“You don’t know what you want”, the creator of this cult video game license attacks players

“Do the developers know what the players want? No, we have no idea what you want, seriously. […] And to make a long story short, you don’t know either. But you have to remember that I’m using a collective “you” here. First of all, most of you only tell developers what you hate. Great, you’ve explained what you don’t want, but what do you want then? […]

You keep saying you don’t like this game, this feature, this type of character… Great. What type of character you want. If you don’t like sarcastic characters, then what do you want in characters? Funny ones? Serious ones? […] That’s why you need to tell us what you want, not what you don’t want. […] You need to explain what the sticking point is in a system that you consider bad.
[…]
I understand that you, as individuals, want specific things. But you also need to understand that you, as individuals, are not very good at giving good feedback to developers, and also that you do not represent the sum of the people for whom the game was made. […] The lack of consensus among players makes game development very difficult.”
