There are people who like to see AAA industry fall with the believe that this will lead to more creative and quality indie games to flourish. Do you agree with this sentiment?
Ask a Game Dev
MAY 29, 2025
I don't think that will happen. Indie games aren't being held back by AAA games right now, they're held back by the natural size limit of their own audiences and their ability to market themselves to players. The vast majority of players who quit playing Call of Duty in a AAApocalypse scenario aren't going to look for indie FPS games to fill that void since there won't be any.

On the topic of old temporary solutions, how is the hacky solutions explained when a new hire is brought in to work on a game or an entire new guard comes in to keep an older game updated with content or running? Do you get a bunch of instructions like “don’t touch this code from E3 2018, as everything breaks when anything changes it” or is learning old code debt left to trial and error for new blood?

People don't often question why things are the way they are. We typically accept the explanation of "these things have always been this way" as a valid reason for most things, and that includes the tribal people who didn't eat certain things out of tradition and not because they knew that those forbidden foods were poisonous or toxic. In my experience all code, hacky or not, tends to be like Chesterton's Fence.
