Counter to Elitism

[Reynhart]

I'm not one of "those people", so I can freely express my opinion against that mentality.
Since you call them "those people" too, I assume you're not part of that group.

So, what is the best from your point of view ? If we reject some ideas because "other people might get upset", we can miss some good ones.

It's more that, if they don't cater to those people to some degree, they won't play. And those are the types they're trying to attract. So ideas and such are fine, but if it pushes the target customer base away it likely won't happen.

And that's really the thing, you can't just show up with your point of view alone. I've learned long ago that my PoV means nothing if the game isn't catered towards what I like, and that unless people just all of a sudden change to be similar, to just avoid games that don't fit me. If I like more of the game than I dislike, I play, otherwise not. Until money isn't the driving force behind making the game, they'll likely cater to the largest amount they can. In this day and age I unfortunately do not fit into that group. And there's very few developers that make games that I do like.
