Why don't we get kino tie-in games like this anymore?

because those "fun" devs are long gone. now the field is filled with millennials and zoom zooms who love to suck the corpo/invester cock

Zillenial born in 2002 here. 2005 to 2011 was the golden era, I don't know if it was the end of the world prediction, Obama winning reelection or Mass Effect 3 ending, but something changed in 2012.

Takes too long to make now, the hype has gone by the game release.

Easier, cheaper, more profitable to just license a skin to Fortnite or Call of Duty or whatever

>>715988773
Just don't make it a $200m AAA project that takes a decade to make?

>eat ass, asphalt eater!

Much quicker to put a skin in Fortnite the week your movie hits theaters or your TV show comes onto Netflix.

Honestly this is the best answer

If you're date of birth starts with a 2 you are just a zoomer. Zillennials are like 1997-1999.

>post 9/11
>in any way golden
It was after the golden era, but things were running on fumes for a little while after. Once smartphones and Web 2.0 came along, it was done, and nothing good could ever happen again.

wrong chuddie

>>715990858
That's just retarded. "Zillennial" is a very tiny transitional window between the millennial and zoomer generations, not an entire generation. This transitional period exists between every two generation and it's for people who were alive before the generational shift but not old enough to experience the older generation in any meaningful way. Sorry that this is how you have to find out but you are a certified zoomer.

>All these replies
The answer is much simpler: companies don't know their audience

>>715988472 (OP)
because passionate gamers (anon) dont make games passionately (have a job)

>anymore

Hit & Run was a massive anomaly. For every semi-decent licensed game we had 30 total garbage ones.

I like how everyone at least agrees that OP's game is good. A rare sight on /v/.

>>715988737
How do you know it was the golden era if you were only 3 to 9 years old?

>>715993748
because I am not a nigger

>>715991513
Sorry chuddie the facts are not on your side

>>715988472 (OP)
BECAUSE OF ONE WORD: LICENSING

This is the reason why Lord of the Rings and Star Wars based games are scarce.
Racing games also suffer from the same issue.

>>715988737
Kek if you really wanna try to make zillennial a thing it's gonna be 96 to 00 at the latest
t. Born 96 and I'm as millennial as a zoomer can be

>>715991513
This is the fact, lmao at zoomers being desperate to not be a zoomer

the only thing that's died off completely are specific movie release tie ins. licensed games in general are still made they have just been greatly diminished like any game concept that's not the most vanilla company marque flagship.
>simpsons crazy taxi clone?
>don't have time, we're making a 60 hour open world title that's been in development for 5 years.

>>715988472 (OP)
Because before you need something good to tie

>crazy taxi clone
Hit and Run is kiddy GTA.

>>715988472 (OP)
Why make a good or high effort tie in when they could make a mobile game

>>715988715
fpbp

>>715992268
A garbage tie-in from the 2000's is still a better game than AAA effort games in current year.
