Yeah, it happens, but not all the time. And it's usually not the done at the demand of the consumer.In fact, most of the time, a large group of consumers are complaining about these changes (just look at a Witcher Series thread on this very site about the casting of a black female in an intended white female role). That's the key difference with video games. Consumers are so entitled they think can demand creatives make a custom experience for them. I personally think creatives should put out what they want and we vote on whether we like the art or not through our wallets just as it is in EVERY OTHER MEDIUM. It's not like entertainment should be ordered ala cart unless that's how the creative is selling it. Otherwise, if consumers are dictating what the art should be, the artistry is sucked out of it. |
Sorry but I don't agree with you. It's not DEMANDING. It's people that can't get into the experience they offer and are REQUESTING changes. The dev may or may not listen and that may or may not make it a better product.
But the bad part is other gamers attacking people requesting it as if they were inferior gamers because of their request.
