the harsh truth for a lot of obsessives on the internet in general is that in making literally ANYTHING, not just videogames, "good enough" is the target. The process is entirely irrelevant.
>but you should use normalmaps!
>but you should make sure all your models are properly subdivided!
they don't care. If the game runs at a "playable framerate" (whatever the general public will accept and still buy) it's getting greenlit. Craftsmanship matters to people who pay attention, but 80% of people who buy any product absolutely do not give a shit.
please note that this applies to anything made for the public's consumption like
>movies
>network television
>restaurant chains
>appliances
I'm sorry anons. If you want bespoke artistry, you're looking in the wrong places. At best some weirdo will be crafting something for like 10 years and you might get to enjoy it. Factorio is one example of this and while it sets a noble example, is not going to be the norm.
