As Catt always points out, the #1 purpose of a business is to make money. If your focus is on planning for an inevitable backlash regarding your upcoming product, you're doing it wrong.

They do, but as sales of several games have now proven, they don't seek out hate gaming.

I've hate gamed, but it's because the item was already in my library and I didn't know I'd hate it. Plus, I'm mentally ill, also called a completionist. Most people do not keep playing games they don't enjoy. Again, all statistics back that up.

I'd also argue hate watching numbers are low, particularly now with SM. I didn't watch a second of the Acolyte, but did watch several YouTubers recapping episodes.

Sure, but there are some flies that want shit. Someone has to cater to them.

Not at AAA budgets they don't.
