The only split was between developers that like to make loads of graphics and cuts scenes, and gamers in general. Any other group split is an artificial notion made so the developers can trick some gamers into thinking they are on their side.
And developers holding out for specs to give their support shows they are just being lazy instead of trying more often to make games that don't rely on those two traits.
This is something I've noticed for years, and it's unfortunately gotten worse.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
