He does have a point. Bobby Kotick's philosopy has made him a ton of cash but really hurt creativity in the industry. Why do something new when you can make billions off the same old product with a couple of tweaks...
I've seen a lot of argument on both sides of the field but honestly...we haven't seen anything yet. I'll feel anticipation when I see something exciting. Sadly the best thing I've seen come out of the games industry this past couple of years.....were tech demos. Quantic Dream , SE with Agni's Philosophy, and Kojima had some impressive tech demos. Things could be promising, but until I've actually seen some impressive games (and gameplay footage), I'm not sold on either.
