Sounds like he is talking about the most popular game right now and how RPG elements are really entering just about all games, giving them a good complexity, even if the hardcore gamers that play even realize it. So many gamers seem to be looking for anything that will make them worry and complain about how one of their favorite games could-possibly-from-what-it-sounds-like-even-though-its-almost-entirely-hearsay become DUMBED DOWN. Sounds like some anxiety problems.
