| Mr Khan said: Not strictly an issue of "hate what's popular," it's a matter of "what's popular is pulling resources from the kinds of games *i* want made," much like a lot of the hate for companies creating "casual divisions" and such. The millions of dollars spent to advertise your FPS of choice could be spent on a jaw-dropping racer, or something |
This.
Even the days (late 90s) when jRPGs were the popular genre, I don't remember it pulling down all the other genres. It just seemed like there used to be more variety. Now it's converging to FPS and casual games.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
Conservatives: Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.
