This is going to seem odd because a lot of people are surface level into it but if you actually get into it you’ll see it’s very difficult and most people will tell you that you’re wrong. This hobby is game design. It’s incredibly hard but everyone thinks they are a master at it. The moment you start building something you see that all of your designs are very basic.
Ooh that reminds me of the fantasy heart breaker phenomenon. It’s where like someone who has only ever played DND (and probably just one edition of it) sets out to make their own RPG. They’re full of passion and energy!
And the game turns out like shit because all they knew was DND. Like if someone who had only ever watched the Lord of the rings movies went to make their own film, and it has horses no matter the genre because don’t films always have horses?
