I disagree with that, but it's just my opinion. I think artists must move beyond their own taste. A sushi chef doesn't really have to like squid.

I think using your own taste is a crutch. If you get good at it, you should be able to know it's good regardless of your own feelings.

We see this when game developers are shuffled around and work on ones that are completely different from their passion projects. The good ones still excell.

Even if one is good enough to recognise a good game regardless of one's feelings, I'd say it would be harder to work on a game type that doesn't appeal the artist. I hope that even if a sushi chef doesn't like squid, he like some of the sushi he'll be making.

Let's agree to disagree then.
