Hey everyone.

This is an impromptu rant I made about wtf are we even talking about with success these days.

I was just browsing videos when I came acrossed a video from inside gaming.

I was kinda stunned by how badly the video was made, and how many points were either wrong, or just straight up insane.

Arc Raiders made at least $500,000,000 on a budget of $75 million. That’s a wild success anywhere in the world, but since it wasnt an inginite CS2 level success it’s called a failure multiple times.

How are we even measuring success anymore?

    I can see that, and if it was a small time creator I would agree.

    These particular people have been in and around the games industry for decades now.

    That’s why it kinda blew me away in the first place hearing how much trash they were slinging.
