Also, to my knowledge, the PS5 still lags behind the PS4 in terms of sales, despite the significant boost that COVID-19 provided.
Each generation has around half the number of games as the previous. This does get a bit murky with the advent of shovelware in online stores, but my point remains.
I think this only proves is that games are now ridiculously expensive to create and met the quality standards expected. Maybe AI will improved this in this future. Take-Two has confirmed that GTA6's budget has exceeded US$1 billion, which is mind-blowing.
Its sequel Saros is coming out next year too.
There’s also Spider-Man 2, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Astro Bot, Death Stranding 2, Ghost of Yotei…
Their output hasn’t been worse than the PS4 at all imo.
