What will happen if all the gaming companies merge?
What will happen if all the gaming companies merge? For example, EA, Activision, Rockstar, DICE, 2K, Ubisoft, Bethesda, Crytek, Valve, CD Projekt RED, etc. have teamed up. There would be no problems with financing, since each company had to spend a lot less money creating the game. What kind of game would they make? What do you think?If all gaming companies merge into one large company, then after a while it will split into several small companies.
Will come out complete [deleted]. Everyone will rant, breed demagoguery about whose engine is better. Who will finance. etc
What will happen? And I'll tell you what will happen. There will be a series of mega-AAA games, where there will be: tons of paid DLC (EA), while each of them will be divided into episodes (Telltale Games), a new part will be released every year (Activision), there will be no optimization (Ubisoft), a bunch of hats (Valve), there will be no sane plot (DICE), there will be a bunch of gays (BioWare) and all this will be done on the outdated Gamebryo (Bethesda).
there will be nothing for the end customer. maybe the terms of sale will not change, but it will be necessary to feed the small town of game developers.
in the end, the company will shrink and at the same time some series of games for which there are analogues or will be released less often may disappear. so ultimately hunger and nogamez.
however, this does not mean that new studios will not appear.
Some kind of garbage will turn out. Each company has its own chip in games, and some work only on a certain genre of games, but if they unite, then chaos will turn out - they will not develop, they will argue all the time about what is more important in the game. As a result, the collapse will turn out and the united companies will be separated again. Well, even if you think theoretically what kind of game will turn out, then this game will fail and will cost dearly, since the monopoly lives.
Nonsense, this is even purely theoretically impossible. And there are a billion reasons for that, which I see no point in describing. ITS JAST IMPOSIBL!
