No one wants mid-tier games these days. It's all about the indies and the AAA. All that's in between is uninteresting, at least that's the feeling I get these days.

You get what you pay for and low budget and indie titles rarely have that shining gem in the large pool of crap. There's a lot of great mid level budget  games thoughout past generations.  Most of the best games haven't been your AAA blockbusters but the mid level offerings.  


Oh, I have a lot of interest in the future of mid-tier games as the majority of games I enjoy belong in that space, it's just that the industry in general doesn't seem to care much and gamers often focus on either AAA or indie games.

If the mid-tier game was a recognizable brand like MediEvil it can attract some attention. For new IPs the mid-tier might not be a great idea but I think it's the best way to go with reviving some classic IPs and fill the gaps between major releases. 

I believe that mid-tier games needs to make a return, both for reviving existing franchises and making new IP's. The video game industry needs a good dose of AA, A, B etc. games to stay healthy as far as I'm concerned.
