I seriously find takes like this so bizarre.

Are people just clueless about market trends?

We went from games being primarily marketed to kids in the 80s and most of the 90s. The late 90s and 2000s they started to lean hard into edginess, blood and sex appeal to be more 'mature' which ironically lead to most of these games being the most immature in the long run.

Then games started to follow trends set by prestige television and blockbuster movies and it's been like that ever since.

How do these guys think that things changes because of people whining on Twitter. They're literally following trends like they always did. The success of GTAIV and Last of Us impacted games far more than SJW's ever did.
I thought horse_ebooks would have been a bit more well known but it isn't so my joke fell flat.
