Great analysis of how business strangles art. This mentality is why "pirate movies are dead" was the thought for years, and it was assumed Pirates of the Caribbean would fail (now a 4.5B franchise) And as @betterthemask points out, this applies to the game industry 100% https://t.co/Ex49dOq6IT

        @DevSpacePrez Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn is a perfect example of a studio taking a massive risk (literally the company) and it paying off. You have to be willing to gamble to make something great.
