Well, when the reward being dangled is a Fortnite-sized chunk of the industry worth billions by itself it's hard to suggest that the real answer is more, smaller, less profitable releases. Especially with public companies with a mandate to seek endless growth. It's not like big traditional single player games are a surefire thing, either.
It's a bit of a rough time for the industry right now, frankly. So... on that note, happy holidays everybody!
