That’s like saying you want a movie to be 4 hours so it’s a better value. Games are art and thus shouldn’t be confined to thinking like this imo. Also, quality > quantity
It feels less like burnout from being empathetic and more burnout from seeing how many people, especially those in power, have absolutely none of it and will gladly fuck over others for their own gain
