Assassin's Creed actor and metroidvania director Abubakar Salim says "too much money is being spent on games people do not want" by figures "who are not in touch with the medium" and are chasing the next live-service hit.
Speaking with Dexerto, Salim - who stars in House of the Dragon Season 2, played Bayek in Assassin's Creed Origins, and last year released indie Metroidvania Tales of Kenzera: Zau - suggested that the process of making his own game "made me have a much deeper appreciation for developers and the work that goes into it."
