I wonder if most game developers hate making the slop the average braindead gamer likes (which they probably have to due to pressure from the corporation they work at). Or how developers feel about catering to such a repulsive audience.
At the same time it's so weird how triggered gamers get when developers make a game that is influenced by their tastes or world views. Like it's their fucking game. Try make an alpha game or whatever the fuck the average braindead gamer wants if you feel so strongly about it. Oh wait they can't.
Game devs are like an entire Overton window to the left of gamers, and ex-industry devs who go into indie dev talk about their time in the industry like it was mandatory military service or a prison sentence.
Not surprised tbh. Most corporate office jobs are soul destroying but with game development you have the additional joy of dealing with gamers.
They have tried that before. It was terrible and had AI generated CSAM in it.
Edit: Changed the link to a youtube video since the article I originally linked was paywalled even with archive.is.
Yeah it's objectively good gamers can't actually make anything.
