{{quote|''"You know how in ''[[The Sims]]'' you could get a job as a mailroom clerk? You remember how you had to go into the office, every single in-game day, and play a little minigame where you fling envelopes into pidgeonholes? Of course not! Because it would have been '''really fucking boring!''' Yes, alright Peter, it's more realistic than [[Money Spider|dead monsters dropping pocket change]], but you know what else is realistic? Working a desk job for fifty years in a cloying mire of tedium and self-hatred before dying of a disfiguring facial cancer, alone and unloved, forgotten within a decade, but you won't see many games about that, at least not until I finish the design document."''|Ben ''[[Zero Punctuation|'Yahtzee']]'' Croshaw, on the design choices in ''[[Fable]]''.}}

{{quote|''"Of course it's not realistic...who cares, you know? That's the thing that I think a whole lot of people are missing right now in the driving game environment...they're trying to go for reality. Well, I drive enough. Thank you, but no thank you. I don't want reality. I want fun." ''|Xion Cooper, artist for ''Cruis'n World''.}}

{{quote|''"Name one game that would still be fun if it was realistic"''|[[Smosh|Anthony Padilla]] - "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bKoahtmcHY If Video Games Were Real]"}}

{{quote|''"The ultra-realistic games of recent years have been one long, gritty, [[Darkness Induced Audience Apathy|depressing]] [[Real Is Brown|grey-a-thon]] [[Follow the Leader|after another]], and it’s up to games like ''[[Saints Row 2]]'' to remind us that [[Acceptable Breaks From Reality|realism is an acceptable sacrifice]] if it means [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|I get to throw old ladies into jet turbines.]]"''|Ben ''[[Zero Punctuation|'Yahtzee']]'' Croshaw}}
