Be it mobile, be it classical AAA titles for retail, be it games that you can download. This is something you've got to find across genres and across platforms. "Because it is dedicated to this audience, dedicated to this platform, dedicated to player habits. Sacred 3, he says, is an idea that users will "buy into."
