Much like the disappearing middle class, the game development market has shifted away from firms of every size and scale to two extremes: countless small indie devs and few massive corporations.

The CEO is confident that you can’t get what they offer anywhere else, due to lack of competition at their scale, so it doesn’t matter how well the game performs: people will still buy it.

It’s almost like this hasn’t happened for the last several Borderlands releases. Like people just keep forgetting the company lies and produces sub-optimal trash at launch.
