I Want Shorter Games

I WANT SHORTER GAMES WITH WORSE GRAPHICS MADE BY PEOPLE WHO ARE PAID MORE TO WORK LESS AND I'M NOT KIDDING The curious desire for ever-abundant garage indies requires infrastructure that is currently incapacitated. Independent curation & journalism designed to bring your awareness to titles meeting both your established & unestablished tastes born from curiosity or experience is at a standstill. Shorter games made by people who are paid more requires better journalism that is also paid more to exist in niche spaces of great benefit to audiences, academics & archivists alike. We must destroy ads & marketing

Sonic reclines casually while declaring that he wants shorter games with worse graphics made by better-paid developers who work less. The lower text humorously expands this into an overly serious manifesto about indie-game journalism, curation, niche audiences, and destroying advertising, parodying the contradictions and jargon of games criticism. It is used as a reaction to discussions about bloated modern games, labor conditions, indie games, and anti-marketing sentiment.
