Fortnite and Gen z have ruined gaming.

[hypehype]

All these grindy battle pass with half the stuff being junk.

crystals, coins, tickets, stars, black pearls, this, that. More currency than the EU combined. Admit it, it took you a while to work out how to actually unlock/buy a character, and you probably still don't know what to do with the other stuff.

Lazy creativity, just turn every game into a battle royal, don't need to make an in depth game as this generation has a short attention span (tiktok, YouTube shorts)

Gamble gamble gamble.

That's what gaming in 2023 is about, silly gen z kids gambling all their parent's money on fortnite skins. Now every developers wants to incorporate gambling elements.

Everything but the cash shop is buggy, they can never make the game run properly but they can always make the cash shop take your money.

Ah yes. Gen Z clearly developed these games.

[Hirose]

the gen z in question are the men born in the 1970s controlling the companies bad practices

But who made the game into a billion $ success?

srry bud, the gen z callout was unwarranted, all gamers who play newer games arent gen z, keep that in mind

[[unassigned]]

Gen Z are notorious for buying out developers and coaxing shareholders into demanding shady monetisation models

That's most likely for F2P games that suck, the most B2P games are still free of charge (most of the time at least)

" Diablo 4 , Call of Duty any of em , Dead by Daylight , Black Desert and more "
all of em are "Buy" with either micro/macrotransactions as well as battle passes and so on .

Well Blizzard is dead more or less, BDO is not for everyone.
But well look at Elden ring, lies of p, grim dawn, baldurs gate, and well even many anime themed games including many indie new comers.

Of course games run in a wrong direction but B2P is still somewhat safe, the most wait for some streams to make sure it doesn't involve any scam before they buy them

Agreed

[TMX]

this debate is stupid because the developers of these games have put hours of work into the game and they dont deserve this

I mean, look. Battle Royale, Free to Play, Battle Pass, etc. That has ruined gaming.

[Danテディ]

F2P games shouldn't exist.
It worked all the time without it.

+ Don't tell me the big companies work a lot and put efforts into their work, that's definitely a lie.

Why not? They are 18 years old by now. But really the OP means the game is made for BR imbeciles, and who plays stupid BR other than Gen Z kids?
