Why are fan games so overwritten in general?

Now explain what "overwritten" means without using any buzzwords or meme words

>>718923392 (OP)
Same reason fanfics and webnovels are hundreds of chapters long.

Paragraphs of text to say the same thing a few sentences could.

>>718923392 (OP)
because fans are lore otakus and not writers. left to their own devices they'll write a wiki on the mechanics of the universe and a 10,000 word biopic on some obscure background character, not a two minute scene with an effective dramatic arc

Are they?
Anyway, text is the cheapest "content" to produce.
