Creativity paralyzed by criticism

The critical attitude of the players towards the medium is the main problem with the video games, an obstacle to the creativity of the developers are forced to travel more and more roads already mapped out in the past. This was the view expressed by Josh Olin, community manager for Treyarch, during an interview with NowGamer.

"As a community manager live daily reality of social media and I think the culture of the game is going in a negative direction while social media and technology continue to evolve," says Olin. "A growing number of players seems to have lost sight of the essence of industry." "As part of the entertainment medium they are more creative in circulation.

Too many developers looking to innovate are demolished by the criticism that often end in themselves. The only goal that is achieved with this approach is the paralysis of creativity, an ending that no rational player would like to believe. " Recently, the developer of Call of Duty: Black Ops has been inundated with criticism for the problems that plague the multiplayer versions of the PC and PlayStation 3 shooter.
