Coincidentally, unions might be the only things that could still save the AAA side of the games industry...

I think the current AAA system should die. It’s brutal for the people making games and it’s completely unsustainable in the long run.

I'd expect more unionization to mechanically reduce games scope by increasing workers hourly compensation. And progressively remove authority from the MBA guys through giving more power to the devs

That works for me. I’ve come to appreciate games that keep it short but tight over long games full of filler.
