I live, breathe, and sleep video games but this is a problem we made for ourselves. You don't have to buy the latest and greatest games from million dollar companies. Heck, you don't have to buy any games at all. Stop buying crap and they'll stop making as much of it. Go play something else or, and I say this as someone who's currently designing homebrew for a TTRPG in another tab, go touch some grass.
Damn straight, the amount of times I've heard "It's probably gonna be shit, oh well. Still gonna pre order cause of this [dogshit] skin for the gun that won't be meta for longer than a week cause it's so busted."
I saw this coming back in 2013 and have been trying to convince people that it's going to be a problem and get worse as time goes on.
Well LOOK AT ME NOW, WENDELL!!!!
Like, the enshittification of IT is basically over-engineering imo.
