    I must be the other half that doesn’t do any of that. Give me a strong vision and great execution of said vision and I’m almost always content, unless it’s just one of those games I can’t get into for whatever reason.

      What “creation and self expression” means to corporations is micro transactions in the form of skins, textures, and single bits of paid content. Like buying a horse, then having to pay for the farming bundle.
