They will succeed too.

Maybe, except their games will get more and more shit, and there's plenty of alternatives in terms of games to play.

Maybe I'm too cynical, but it doesn't really matter. Bad games, verification cans, whatever they don't really matter. Gamers are a consumer population. They will make a lot of noise but as long as they continue to consume nothing will change and the enshitification machine will continue to churn.
