Jesus Christ, I can smell your fedora from here.

"consumers are stupid". So I guess you and everyone else is stupid? Calling people who like things you don't like stupid means you have the mind of a toddler and probably act like one.

But you're right. People don't want new things. It's why movies like Oppenheimer bombed and only made almost a billion. It's why "Everything, everywhere all at once" bombed and nobody watched it nor talks about it ever.

People like things that they like. Crazy.

Yeah a lot of people grew up with superheroes, so they watch their favorite franchises. Less so now since we can see some decline with people getting sick of it all.

People like sports, so they buy sports games. EA has a strangle on licensing rights for the players. People want to play as their favorite players. Fucking wild right? If a competitor came in, had the license rights and made a decent game, guess what, people would probably buy it.

I started off in MUDs. When WoW was new, the class synergy and the contexts in which they worked was new, exciting and fun. Yeah people wanted to see that outside of WoW because back then it was new.

You sound like a grognard loser who likes the smell of their own farts and tries to establish their milquetoast opinion as fact

Inb4 "you're a marvel watcher" I don't watch them because I'm not interested in superheros. Inb4 "FIFA slave" nope don't care about sports ball.

Your reply is going to be some nonsense about how you're right because you're just...right! Don't bother, I won't read it.
