As a (light) gamer for two decades who has been reading about the gaming industry for the past few months, I cannot understate how hard it is to create a good game, let alone a great game. So much money was spent/wasted on hopeless endeavors.
These people have no idea what good games mean.

And it's devouring tens of millions. I know what tens of millions can make in the video game industry, it can keep a small team of good devs and designers and artists making something special that's _really_ enjoyed by tens of thousands of people.
We don't want more games, we want more great games. This will never, ever, make great games.

Look on ye mighty, and despair. I really don't care how this sausage was made because the only thing you need to know is that it shouldn't ever have been made.
