Legendary 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rockstar Games producer says the games industry ꦰneeds to work smarter, not harder, if it wants to continue to thrive.

The industry is going through a bit of a rough spot at the moment, with prominent studios like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Monolith Productions and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Arkane Austin being shut over the past year and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:even more facing layoffs, like Bungie and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rocksteady. Even a game as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:monumentally successful as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Rivals ended up with澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: layoffs to its US staff. Many are hoping that the release of GTA 6 will 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:lea🗹d to the gaming🤪 market growing again and help get 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:people back into industry jobs. While not involved in the upcoming game, Rockstar veteran ඣL💫eslie Benzies has his own advice for the industry.

Benzies – who is now working on the upcoming shooter MindsEye with his studio Build a Rocket Boy – spoke to . During the interview he talked about why he thinks the industry is in such a precarious place, saying, "There are no more hours in the day, there are no more humans emerging that play video games, so there's a finite user base. There are so many games, and I think we're starting to feel the effects of that over the past year or so, in closures and layoffs." While figures like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Steam doubling in size since 2020 maybe refute the claim that there are "no more humans emerging that play video games," Benzies is right that there are more games than ever trying to take attention away from players, with some like Fortnite having endless amounts for players to do.

Benzies offered his advice on what studios should be doing in the wake of everything, saying, "These days, you have to look at your analytics. You've got to see what people want to play… I think we as an industry need to get smarter, to know, 'Will people actually want to play this?'" Of course, not everyone feels the same way. 澳洲幸🔜运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 boss Johan Pileste❀dt recently said, ""A lot of publishers try to play it safe by t💟aking safe bets, but one thing that's guaranteed is those safe bets are a death sentence," and urged studios, "Don't copy others, instead, think about what you want to make and take a gamble on it."

However, Benzies did say that experimentation is a natural thing: "we might go off on a tangent that people don't want." But added, "This is one of the benefits of Arcadia [Build a Rocket Boy's user-generated content systems]. We can build small, almost test levels, spend a million quid building something, and if it gets 𓂃good engagement, we'll go build a proper productꦓion of it."

Benzies also told Edge that MindsEye will belong to everyone in a similar vein to Roblox and Minecraft servers.
