I watch a lot of game devlogs on YouTube and have yet to see a single game I'd want to play. How come?? Why are they all so terribly unoriginal??Do you have to suck at gamedev to become a YouTube?

There are like 3 big categories of awful:1. Puzzle platformerIdk know who want to play the one milionth platformer with maybe 1 stand out gimmick. Usuay these games are created by beginners, because they are easy to make and it shows. Please stop.2. "I played a game recently and really want to dev my own version"Newsflash: factorio, Super Mario, mirrors edge, city skylines, etc already exist. They where developed by a team of professionals with a budget. Why the fuck would anyone want your 1 man knockoff? Is it fun to you to make a worse version of an existing product?3. OverambitiousThe classic. One man with know clue how much work game dev really is trying to make the next aaa, mmo, or even team developed indie. You won't make your own ori and the blind forest alone. Yanderedev is still paying for his sins of overscoping.
