This really does not sound healthy. The game is released, for a certain amount of money. If people don’t like what they get for their money, they simply should not buy it.

But by now gamers have been so trained to expect to endless content treadmills and all their ilk like mtx and battle passes that publishers/developers get egged on if they don’t work on their game 24/7 and forever.

      and they get offended if you tell them to go play a different game, then.

      Cause some of these idiots out there, I swear to god, act like the game they are currently playing is the only game in the world, until the next new hotness that catches their attention comes out, then that will be the only game in the world.

      No wonder this shit isn’t sustainable. I play standalone indie boomer shooters and 100 hours would mean high praise from me.

            Vegas is still a fantastic game 14 years later. Not many games have that kind of holding power.

            I hope you have a fantastic journey through it :D wish I could play it for the first time again.
