In the year 2023, with games loaded with grindy RNG and time gated live service “events” no one should ever use the “hours played per dollar” metric.

Whats that? You want another qUiRkY BR game you say?

The market doesn’t want a “quirky” car

*Narrator voice* It isn't

I mean, I dont see this happening, but also like, holy shit just give some people trains.

I do remember that show finding it stride at a certain point, then WHAM.

Hmm, the Polar Special always sticks out to me.

devs need to learn you can do coop without horrible “drop in drop out” systems. Look at BG3 or DOS2

It feels we are really pushing this game from DOA to DBA.

2023 WRX -> Maybe a new GTI?

Americans live in constant fear of other Americans. Which has created a feedback loop where the goal is to be the most dangerous American (giant vehicle, many guns, ect.)

question from someone who has played the game, but NEVER in like a competitive online capacity:

By letting $15 dollar skins become a thing.

I was more speaking from like.... an investor infrastructure POV. Your whole system relies on that specific game/IP being “popular” (or popular enough to have a player base large enough to profit from). The bulk of the community could move to a new game in a matter of weeks if something deemed “better” comes out.

One aspect of e-sports that is always an issue: If the underlying game/IP goes out of vogue and/or is killed by devs, your entire system crumbles in a (Relative) flash.

I mean, I DO think they would struggle to develop a story that surpasses the fanbases imagination that has run more wild, especially when you may have to make The Bad Guys actually the bad guys.

I mean, in my mind, it is just OW1. By almost every definition, it was a large patch to OW1. You carried over most of your “progress” from OW1. OW2 came into existence the exact time OW1 was poofed out of existence.

TBF it felt like half of that was done by fanfic/shipping community then back-ported as a backstory.

Honestly, I am exhausted with the type/amount of RNG present in any modern loot based game. It’s just too exhausting.

Yeah, but what if we made the only tools for doing said scheduling in some janky external app? How would you feel about that?
