Well, the article says they were in QA, sooo I guess we're the QA now, and they can just slap an early access label on everything.
The sane answer to that question is to build smaller games that can afford to sell fewer copies, but they're not going to do that.
They won't, indie gaming will pick up some of the slack but we are witnessing the end of a golden era in game development.
Also I could care less about the AAA studios themselves. What is tragic is that without AAA studios the stepstones for advancing in a career of game development has become an order of magnitude farther apart and less realistic (especially if you have a family or something and need some amount of consistency).
