   For $1,000,000 you could hire 10 good programmers for a year.
   
   How the fuck does Sony spend $400 million over 8 years and end up with a game that's dead in 2 weeks lol

     > Arcades were for normies
     
     Someone never actually spent time at an arcade, but has an opinion about it none the less.

     @Escoffier Video arcades were for normies and evolved out of pinball arcades, also a normie venue as The Who told you.

     @thefinn Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari, agrees with you. He thinks game mechanics are the problem.
     
     He likes to remind industry people that games have never regained the mass audience they enjoyed in 1981.

     @thefinn Most of the work is done by artists who are paid far less than programmers.
     
     As I've mentioned before for that money they could have hired some of the same artists who designed the Cantina aliens for Star Wars. Phil Tippett and Rick Baker are still alive.
     
     Not to mention Joe Johnston, designer of Boba Fett.

     @judgedread I fucking loathe the art and all that shit.
     
     I want to see good gameplay, engine and AI. Look at dwarf fortress or rimworld - there's probably a hundred other examples. Little to no graphical content, completely replayable, huge following....
     
     It's literally driving me up the wall watching this level of stupid go on.

     I think this is the first time I've ever replied to you. What are you being gay? I don't even know who the fuck you are.
