Yesterday, Brütal Legend and Psychonauts creator Tim Schafer told us not to worry our pretty little heads about game sales. Today, he clarifies:

…And that’s why, unless it’s your money on the line, game sales don’t need to keep you up at night. The market and game executives do not dictate what games get made—They just dictate what gets made easily. They affect what can be made without a fight. As long as there are creative people out there willing to fight for ideas they care about, then there is nothing that the market or anyone else can do to stop them.
Truth. Though, if people didn’t worry about game software sales numbers, whatever would people argue about? Probably the gameplay!
