The executives, investors and accountants making the decisions that are ruining games are not millenials.

    To be fair, "generations" are bullshit anyway

    How quickly the goalposts move, very convenient

    But yeah, I generally agree, I'm not the one that framed the discussion that way.

    The only meaningful lines of division are along class groups, as the upper class continually consolidates wealth and decision-making power. It's just that most rich people are also old.

    Dude chill the fuck out.

    I'm not the guy you're responding to, but seriously you're the idiot here.

    The average age of a manager is 45 that means there are several that are younger and several that are older. Some may indeed be millennials. Maybe not.

    Get "logiced" idiot! But foreal just chill out. What did that other guy ever do you other than suggest some managers might be millennials?

    You're tone policing a shitposting sub but I'm the one who needs to chill okay sure

    If the average age is above any millennial, they couldn't be the majority group. It makes no sense to pin blame on a younger generation when the reins of power are being clung to by the elder generation across all imaginable contexts, not just game development.

    That guy said "many are". Not most or majority or anything like that. I suppose it's possible they edited their comment.

    Sure man I'll give up on the tone policing. You're still an idiot going around calling other people idiots for no reason. Check your ego bro. That's all I was saying

    They're Elder Millennials at best (born in the 80's, maybe late 70's). Or do they qualify as another generation ?

    I was about to say the same, most management is still gen x, even boomers (fucking retire please). Some low level managers are millennials, but these are not the people calling the shots. As usual, money hoarders make decisions, and you can accuse us millennials of a lot of things but having any money on us.

    You might want to look, as usual, to indie millennial game devs. There you will see how we call the shots. We are nowhere that good as gen x indies, but we have our thing.
