As noted in the article, there's definitely a reallocation of time/resources in the industry which is reflected in recent layoffs. But I don't think there's any chance that gaming is in decline this year, and in 5-10 years there will be more games, gamers, and game developers than ever (although how we define who a game developer is may evolve to include more of the UGC in modding community)
Right, I thought so too, but all the voices on the internet, the constant layoffs, and general misgivings made me a little uncertain. Thanks for laying it all out here.
The outlook for the future of the gaming industry in 2024 is exciting. The crisis is creating new opportunities for innovation and creative solutions. We can't wait to see how developers will transform challenges into unique gaming experiences! https://servreality.com/cross-platform-game-development/
