Here is my take on OP. I believe that development being easier so that the every man can do it is a GOOD THING.
Why? It’s allows true visionaries with little skill to achieve their masterpiece. This has happened in film, look at youtube.
Many of the videos are ****, but some are GOLD. I don’t think that would’ve happened if someone decided to make it difficult for people for some reason.
I see plenty of good games and good ideas coming from them. You know what? I’ve haven’t seen too many bad games. Why? Because I don’t look for them. I care about the ones that will become great and it seems that others do to.
Please support efforts for developers to express their ideals and for engine creators to give us the tools to do so.
