| Mnementh said: Ah, more powerful hardware don't mean you HAVE to make better textures, particle-effects, whatever. Even simple looking games can be successful (Bit.Trip). But the dev-costs may increase at the start, but in time some dev-tools will be developed to get the cost-factor more controlled. So that's no real problem. Only game-devs who can't think of another improvement to their games than graphics will suffer. |
But how much will that take, 1 or 2 years maybe? and how many companies/studios will disappear in that time, maybe 20 or 30?, maybe more?, I think at the end we will have less variety, the developers/producers will take even less risks and that will hurt the industry
