It’s true. Reviewers rave about a game, I pick it up and play it, and they’re raving about a new one before I’ve finished that last one. I’ve got a list of 20+ games that came out this year that I still haven’t gotten around to. I might get through 5 of them before the new year. And you know, if wouldn’t hurt my ability to play more games if more of them were shorter.

    I literally can’t. The article is speaking from the industry perspective of sustaining its jobs though.

      There are enough people to buy the new games. The market for games has expanded along with the number of games in the market

        Did you read the article at all? That is the entire point. That there are too many games relative to the number of gamers.

          Lots of people here didn’t read the article and took the headline to be a personal problem rather than an economic one, lol.
