Mindset. In a way the defeatism is what allows it to happen as everybody else begins to feel the same way.
In other words, stay optimistic and speak positively towards your hopes. It's true that the sad reality is that many people don't care, but as long as we continue to let corps get away with it and not speak out about our passion for this then the chances of it actually happening dwindle more and more.
Warframe is popular as hell. It seems likely a game like that will continue. Planetside 2 as well.
A game like nexons Ghost in the Shell hero shooter, by the book but fun as hell, that game seems like it would be truly gone forever sadly. Except even the likes of Nexon's rehashing of games gets private server emulation treatments!
The thing about our work is that we are quite literally going against the massive corporations so a lot of these projects either stay low key or risk getting shut down.
So yeah, it's true that not everyone feels how we do. That doesn't change the fact that if we stop talking about it and doing what we can the corps get exactly what they want and the efforts fade away forever. I think another good example is the ElDewrito Halo 3 rewrite which was effectively Halo PC until MCC finally released. The likelihood of MCC coming to PC was really high already but with all the reception it got over the years I really feel like ElDewrito pushed MCC to fruition sooner
