Is it a hellscape?
The last two GOTYs have no micro transactions. The new Elden Ring DLC is more of a traditional expansion
Indie gaming is alive and well and it’s easier than ever to develop and publish.
It says "digital economic landscape", so not just games and microtransactions, but having a distribution platform vendor-lock you in, not actually owning pieces of media you purchased on that platform and in a broader sense even art as a commodity
Not to mention the infinite supply of awesome indie games I have access to at the click of my mouse..
Also all the live-service cash-grab high budget AAA keep failing one after another.
