Right off the bat, I want to say: that’s very well put, I completely agree on every point, and thank you for putting this out there. 🤘🏼
There is a minor apples v. oranges hiccup in that comparison, considering one was designed to be consumed by a passive audience of one, and the other to be built upon/into/from by a group actively collaborating to that end.
What you said is completely valid, but the implication of parallel seems to ignore a fundamental difference in each original’s medium.
Counter-point: it’s my impression that ol’ Andrzej soured the milk with his very public dismissal of the games (much less video gaming in general), and hasn’t exactly reversed his position to anywhere even a close to a middle. YTF would CDPR have any interest in deferring to his myopic stance and knowingly risk tainting the end product?
