I agree quite strongly with you on what looks to be a deeply disappointing trend that large, publicly-traded gaming companies are following.  However, there is no reason to believe that the same trends experienced by nearly all stock prices are somehow attributable to the quality of recent AAA game releases.  Looking at the charts of major indices (Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&amp;P 500) for the same time period, we can see a matching trend.  Other market factors like the anticipated inversion of the yield curve and trade war concerns are much more likely the drivers behind the market correction, not industry/company specific investor sentiment.<br><br>Sadly, and I believe you alluded to this, the opposite is likely true - investors generally like companies that are swimming in easy profits.  This encourages the very quick-profit behavior that we'd like to see ending from the developers of some of the greatest games of our time.  We cannot rely on the stock values as a way to remind them how they got to where they are, much less for them to "come home."  It may just be the way of things.  Keep supporting companies with passion that make the games we like and they will inevitably step in to pick up where others have left off.
