Well, just anecdotal evidence. I would surmise we are the more sophisticated gamers. Would you agree, there are less sophisticated gamers compared to "normal" gamers? Walk into a game store. The average person there, is the average buyer.

How many times do you hear normal, casual gamer people ask...

"can I play it online?'
"does it have good graphics?"
"oooh I love trophies!"

I don't know about you. When I tote the powerful game play of some older games, people just go "ugh the graphics look so bad", I don't want to play it. Or, it is too hard to learn!

Instant turn off for them.

Or, if you got a game with bad graphics, but it is highly addictive, it tends to be only online.

Like that maplesyrup online game or whatever.

Most successful games so far? 3d shooters. Call of Duty, yeah? It can be played ONLINE and it has GOOD graphics, and it probably has some form of trophy system.

By the way, I never played Call of Duty or the sequel or whatever. Halo, etc. I won't deny that there is money for the developer there though.

I'm clearly the minority demographic here.

I think this game is pretty easy to learn, but in hindsight, trying to explain it to my brother... I can see it has a fairly high learning curve.

People don't usually love that.

I'm not saying we don't exist as a somewhat sizable force. But for economical reasons, we are a relatively horrible return on investment for software developers.

Sure you will run into a handful of people who long for the older games and such, but if we were all peasants fighting 1v1 in the KB arena, we'd lose horribly even with buffs.

Unfortunately, I think we are at the end of the turn based strategy revival already.
