too much convenience in other games...

[Prelauncher]

The problem is that it is money that control most games (I am aware of the golden veins in Indie).
Example, EA take a look at what kind of game sells the best at the moment, then they tell a studio to make that kind of game so that it will reach the largest audience. After that the studio makes the game, dumbed down and pointless, because that's what the mainstream wants. EA then markets the game to hell and back so we get all hyped about it and then they release it and we discover that it is just a copy of the last ten games in that genre.
