I kinda agree. Back in the days, I was waiting for new games. Now, there are dozens of games waiting for me every time I complete one. It seems to be impossible to play everything nowadays even if you only do that. It’s not a big issue for us of course (we just have to accept we cannot play everything, and choose wisely how to use our playing time), but I can see this being an issue for the industry.

The solution to "too many games" is to make better games. Instead of making 3-4 "good" games, make 1-2 great games that stand out above the rest.

That's the way markets work, if there's too much competition, set yourself apart by being better in a meaningful way.
