Maybe you shouldn't be such a cunt.

It's kind of hard to grow a dick on the fly.

Maybe you should take the business classes in school, then you would understand the relationship between quality and sold products.

There is a relationship between quality and sales, and this relationship is drowned out in a dozen of other factors such as marketing, distribution, and consumer awarness. But thats all besides the point, I'm not some investor looking for a sound place to put my money, I'm a gamer who plays and has opinions about games and the companies that make games. Sometimes I'll state those opinions in an online forum. If Bioware stops making SP PC RPGs, the fact they are making money with dumbed down console titles with l33t graphics won't be any condolence. And I don't seem stretching the boundaries anywhere with Dragon Age, so might as well complain about the setting. One more thing, you said quality reflected sales, not setting. The two are pretty much mutually exclusive measurements.

Yes
Generic high fantasy is incredibly crap and incredibly overused and its boring and no fun. I could give a shit if some fantasy game sold a million copies or not, it's still a piece of shit setting. Theres no way to make a good one, just varying degrees of bad.

Not trying something because it isnt something that has sold alot is pretty lame. Hurrah for comfort zones, turning everything to be the same thing.

Do you like things that sell alot or something? Like 'wow, this game sold millions, I love it!'
