 Maybe. i just dont see the reason to make things more complicated.

 I dont like many popular games myself, actually. That doesnt make me call people who buy them "mindless sheeps" or whine on internet forums what games I like more dont sell as much.

   If something is popular that means a lot of people like it. Which means that there is something to like about it.

S-so

Does tht mean that by your own logic, you have bad taste?

   No. I try to look at it differently: there is no such thing as bad taste.

   Look: I used to watch Super Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon when I was a kid. Back then I thought it was amazing. but I dont like it anymore - that doesnt mean the cartoon sucks. That only means that cartoon is not for me.

   Games are targeted at different people with different tastes. Me not being a part of one group doesnt mean that group sucks and has a bad taste in games.

 

I see.

Where I became confused on this matter was the point of "better sales = better game" seems to imply an objective standard of quality, whereas now I believe you mean that it appeals to more people. Is that closer?
