Looks like someone saw the original and didn't know what it meant

    The same general idea, with better wording. Not really sure what OP was trying to add. In my experience critics aren't demanding hyperrealism, and are the first to praise unique art styles.

    The original phrasing is " I want shorter games with worse graphics, made by people paid more to work less and I'm not kidding".

    The point is to highlight the abuses of the games industry, while advocating for better treatment of devs. This edit adds literally nothing to the conversation

    I read this meme as making fun of those people. Some people on Twitter have pointed to the recent King Kong game as an example of the original meme being bad. "See what happens when you pay workers more to make a game with worse graphics? You get this." Those people didn't understand the original meme. I see this post as an edited version to exasperatedly respond to those people with.
