About this Quote
This quote by Gordon Smith reflects the altering nature of the game of football. In his day, gamers were anticipated to put in a lot of hard work and effort in order to succeed. This was seen as an essential part of the game and was anticipated of all gamers. Nevertheless, in today's video game, the focus has actually shifted far from hard work and more towards technical capability and tactical awareness. This has led to a different design of play, with gamers relying more on their natural talent and less on their effort. This has altered the video game considerably, and it is clear that Gordon Smith is not a fan of this shift. He thinks that the game has actually lost something while doing so, which the players of his day worked harder than those of today.
