The games industry is undergoing a 'generational change,' says Epic CEO Tim Sweeney: 'A lot of games are released with high budgets, and they're not selling'

Tim Sweeney apparently thinks big budget games fail because... They aren't social enough? I personally feel that this is BS, but what do you guys think? Is there a trend to support his comments?

I can't wait til I have to pay a subscription for each bolt and screw in my car

"AutoSecure, the revolution in vehicle assembly fastener solutions... Now only $14.99 per month! (per unit, fees apply)"

News tomorrow morning: 3 killed in unavoidable one-in-a-million freak accident when automated vehicle screws unfasten at highway speeds, driver negligence suspected

Reddit comments tomorrow afternoon: Wake up, sheeple! The driver agreed to waive liability in the Terms&Conditions when he decided to have a car to get to the job he needed in order to not die, so it's his own fault if you think about it Logically.
