Except this hasn’t been taken from them at all. There is no shortage of games that still offer this “experience”. Probably more than ever.

What makes it even sadder is that these idiots are unable to see past the handful of ultra-hyped games currently being pumped by the “AAA” industry. They’re just sheep, going where they’re told, and then bleating because they don’t like the grass in this new paddock.

They think they're the gatekeepers and the tastemakers. They think a multi-billion dollar industry exsts for them and because of them, and they feel that anything that isn't made specifically for them is a direct insult.

They don't care that there's a million games catering to them out there. What matters is that there's one that doesn't.
