GTA 6's delay doesn't mean the games industry's in trouble - it's already
dead - Eurogamer.net. "But over time this will change. There'll be fewer
triple-A games in the traditional sense, and those that remain will be
exceptions, either in the dwindling GTA mold - if GTA 6 took 12 years, how
long until GTA 7? Does it change the approach entirely, to something faster
like the olden days? Or even arrive at all? - or from platform holders with
secondary incentives, or the still independent studios such as Larian, that
know their limits and need only turn enough profit to fund the next one. Or,
as we're already seeing, in the form of ever more prevalent remasters and
ports of games that seemed to barely come out yesterday."
