Triple-A fatigue is real for me, so I ask Witchfire creator Adrian Chmielarz where big-budget titles - especially FPS games - might be going wrong.

    I think the last AAA I tried was Baldur’s Gate 3.

    Pretty good tbh.

      I played BG3 and liked it, but stopped because the game seems to have been co-opted by the Far Right

      BG3 is technically an indie game if you go by the literal definition of the term!

      It’s weird to think of a top-down historically-isometric RPG as “AAA”. We’ve come a long way, baby.
