Player expectations Memes

The eternal duality of game development vs gaming in one perfect sketch! Game devs look at other games with jealousy and imposter syndrome ("that guy's game is way better than mine") while comparing their own work to a simple cake. Meanwhile, gamers view the exact same games with extreme binary judgments - either something is absolute garbage or it's the second coming of digital Jesus. The irony? Both are looking at the exact same products but through completely different psychological lenses. This is why game developers need therapy and gamers need... well, also therapy.
