and frankly, "we make ungodly amounts of money almost nearly just by existing, but we don't want to sacrifice a chunk of it for the health of the ecosystem" is an extremely myopic approach
Valve's reverse Robin Hood approach, where games that make millions get a reduction of the cut they have to pay, is freaking ridiculous on paper But this puts it into perspective: it seems like it's just greed. If they were to extend it to small games they'd lose more money than the alternative
its pretty disgusting that indies make valve almost half of its steam revenue but only giant AAAs get sweetheart deals that reduce the % of revenue taken when indies need it way more if the first 100k steam revenue only had 10% revshare way more studios would break even and get to make a 2nd game

Fortnite's Rocket Racing game mode appears to no longer be getting new seasons or official tracks, as Epic Games and Psyonix update it.
This is not just bots. We are seeing more and more submissions by writers with publication records who are almost certainly using AI to create initial drafts and then are trying and failing to edit things into shape.
no, there isn't. if you can't see a path toward something being achievable -- and admit that the version of events you're describing is "made up" -- then that is not a future, definitionally. it's a fantasy
