shareholders dont want art. shareholders want assured profits.
and as a result of this, you have FIFA XVIIICMCMIII, World of Warcraft - Lich King's Eight Borne Son Awakens Again Part II, Soap operas and sitcoms copied one after another with same and similar jokes, same kind of movies repeating each other, or the SAME movie repeating itself with sequels with little difference, and so on.
because, shareholders dont want companies to take risks. its mass manufacturing.
umm yea and the majority of those kinds of games don't sell. what sells is whether or not it is fun. and none of your criticism is going to change any of that.
there are plenty of games that are about art. sorry to break it to you not everything is black and white like you claim it is. there is only 1 black and 1 white. while there are over 256 shades of grey. i play video games cause it's fun, not because it makes me more violent.
u have a very rigid way of learning with light, and i wonder if we are touching on some past karmic issue with you.
world of warcraft is fun because the gameplay is fun. blizzard spends a lot of time and years into pushing the art, and the game play. you can look at plenty of other mass market games that are simply just for the sake of killing and they don't sell very well.. u know why because they are boring.
YOU CAN'T judge a gamer, when u aren't even a gamer yourself. It's like judging a sub set of people for what they enjoy. It's ridiculous! Do you support free will or not?
Cause it sounds to me like you are going up against free will.

Okami - an example of art in games.
Though I think you'd find some way to criticize this too. lol
