  As a game developer who learned things the hard way I'm happy there are so many great tools now which let people express themselves and share in the joy of making your own digital experiences. The lower the barrier of entry, the more people have the opportunity to try their hand at game development. That means more developers providing more exciting ideas! It might mean there's more low-effort stuff out there, but there's always been tons of low-effort stuff out there, anyway. People are often complaining about a lot of poor quality stuff on the market. I don't actively seek it out and I rarely come across it. So, why would it bother me?
