I wouldnt want to pay for a musician I dont listen to.

I disagree, and here is why.

The difference is between entertainment value and artistic value. There are a lot of art (music, film, writing, games, etc) that I think are important to exist for the betterment of humanity, but are too emotionally heavy to enjoy recreationally, or too niche for most people to engage with it; and yet, I believe are important that they exist. I want to support quality art that falls into those categories, even if I never consume them, because if I don't, then one day when someone does come up with an idea that would be relevant to my niche, they are less likely to make it.

I don't want a game's ability to maximize engagement to be what determines how valuable it is, which is equivalent to saying, I don't want the games I put my money toward to only be the games that I engage with. If you agree with the first half, then you must agree with the second half.
