Too many games around today, says BioWare

What disappoints you in today's gaming industry? Asked this question, BioWare co-founder Ray Muzyka replied that it's the fact that there are too many games released.

 

 

In a recent interview with Develop, Muzyka expounded on this comment, saying, "It's interesting, because it's very, very busy, it makes it very hard as a player to keep up. The releases clump up - even though that is changing a little bit.

 

 

For us, we have to play our games, play competitor's games, play other relevant games, and play the handful of games we just really want to play more of and finish. I try and play two or three hours a night, but that's hard and it's not enough."

 

 

Of course two to three hours a night isn't enough to check out all that today's gaming industry has to offer. Then again, the guys at BioWare sure are a busy bunch, especially now that they're teasing a new game. They just don't have the luxury of time like some gamers do. We can't blame them if they're overwhelmed by the sheer volume of games coming out by droves nowadays. What about you?

this makes the competition really neck and neck. the good thing about it, though, is that it keeps the devs on their toes, thereby benefiting the gamers the most. ideally, that is. do you think this abundance in game releases is a problem for today's industry?

Yeah I agree there is a massive amount out there it seems... I usually get back logged with games and end up with a growing list of half-done games... but I don't think there should be less... when they're so good.

I believe in quality over quantity. If there were less games it would be a lot easier to find a good game, but nowadays you have to wade through all the crap to find a gem.

Is he for real?

Today's games are a piece of shit, and for that reason I rather play old games than new/present (from this generation).

Please stfu, Muzyka.

For once we agree. I find myself passing up perfectly good games simply because there isn't time in a day to get through them all. Hell, I'm lucky if I get 2 hours to play a game.

I also find myself playing a game for about an hour just to uninstall it because it sucks balls compared to whatever other game I could be playing.

Theoretically more games equals more competition equals better quality games, so why does it feel like games are the worst they've ever been.

games are being released unfinished. if a game plays like a beta it should NOT be released.

There may be more games but it doesn't mean better games.

I know Bioware, it's just SO HARD to play games these days.

For the GOOD games having DLC available provides content for the available game time. The soso games can go in the dollar bin. Read game reviews.
