Gamers Are WRONG?!

I think it's less Gamers are Wrong and more Gamers never agree with each other and pleasing all of them is impossible.  

If the dev is saying the customer is wrong then the dev is an idiot... these devs are running a business... if they aren't in it to make money then what's the point of being a business? (There are plenty better setups to create things for love rather than money.) If they are in it for the money then the customer is right - especially when they are wrong and you can either lie and cheat like EA and then get it in the neck when you get caught or you can teach your customer how things work better your way slowly and carefully and over a very long period of time (many games) or you can just give them what they want... anything else is bad business and devs have no business being in business.

I put my touch down and now my house is on fire.

this made me think of the simpsons ep, 'grift of the magi' where the school was bought by a toy corp, and crowd sourced a new hit toy, and in listening to the collective, with those unique requests they got.. Funzo.. 

bethesda's issue is they've made 5+ elder scrolls games so they've kind of put themselves in that situation it would be like if nintendo just stopped making zelda, mario, or another other of the franchises they are known for they have sort of programmed us to expect those games from them

The background music made me think the telephone in the room over was ringing - for the entire length of the video. please go back to not using music. thank you.

they'll say that then turn around and blame consumers when the game fails
