    Oh no doubt. It’s a shame too. We saw the death of the mid-level developer long ago.

    When I go to cons I try to buy any smaller self-published titles I see, but wish the market could support smaller devs while remaining consumer-friendly with a “coop” publisher. An entity that can eat a loss while still finding gems that would be lost to time if stuck on a digital store.

    That isn’t to say that smaller titles are dead. Currently I look out for stuff published by Soedesco, GS2 Games, Team17, Microids, EastAsiaSoft, etc etc.

      I feel that a mid level developer either evolved into a triple a behemoth(or merged) or died out. It’s really sad.
