A good example of what's happening in the industry right now is if you look at Spider-Man 2.

So obviously Spider-Man, huge franchise.

The first Spider-Man game that came out a few years ago, you know, it was huge.

They created the second one.

It cost somewhere around $300 million.

Now that's like, that's an Avengers movie, right?

That is an absurd amount of money.

It's an absurd amount of money.

And the game sold really well.

It was critically acclaimed.

And they still did layoffs in that studio.

And so the question is, if the games are too expensive that even a major hit can't make enough money, then what can?

And I think they're stuck there.

The overhead costs are too high.

People want really realistic graphics that are expensive to produce.

So where do you go from there?

I think this is the year of like the revenge of the indie game.

Um, at the top of every year, we of course look ahead and say, okay, what kind of year is this going to be for the industry?

What are the big hits coming out?

Some of those major games like Grand Theft Auto six was delayed.
