Being maybe more like Hollywood - kick out a few wide-aiming games that make huge profits but use those profits to invest in lower cost higher risk games that are designed to be good, not to sell millions. They're never going to do that. The simple fact that they're beholden to fucking stockholders means they will try to make every game sell Call of Duty numbers. So they'll continue to produce high-value, low-gameplay shit, and many of the gameplayers will continue to buy it, which is fine by me. Quite frankly, if this works, and Wasteland 2 and SRR become really good games, I don't even WANT publishers to go back into making this type of game, because they've proven time and time again that they'll fuck shit up with their "by committee" approach anyway. I'll gladly prefund the old-school awesome games, made by devs I can trust, and ignore the publishers for the rest of my life. Other than Bethesda and CD Projekt, there really isn't any big studio anymore that makes anything I'm interested in anyway. Creston
