As long as I create freely whatever I want, I honestly wouldn't care.
However, I will say that I rather be making things that I want to be happy with, ergo the former situation will probably cause me torment in that regard.
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.
I don't care about fame. I don't even care about players. The reason I make games is because games are worth making. They have an inherent value, like honesty or freedom or buffalo sauce, that's worth fighting for even if people hate you for it.
I would gladly go to war to protect game development!
