It's interesting. Despite all the money that these studios have, my favorite games of the past few years have all been indie games (Rimworld, Factorio) or smaller studios (Paradox Plaza games such as EUIV, Stellaris). I understand that the majority of the industry's revenue is generated from these bigger studios, but acquiring first party developers doesn't make me as too concerned. What I'm concerned about is distribution is controlled by a few parties to a higher degree on desktop, like it is on mobile.


Paradox are an absolute gem. My god, these people owe me hundreds of hours of my life! And I'm not really into games.
