Between all the angry videos lambasting modern gaming, consistent complaints amongst most forums and social media, and this new major wave of gamers logging off from modern gaming and gaming consumerism (sales on older games, piracy, older hardware, backlog bros) do you think any of these companies know or are they really just blind and tone deaf to the common gamer's view of them?
I feel like in the past these companies used to bend to our whims more easily. Something like the 3DS price drop would be near impossible to pull off today, or even as recently ago as the Sonic movie design- they probably would have gone through with that ugly design in modern times as opposed to 2020. These days though they seem to care less and less, be more deaf to ever increasing screams of hatred and disillusionment from most gamers. Maybe they do know, and they just don't care. They think keeping silent is the best strategy. Or maybe they really are ignorant and are too deep in their own circle of wealth and decadence to care about the consumers they serve?
Or maybe they do know, and they consider that outrage as marketing. There was a great video on this made a while ago, someone said how these companies are betting on you becoming outraged by their consistent mediocrity and flippance in order to promote their stuff.
