Why isn't casual gaming respected?

To be a hipster here... We were all here BEFORE gaming went casual.

I like how you think.

Because "normal" gamers are quite selfish and want this "medium" to be all theirs.

The only real flaw about that is when casuals want every game to suit their needs when they really don't want to get invested in it. They just want to play for shits and giggles and those played before they came along that struggled feel ripped off. Think about an MMO where you needed to put in 50 hours to get that badass epic armor set or weapon from a dangerous raid. Now casuals thought it was too hard and wanted that gear too so now it takes 5 hours to get to the point where that raid is beatable. Is that fair to the players that busted their ass to get that no it isn't. It's turning into a double standard if hardcore gamers ***** its wrong, yet when casuals do it's alright that not cool.

Because casual gamers don't respect games, and whine when things are "too difficult". Stop complaining about difficulty and getting crushed, and I'd be perfectly ok with your lack of gaming enthusiasm.
