TheFallen: "2. If the TLOU:R wasn't a thing, we wouldn't be getting anything else to replace it's absence and in fact we would just have one less PS4 game to play." You: That isn't necessarily true. It's the whole reason why Sony is focusing on Indie titles. Me: "TLoU:R is the whole reason Sony is focusing on indies." |
You're confused.
Sony is focusing on indies because there are fewer 3rd party developers creating games. The cost of development is getting higher. TLoU:RE amplifies this fact. Shuhei Yoshida said this himself:
"“We’ve been saying that the number of AAAs might be getting smaller because the cost of development for AAAs is getting higher,” he said. “But there are so many indie games and great games coming out almost every week or every other week. We’re seeing it on PS4. I hope you’re seeing it as well.”"
