For people dumb founded as to why developers like GAAS, the proof is right there, look at what kids are freaking playing the most.

ROBLOX is another one that doesn't get talked about, but way more people would rather play this:

Than this:

It's not even close either, lol, Roblox is way, way, way, way, more popular with the up and coming generation of gamers.
And Roblox looks so bad it makes some of the LEGO games look great, lulz. 

This is one of those truths that actually hurts to hear....

And yes, its not even close, Lego games look a million times better, and probably play better as well (I've never played roblox, and dont intend every to either).

Fun story: A few weeks ago I was on vacation at one of those beach all-inclusive resorts and they had a pretty upscale daycare/kids area, so I was dropping off my kiddo. The kids area was pretty stocked, they had like a bunch of TVs, one is showing the Mario movie, but they even had a PS5 and XBox Series X. 

The overwhelming majority of the kids were gathered around the XBox to my surprise playing Roblox, while like one kid was playing Spider-Man on the PS5, lol. 

These kids are definitely a different generation, lol. It's another reason I think developers who are still operating like the industry is 20 years in the past and chasing the graphics dragon could very easily get themselves into big trouble. These kids raised on smartphones and thinking no budget Tiktok videos are high entertainment don't give two fucks about graphics in a lot of cases. You're going to end up making games for 40 year olds trying to relive their 20s and spending absurd budgets if you're chasing nothing but graphics.
