Are they works of staggering complexity, pushing the limits of what hardware can do, and one of the few examples of software people will actually pay for?

Or are they gigantic mountains of poorly tested hacks, laden with bugs at release, developed under abusive conditions and riddled with DRM, microtransactions and gambling mechanics?
