Sorry, and this is not correct Tris.
Ignore that this is games for a second. It's product. And I think the rules are pretty much the same for selling any product:
It has to be good.
It has to be well marketed.
it helps, but it isn't a cosmic truth.
Many good products don't sell.
Many bad products sell.
You have to make a game that people want to play. A product that your customers want.
You can make "The great American game," but you'd be hard pressed to sell it to a buch of World of Warcraft players unless you had HP and DPS in it.
