Most “normal” gamers dont care about the same things gamers that are more invested in the hobby do. I.e by and large, the “average” gamer isn’t voting with their wallets against the enshittening of the industry.

That’s what I feel, there are so many consumers now that products that aren’t good or exploit their users can still have a healthy market.

TLDW: 8 minutes of vacuous navel-gazing which could have been distilled to the following 4 sentences:

But who involves themselves that much with games? Critics, journalists and enthusiasts. But what percentage of the whole do these people make? If you’re watching this video right now I imagine you’d be considered an outlying statistic a few steps away from the average demographic the industry continues to target.

The funny part is people who will blindly watch any random word vomit on YouTube are who some of these trash games are targeting.
