Who are these "analysts"? And why should I care?

Wanting the games industry to constantly grow is corpo speak, and what shareholders want. I just want good games. And there's already a lot of good games out there I haven't had time to play yet. Fuck these asshats, and their lust for growth.

I generally like how small studios don't try to make hyper realistic graphics and force crunch time on their employees.

The article presents such a dystopian and shitty vision of how the videogames industry should be. Keep growing or else!
