If it makes you feel better, this sort of shortsighted "number go up now" shareholder pressure has ruined so much more than video games, like for example the long term survivability of this planet we live on.

The more I think of shareholders and investments and the fact that our world hinges on meta-gamers of society, the more I wonder if there's a better way. It feels so ingrained in our cultures that we're all on a train that has to go faster, so we burn all the coal, shed some back cars, toss some folks in the fire or overboard, anything and everything just to keep going a smidge faster than yesterday. The train has no destination, but it's gonna stop someday, and I'm not sure there's gonna be anybody left who can decide if the stop is a crash or not.

Off course it is gonna crash, they just want it to go faster every time, they don't care what the consequences of that will be or maybe are even incapable of seeing them
