More and more games seem to suck on thier own, but can be great with mods. You have entire platforms like roblox where all the games are more or less mods. How long until the platform itself is community created and managed and the viability of games created by companies dissappears?
We might be comparing apples and oranges here. You mentioned you worked in the industry I believe. Was that at decent sized companies where there were like 10 or more devs working on a game?
