The thing is that you see the positive side of it, and I see the negative side of it.
I don't think any of us are necessarily right or wrong - we're just different.
As long as I don't believe that the business angle of approach to game design is the best one, I will speak against it when I see it happening to the detriment of the game experience.
Does this mean it would be better business to care about game design before revenue? Of course not.
The thing is, I don't give a shit about business. That doesn't make me blind to how things work, and I'm 100% fully aware that I can't change anything - so maybe you could argue it's wasted energy.
But I believe in my position, so I will keep it.
This Christian notion of enduring what I can't change is not for me. I know one thing, though, and that is that nothing is ever going to change if we all simply endure. Whether I make a difference or not, isn't really a concern I'm going to bother with.
