Now, on the one hand, people like me feel that Casual Gaming concepts are being applied to 'good old games' to the detrement of all. Other people however enjoy the ease of access, the quick rewards and the less addictive nature of games designed to take far less of our time.
My question to you is this:
Do you want gaming to become more 'casual', or not?
As for me; I don't feel elitist or indignant when it comes to this - I just kinda wish Age of Empires III had upheld the historical values of the series instead of trying to inject adventure and fantasy into proceedings.
I just want Casual Gaming to stop messing around with my favourite series. It can do what it wants with new titles.
