Gamers are the most plowable, defeated, self-loathing market there is.
It is literally the only market in all of media where your fanbase considers someone entitled if they say they didn't like your product.
The idea of someone walking out of a superhero movie and this occuring:
Jane: "So what did you think of it?"
Smith: "Meh, I thought it was pretty crap."
Jane: "Oh you're so entitled!"
Is comical.
Yet the idea of someone saying it for any popular video game is bread and butter.
Content is routinely removed out of games and then readded as "features" to be paid for and games are released intentionally unfinished or with on-disc DLC to penny pinch
And that's before you even touch mobile gaming and micro-transaction probing people's addictions.
It's hard to blame the video game devs, when things like GTA5 make half a billion from online Micro-transactions and all of the top 40 mobile phone games are making billions by being micro-transation filled addictionathons tricking housewives into paying money they're not really thinking about as they spend it.
Meanwhile good games like Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex Mankind Divided massively undersell so the devs can the franchise.
It's up the gamers to change gaming, right now gamers are not only sheep but extremely bizarre cannibal sheep that eat each other when one tries to stop an oncoming wolf.
As amoral as Video Game Devs are, they are only doing the sensible thing. We're the b****es rolling onto our backs and spreading wide for them, then yelling at the peope who don't.
