they’re right though. it has nothing to do with “defending” anyone, that’s just what AAA means.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAA_(video_game_industry)

What other industry uses the term that way? Every other industry is quality. AAA to refer to size…. Right….

I know that’s how the term is used, it’s just fucking wrong when every other industry uses it differently……

Don’t let them get away with this shit. You are defending them. Notice how your link even says informal……… they are trying to make it a thing, when no other industry uses that way, and other people in the industry are calling it out.

You’re trying to defend this stupid shit.

If you continue to use this incorrect term, it will become a thing, that’s what they are hedging on, people like you letting this happen. AAA means quality, they aren’t putting out quality product so they are trying to change what the term means so they look good. Way to eat that shit right up.

it's all informal marketing jargon in every industry bro. this is not a hill to die on.

And that’s how marketing wins, when everyone just rolls over and accepts it.

Nah, this is just part of a long list of shit the rest of the gaming industry is trying to reverse, stop letting this continue to happen and stop defending it.
