stupid game developers

[FordFreak]

Just had to get this out of my system. Why the hell do all of them do this. Why on newer games does it always ask if you want to quit when you click quit? I feel like killing the person who thought of that. If I didn't want to quit the game would I click quit? HELL NO. It ticks me off to the point of wanting to kill them when I get that stupid question. DIE DIE DIE.

Because some people accidently click on quit.

I dunno... maybe you'd accidentally click it?

But actually, I agree with you. Games (and apps) should only prompt you before quitting if you're gonna lose something because you haven't saved it.

I cannot count the number of times that I have accidently quit out of a game..

Because someone can accidently hit a KB shortcut... that way you can get out of it before you mess up your game.

Because it's good design.

Exactly.
Remember that designers always have to keep in mind the lowest common denominator in regards to system specs AND user intelligence.
Not everyone has the best system or the sharpest brain.
