    If this direction gets momentum, I’d expect nostalgia-bait classic “reboot” flooding the market as much as current franchise milking. Am I too pessimistic?

      I mean, they are already put out a lot of games from older franchises that are over 25 years old.

      bomberman - 1983
      Elite Dangerous - 1984
      Dragon Quest - 1986
      Zelda - 1986
      Megami Tensi/Persona - 1987
      Wasteland - 1988
      Prince of Persia - 1989
      Fire Emblem - 1990
      Civ - 1991
      Sonic - 1991
      Mortal Combat - 1992
      Doom - 1993
      Marathon/Halo - 1994
      Warcraft - 1994
      Fallout - 1997
      Balder’s gate - 1998

      And things like the FF remakes seem like they are aimed at older gamers.
