62% of hardcore players no longer buy full-price games, survey suggests
According to the report, 38% of Millennials (people aged 30 – 44) and 42% of Gen Z (those aged 14 – 29) said they still buy full-price games, but only 20% Gen X (people aged 46 – 61) said they would. Gen X consumers prioritize Google search for discovering new games, while 85% of Millennials favor YouTube, and Gen Z prioritizes social media. Generation X respondents said they favor single-player games, Generation Z prefers multiplayer titles to almost the same degree, and Millennials are almost evenly split. Generation X and Millennials are more likely to return to games in order to complete or master them, while Gen Z are more motivated by new customization or community content. Consumption of game guides varies by generation, with Gen X indexing higher on tips videos, Millennials on map tools, and Generation Z on build guides. Generation X is highly skeptical of AI and more trusting of brand recognition, being 38% less likely to use AI for discovery and 44% less likely to believe that AI summaries are as good as human ones. submitted by /u/TylerFortier_Photo to r/gaming [link] [comments]

I hate it when games are announced way too early
I hate this practice in the industry where games that don't even actually exist yet or are in a very early stage of production are announced with trailers or teasers and then you dont hear anything about them for years and years, one of the most infamous examples that come to mind for me are the remake for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars Eclipse. submitted by /u/Evening_Boot_2281 to r/gaming [link] [comments]

Vossy gone at Carlton. I feel bad for him bexause he is a decent coach. He was demonstrably a good appointment in 2022 and I think he should be a senior coach somewhere in the AFL. All he did was fail at the same task Dennis Pagan and Mick Malthouse, with 1069 games and 5 premierships between them, failed at too.

Epic Games Store Employees: People Only Came for Free Games, Then Returned to Steam
Epic Games launched its Epic Games Store in 2018 to challenge the dominance of Valve's Steam platform in the PC gaming space. Known for its promotions and free games, the storefront has attracted a large gamer base that quickly adopted the platform. However, two former Epic Games employees claim that the Epic Games Store saw only an initial spike in active users during the free game promotions, with gamers eventually returning to Steam. Many gamers find switching between multiple storefronts to be a cumbersome experience. While free game deals are an excellent way to attract customers initially, the Epic Games Store needs to make further improvements to retain those gamers. Meanwhile, Valve's Steam platform continues to break records for concurrent gamers. Just a few weeks ago, the platform reached 42,318,602 players on Sunday, March 22 of this year. This set a new record, surpassing the previous impressive 42 million concurrent players on January 11 earlier this year. At the time of writing, Valve's Steam platform has 37,053,591 active players, indicating that a large majority keep returning, with no signs of slowing down. The competition between PC gaming platforms will continue as Epic looks to invest more and attract additional gamers to the Epic Games Store. According to Bloomberg, the Epic Games Store grew to a record 78 million monthly active users on PCs. In comparison, Steam handles a similar number of users in just two to three days. Player spending on non-Epic third-party games last year was around $400 million, according to Epic, which is significantly lower than what Valve reports. Third-party game developers earn much less revenue from listing on the Epic Games Store compared to Steam. submitted by /u/Suspicious_Two786 to r/gaming [link] [comments]
