It's because creating more complex system requires more than a linear increase in development and then the development system has to also be more complex because it requires more people and communication between them gets harder. Everything grows exponentially.

I just think that fundamentally, the games we imagine and are promised that should be possible with the processing power we have today is just impossible to create because the systems are just too complex(costs too many hours of skilled labor, impossible to earn back).

AAA games mostly seem like prettier versions of games from late 200x's. Moment to moment everything is higher fidelity but the gameplay systems are just the same.

(I haven't played the game but mostly because Skyrim was also mostly boring to me because the gameplay systems were actually really shallow and I didn't care about the "wow big open world" anymore because its not a novelty anymore)

In terms of modern writers I’m not sure if something like Pickettys Capital in the 21st Century would count, I haven’t read it and not sure if he’s a Marxist. Michael Hudson has good modern analysis as well.

He's not. A critique: https://www.yanisvaroufakis.eu/egalitarianisms-latest-foe-a-critical-review-of-thomas-pikettys-capital-in-the-twenty-first-century/ (And varoufakis' is not what most people would consider a Marxist, and I don't think that 'egalitarianisms' is marxist goal anyway)

This is the opposite of a genius idea.

Crypto libertarian argument. Credit scores are bad but just grabbing the US state debt you'd only do if you'd think state-debt is a morally bad thing, which it isn't.

Open office I worked at constantly had music playing("Just put on headphones", management being too dumb/selfcentered to understand that that raises the noise floor and makes it so people have to talk louder) and people constantly calling.
