Read this as condescendingly as possible.
"akshyully I've been well aware of why casual content appeals to the casual audience. I'm a GAMER."
But seriously, yeah. Generic plots appeal to the most people because they're easy to follow. I've met a lot of people who hated "The Prestige" because "it was confusing as fuck" and "didn't make sense". I admit, I ve seen it four times now and I still caught something new on my last watch. But still. It's not exactly rocket surgery.
But I really did pull most of that campaign straight from a movieand they ate it up, talked about it like it was an 11 course meal. Instead of a truck stop hotdog with slightly too-green mustard.
