Like blaming someone else for your faults, allowing someone else to think for you is much less painful and more convenient than doing it yourself. It is grossly unfair to lay the blame at the feet of the video game industry. Never lose sight of the fact that this is a business, folks, and to stay in business you have to give the market what it wants. The game industry has never aspired to be a medium of social change this whole business is built on the premise of escapism. We make games because we want players to be excited, to be thrilled, to have fun.
