One of the things that took me quite a while to grasp once I got my job in the game industry, is that in general, game developers make games geared towards the mass market...NOT to core gamers. Sure, there are the occasional games geared towards core gamers (off the top of my head I'm thinking Ninja Gaiden and a lot of the older 'impossible' games) but those 'usually' don't sell nearly as well as when they do cater to the mass market.

Developers are typically gamers themselves. The people that manage them from way above (i.e. the 'suits') may or may not have been gamers themselves; but either way, all they care about is the $. And the way to get the $ is to cater more to the mass market.

Sucks, but that's the way it is.
