I dunno where this thing came from. I'm pretty big on Sony and following their releases and I only found out about it from the launch trailer two months ago. By all accounts it wasn't a bad game just uninspired and even from those launch trailers I knew it'd never survive. I don't think anyone expected a two week release window though.
I know I've said this before -- I absolutely do have the time (and desire!) to play multiple games BUT not when each and every one of them has felt the need to add in some kind of "Our game requires that you daily perform some kind of bullshit task that takes an hour or two and therefore completely coincidentally prevents you from playing any other game(s)." Because make no mistake, that is exactly what they are doing--attempting to monopolize my play time and/or spending to the point where the other games I no longer play will shrivel and die due to lack of support as surely as if they were all trees trying to spread their leaves wide/fast enough to choke off the sunlight to the plants smaller than them.The population of people who play games just don't have enough time to commit to more than 1 such game, the ones already playing those games have already decided which one they want to play (it's either Fortnite, Overwatch, Warframe, League of Legends, or an MMO), and all of those investments were wasted.
20 years ago, when I was in my 20's, I had time to spend hours playing games daily, even when working - all I had to do was cook dinner, eat, and then go to bed and be okay with less sleep.As I've grown older, my interest in online games has shrunk, and my interest in single-player games I can play in my own time and at my own pace has only grown.
You don't often see that kind of dimorphism in birds.
