I do not agree with your unsupported claim. For example, I would bet no good games have been programmed in Haskell. As far as I am aware, no great games have been made with the Uni…

I am not convinced that that matters. Great games have been made with Godot (Cruelty Squad) and GameMaker (Sexy Hiking), or with no engine at all (Minecraft, Cave Story).

The Economist only wants what's best for China. (As the article is paywalled, do they discuss the positive externalities of this glut or only the difficult labour market?)
