Assholes like this have zero, ZERO, concept of why creative work is popular. Even "corporate created" work. On an extreme end, as far as they are concerned they could turn The SIMS into "Saudi Life Simulator" and people will still buy it because "Its The SIMS."

They don't see the creativity or the why, they just see "popular brand".

There are plenty of other examples of this out there.
