Major publishers are less inclined to take any risks for AAA-titles.
During the last couple of years, many gamers have complained on the AAA-industry for only relying on sequels with proven formulas and not taking any risks, something that unfortunately often translates to less interesting games. Well, unfortunately, we should probably expect even more of this in the future.
Bloomberg reports that during Game Developers Conference in San Francisco that ended yesterday (Friday), several video game executives explicitly said that we should expect safer games in the future, as live service-titles are very expensive to develop and publishers are not willing to take big risks.
