ironically enough, i played 10 hours of Guild Wars 2 this year and enjoyed it so much
so the elements i’ve grown to dislike aren’t even all that focal in the genre they hail from
I have too many grievances with too many games!! LMAO
The Destinyfication of RPG inventories, the proliferation of pointless checklisting, the exploitation of FOMO are just the tip of the iceberg
You are absolutely correct. While I don't hate every example, it feels so absolutely normalized to borrow time-sink/FOMO elements from MMOs in every genre nowadays.
