And then there's just the tendency to hop on trends which also just really grinds my gears. Every franchise suddenly felt the need to have a battle royale mode in their games once Fortnite and PUBG took off, even if it was at the expense of other shit that made their games what they were (no story in BO4).
I couldn't agree more with this. How many different battle royale games do we need? The part that bothers me the most about this particular trend is that the originals always get left behind. Maybe I'm mistaken, but the origin of those types of games in particular stems from DayZ. After DayZ there was an even bigger zombie craze, which created popularity for H1Z1, and it was them (I think) who made the choice to create the battle royale mode. Then we saw PUBG and all the other clones. Does anyone pay attention to DayZ or H1Z1 anymore? Nope. Those games have been left behind and I think the experience playing the newer games isn't as good.
