Similar target audiences right? I’m ok with this, I’m glad that kids have games to look forward to like when I was young. Just because ST isn’t for me doesn’t mean I can’t be happy for the people who will be happy with this.

This video from tale foundry touches on this.

Let kids be kids, and enjoy their lore like we did when we were young. It's just getting wierd because people can cash in on it easily.

Yep, I remember the old South Park episode about "Internet Dollars" something like 15 years old, and suddenly, people are figuring out how to do just that.
