Part 7/9:
A recurring theme in the discourse is the open disdain shown by some game developers and journalists toward their audience—Gamers. Tweets and statements reveal a dismissive attitude, dismissing gamers as irrelevant or unwelcome, claiming that current games are "not made for" their supposed core audience.
