Oh please.What a load of bullshit.So how games like P 5 and Nier Automata can be already successful with 1 million unit sold?

Its simply a matter of budgeting your game right.Western studios either blow out of the proportion their budget in the development part or in the marketing.Or they just plain dosent know how to manage a project.

But being honest, the REAL reason why western studios are walking away from at the very least, single player focused games is because they cant charge extra with them, either by microtransactions or lootboxes.Its simply easier to make a multiplayer game and be done with it, then implementing a multiplayer in one game that already has a strong single player content(because these companies NEED to have microtransactions and the only way is through a multiplayer mode)

Its sad really.It also shows why MS is losing the war.

Yeah is the easy route/lazy way (multiplayer only games are much less work).... but its a gamble, with these games.

The problem is the Games as a service market is in tough competition with one another, because of how long these games last.

Simply put, there isnt room for alot of these GasS type games.

Look at Lawbreakers, Battleborn ect.

For every one that its a mega success theres 10 others that fail to do well.
