On this and many other forums I see tons of topics saying people that have grand ideas for games. There’s nothing wrong with this, that’s a good thing. But the problem is this: nine times out of ten, the person says “I want to make __ but I need help with graphics, sound, and the engine”. This sounds simple and innocnt until you look at what it really means–they will offer NOTHING to their own project. Even here I’ve seen at least three fangames in which the topic creator admits he has no skill at anything.

If you want to share your ideas, that’s fine, but the current situation is that people are basically asking other people to make games for them. That’s just lazy and screwed up. No one expects you to make a game completely by yourself, but if you don’t even have the skill or dedication to do a thing besides the general planning, you really shouldn’t even consider making a game.

I do not mean this to offend anyone, so I apologize if I have. Thanks for reading this.
