I mean, for one, that’s the only metric you chose to measure games by, so I’m not sure what else you would expect. Should we reply as if you used an entirely unmentioned metric?

Second, I specifically mentioned “many”, not you in particular. That’s not strawmaning, that’s talking about a general trend.

Just because I mentioned that metric doesn't mean that's the only thing I care about when choosing what games I want to buy/play. Some people chose to interpret my comment in the most uncharitable way.
