He wants to be seen as casual. not only that but just because he is a video game developer, that does not make him an expert. you are the one conferring that particular "acreditation" on him, no recognized independent body has done that.

    but at this point it's 5 am where I'm at and talking to you is like talking to a brick wall. I can do keep doing it, but eventually I'm just going to start looking crazy.
    lol goodbye, sleep tight, and good luck next time, id prefer if you brought scholarly journals backing your claims next time.

    Sony is a pretty prominent 3rd party origination backing Yoshi, and id say they accredited him and let us not forget the rigorous schooling he undertook along with degrees and past experience in the game industry... or does the accreditation need to come from god himself for you? o that's right you said recognized.

    And let us not forget that Yoshi didn't just spout Casual as a buzz word he quantified it with not only an explanation but examples of mechanics that catered to casual play:

    -Easier leveling
    -leves
    -Anima

    again these are just some of what he stated catered to casual play.

    Is Pandastirfry the new accredited grand master of game development?!?!? who states that actual developers are not developers!?!?
