Bro, no-one's clicking a link with "spyware" in the URL.

Now this is getting good. I'll just take out my popcorn I brought from home.

Interesting, you sound like a 12 year old on Fortnite.

I think generally the majority of developers do think like this. They're normally the ones passionate about good games and see fads and trends for what they are. Unfortunately it is not usually these developers in control of major decisions or greenlighting projects at [large] games studios. Even less so at publishers.

Just need to make coffee at home and stop eating avocados. You'll be a billionaire in no time!

He's an American CEO vacationing on a different continent, how much more regular do you want it?

Someone's got to crunch those numbers.

I wouldn't say Metroid and Castlevania merging into the name of a new genre label is quite the same as expecting every game with the word "Soul" in the title to be a souls-like.

Rogue has a similar problem sure, but I don't think it's at the point of expecting every game using the word to be a Rogue-like. Recent example 40k: Rogue Trader.

Its a bit odd if a genre can have a monopoly on a word which has been used throughout games involving any magic or mysticism since the 80's

Right, thanks for that, it's quite unclear to me from their comment, even if I re-read it now. I thought it was a weird spelling we use or something.

In the UK, "telegraph pole" can refer to any overhead wire carrying pole like this (usually the wooden ones), which can be carrying electric or telephone connections. They still do to in a lot of rural areas.
