TLDW: 8 minutes of vacuous navel-gazing which could have been distilled to the following 4 sentences:

But who involves themselves that much with games? Critics, journalists and enthusiasts. But what percentage of the whole do these people make? If you're watching this video right now I imagine you'd be considered an outlying statistic a few steps away from the average demographic the industry continues to target.

The funny part is people who will blindly watch any random word vomit on YouTube are who some of these trash games are targeting.
