Writing code is not the hard part if you're a developer.
Otherwise it's an insurmountable barrier.
I think it's a bit like writing a novel.
Everyone's got a novel in them, but you absolutely need to know how to write to get it out. Unless you can dictate it but then... you could also hire a developer.
Those without the resources to hire a developer, without the years of education and practise to code at any level of proficiency, can now realize some form of their ideas.
I just logically can't see how the increased accessibility and output won't increase the amount of interesting games, even if 99% are slop (so is fan fiction, let them enjoy it).
