All with a dev team <10% the size of numerous "modern" AAA failures much more restricted in scope that should be easier to make, and with the oblivion team also having to create their own engines and dev tools which modern "devs" don't/can't do anymore.
how is this possible? well we looked at the data, and the making-of vid shows a shocking lack of diversity if you click around:

Indies provide a Reprieve from the current State of AAA Gaming (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5824827&forum_id=2#49607609) |

Date: January 22nd, 2026 12:29 AM Author: apoplectic marvelous generalized bond bro I spend the vast majority of my time playing indie games and if i play something aaa it's usually something very focused and intentional, like ninja gaiden or ace combat, but lol just lol @ trannyslop silksong. why would i waste my time with that shit? metroidvania is massively oversaturated as a genre with a bunch of decent games that are all more or less as good as each other. This means one can largely pick them based on aesthetics and personal appeal since there's no way to possibly play all of the games that meet a reasonable standard of quality. So why would I ever play the tranny game? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5824827&forum_id=2#49607940) |

AI should help with this some time soon |

a competent white male is worth 10 dei millenials. Actually you can't even model this linearly because you just get worse and worse results the more dei millenials you throw at something. |
