Substitute any field for game development.

Here's my translation:
"We expect researchers to do high-risk development with very  
practical and applied results. We expect them to produce magic  
bullets. We aren't willing to support their work in any way, with  
information, access, money, etc. We will look at anyone trying to  
succeed as an academic with disdain. We won't offer any reward to  
anyone achieving what we want, not even acknowledgment. We don't get  
why researchers aren't producing what we want."
