Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead.
I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

Keep going. Be meaner. Aim whatever lizard-brain impulse you have towards cruelty and violence in this direction.

I've noticed that a lot of art commissioners tend to hesitate when it comes to asking for changes and it makes me sad. If these requests are reasonable I'm always more than happy to do these changes! We artists are not psychics so we don't always get it right immediately and that's ok.
