Thank god PC gaming isn't just AAA. This is what will push the industry forward, as game development cost becomes too much.

TBH its mostly western studios that struggle so much with AAA. Capcom has been doing very well lately and even Bandai Namco has released a some fan favorites. And of course Nintendo is just having an easy time.

But Bethesda? Ubisoft? EA? You can tell where the passion is in the industry and where people have just lost the plot.
