‘Hit a wall’
While watching the PlayStation showcase, he claimed, "I think gaming has hit a wall that is incredibly difficult to breach. Because they have a lot of successful IPs, right? And a lot of games (are) starting to feel, like, the same thing. Big map, big quests, main quests, off-quests, loot items, puzzle. It's starting to feel... it's all the same, which sucks!"
He then started his take on indie games which have the potential to stand out. xQc said, "In my opinion, the way; one of the ways to breach that wall, okay, is to explore new ideas. Okay? Such as... what if you had things like Dark and Darker? It has a good concept. You bring concepts with good quality and good development. And you bring these games to life. A bunch of really good games that we play these days are s**t! Right?
He also added, "There are small studios, there are small things. But who cares what the execution is? Because the concept is good. I wish some companies took that concept and threw some other s**t... just saw it through! For them, it's a risk. It's just a risk to an old IP. Refresh it, whatever the f**k. Really, the same thing, and bank on it." He also stated about the future victory of indie games, "There are so many small games right now, that if they were executed at a AAA level, would go massive! Crazy! Think... of the other people that played Dark and Darker! It's a good concept! Execute that vision... properly, and don't worry about it. Same thing for Vampire Survivors. True! All these games, like... there's a way, but nobody explores it! They're just too scared, man."
'Gaming is dead'
One YouTube user wrote, "x cant talk when every game he plays he doesnt finish, he speedruns, and doesnt pay attention to the story" while another said, "Gaming is dead if you play the same type of games but if you expand your horizons gaming is great". A comment read, "Bold take from someone who barely plays any games" while the fourth user wrote, "He hasn’t even played any of the new games. Also when he plays game he RUSHES through them missing like half of the fucking game. He does this with any game no matter how good it is."
