When Star Wars (1976) came out, it cost 12 million to make and had almost no advertising. The “advertising” was word-of-mouth.
Modern games and movies wouldn’t need to set aside 100 million dollar advertising budgets (on TOP of the cost of their product) if they would simply stop writing shit.
Then they wouldn’t have to make up the advertising costs with subtransactions (micro transactions doesn’t seem like the right word anymore when they cost over $5 a pop).
