On this channel, you’ll find long-form video essays about gaming’s biggest stories from studio collapses and corporate greed to the creative risks that still push the medium forward. I break down industry trends, publisher decisions, and the economics behind how games are made, marketed, and sold. Whether it’s GTA 6, Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3, Path of Exile 2, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Pokémon, or the next doomed live-service experiment, I cover how the industry’s biggest names keep shaping and breaking the games we play. From deep dive analysis on publishers like EA, Bungie, Blizzard, Activision, Ubisoft, Sony, and Microsoft to commentary on indie hits like Palworld and Expedition 33, every video cuts through the marketing to get to what actually matters: how this industry works, who it’s failing, and why players deserve better.

This is the most industry plant game of the year.
The average Stellar Blade combo attack requires more button presses than it requires to beat Mixtape.
"Indie game" *look inside *Backed by a Billionaire
Ed, Edd, n Eddy is a better representation of growing up in the mid to late 90s early 2000s than this.
Game has more 10/10s than actual players.
"I didn't have to use my controller. 10 out of 10!" - games "journalists".
Super easy with almost no game-play...that's a dream game for IGN reviewers
“Mixtape, a childhood I never had from an era I hate” 10/10 IGN
Fake 90’s, if it was genuine, they’d be calling things that sucked; “Gay”. No way in hell they have the balls.
If we had an 'oscar bait' equivalent in gaming, this would be it.
As a millennial who started gaming at 10 years old on PS1, I couldn't agree more. These people are nothing like us but share our birth years...
It's not nostalgia. It's anemoia. It's the FEELING of nostalgia for a time and period that most young players have never experienced.
I've been seeing people talk about this game for days and I just found out that these characters are supposed to be millennial metal heads. They look like 2010s hipsters.
Mofos don't even know what a cassette tape looks like. 11/10 GOTY.
The hilarious part is the nostalgic Gen z reviewers would lose their shit if they heard how people actually talked in the 90s.
If this is a game, then every movie that has a dvd menu is a game
Crimson desert a 6 and mixtape a 10. Absolute lunacy🗿
The villain is a responsible father? Yeah, makes sense. The writers make it obvious that they didn't actually grow up.
The game doesn’t have a section where you take bong hits and play guitar hero 3 for a year straight so it doesn’t define my millennial experience
A game for people who feel nostalgic for an adolescence they only witnessed in movies. A coming of age story for journalists who never came of age, despite being in their 40s.
