What is an FTC?
If you’re being serious, that’s the US Federal Trade Commission, which is the agency in charge of regulating US markets, and suing to block mergers and other anti-competitive behaviour.
Yeah, not American, I was serious thank you for the info. (edit: forgot to say thanks)
I think expectations have grown astronomically since 2004, budgets have ballooned, graphical fidelity and animation quality has skyrocketed, development team headcounts have gone through the roof and many games just have more systems than they did before.
Games are less frequent because they take a lot longer to make, I read the other day that Halo 2 was apparently churned out in 10 months, these days even games building on other games foundations such as Tears of the Kingdom can take 5 years to come out.
Tears of the Kingdom taking five years actually kind of shocks me, because it doesn’t play that much different from a re-skinned version of its predecessor.
