Niches exist because they’re already filled

People tend to chase trends because it is selling like hot cakes and therefore deemed safe. Everyone wants a piece. Executives feel the same. However, only very few realise that the market become over-saturated as it becomes more competitive because of tunnel vision towards digging any potential profits that may or may not be there.
Also, even if you do realise the market is going to become over-saturated, you know that stepping out of that market will only yield space for your competitors. It's better for you that nobody makes that money, rather than that the other guy does, and then buries you in the next cycle.
I mean it doesn't look so good for the AAA studios tho
Because they want to chase that annual recurring revenue stream. Make game once - make money forever. What these executives don’t realize is how hard it is to make such game. They seem to believe if they throw just enough money at it, a profitable game will come out.
Unrelated to the meme but I have that same monitor in the image. Pretty good monitor.
