You haven't even played the games I mentioned. How on earth would you know? Also, take a look at the credits of Crash Bandicoot, and learn something about how games are made. 84 people, including the publisher and marketing. Naughty Dog itself was only 9 people. Here's Indika, a cinematic puzzle/story game, not a far cry from 2018's God of War without the combat, an indie game from last year; the development studio dwarfs Naughty Dog from the 90s. UFO 50 is an indie game from last year that has 50 full, new, original games contained in it, designed to portray a fictional game development studio's catalog from the 80s. It was made by 6 people over the course of 7 years. And I'm clueless, huh?

And I’m clueless, huh?

Yes, very. So clueless in fact anybody who has any idea of the actual effort that went into the development of Crash Bandicoot, not just 'team numbers,' would laugh at you.

I'm glad you're so committed. Your commitment keeps giving me more reasons why you shouldn't be taken seriously. It's really just funny to me at this point.
