Date: November 8th, 2026 8:00 AM Author: cowgod It’s over for the whole industry. Everything would just move to live-service or nothing if that makes a huge dent in single player game sales.
The State of Gaming is already Grim imo and AAA Budgets have exploded btw |

Date: November 7th, 2026 11:41 PM Author: michael doodikoff graphics cards that cost $750 in 2025 now cost $1500 - and just this week they went up like $150.
RAM costs are through the roof
Mostly because chinese AI firms are giving huge contracts to the companies making the graphics cards and RAM, so much that the AMD CEO just said that they were a "data center-first and AI-focused computing company"
You can't buy a prebuilt with a 5070ti or 9070xt for under $2000 now - both formerly considered upper mid tier cards - hell you could find prebuilts of these for like $1200-1400 not that long ago
I went to Microcenter today - they had a couple prebuilts with 5080 and 5090s of them that cost $7000-9000
PS5 and Xbox, which are both 6 years old, are more expensive now than years ago - a PS5 Pro costs $1000 now
And these high costs are here to stay, not going away, and might even get worse still
Gaming is now a hobby of the idle rich, not for kids anymore

Date: November 8th, 2026 10:41 AM Author: cowgod Indie and AAA games both suck imo
Just play AAAA games if anything like GTA, and Japanese games. No one calls Death Stranding 2 or FF7R or Zelda OOT Remake AAA. AAA implicitly means Western imo. |
