I should add, the last two bits I wrote were mainly about game developers.

About regular gamers, I think it should also villainize those who get too "competitive" to the point it takes the imagination out of games. Especially when people become unable to use their favorite characters or combine a team of their favorites and are instead forced to use ones with viable stats or ones that fit together properly in order to stand a chance. And, as an example if someone likes to use a team of 3 pokemon together, due to them being related storywise, like Articuno x Zapdos x Moltres, that should be celebrated instead of scorned and discouraged by competitive play.
