What do you mean by "outcompete"? There've been some extremely successful small-studio games recently (the one that comes to mind is Silksong, which dropped last September)

> Yes, Troy existed - we know that because we found it.

> is a clear improvement

I remember going from usenet, with it's tree comments (when the worked) to flat forums and being annoyed at the change.
