>>38159137>>38159165The "making games is hard" isn't a misquote but it's taken out of context and twisted in a negative way. They say multiple times in that interview that they're going to try their best to meet expectations, they said the other part while laughing as a joke, because they know there are some fans of any game or series that have wild expectations that are hard to meet.
The LGPE graphics quote mentioned art style, not graphics, so that is twisting words.
