    I mean, in fairness, this is a reviewer. I think the obsession with everything being different than it used to be is mostly a consumer, marketing and reviewer thing. Designers certainly have a role to play in the problem too, though.

      Nah, we designers only do stuff that help boost sales. If people want changes, we will do them, even if the make not much sense because they’ll sell more stuff. Kind of sad but this is it.

        designers arent paid for their ideas theyre paid to design what the (sometimes idiots) want you to make. clients always right (unless theyre really wrong) n all that

      designers design based on the context and if the reviewers and people create a context of X style then the designer is going to use X style. blame the designer if you want but throw out everything a designer was required for, too. aka every single thing in your eyeline. its was all designed by a designer.

      “but i made this object” congrats ur a designer.
