Hell it's like an abstract artist being told, you are no longer doing abstract art, your now doing anime art, so get cracking....To this abstract artist, he's lost the freedom to express and progress the form of art which he loves. So really it's not that they don't want to change per se, more that they want to refine and progress what they've been doing all these years with out being hindered. take that as you will. |
You using the wrong analogy friend. A better one would be an artist who kept wanting to paint the same type of art over and over again giving only slight improvements to each version. Then along comes another artist who paints something emphasising different artistic values and makes a ton of money because of it. The first artist then declares that he doesn't want to make then new type of art and keeps doing what he was doing.
"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."
