MODERATORS
I fell for stuff like this for a while and now I consequently delete every game that tries to pull this shit with me. And I lost the joy in multiplayer games to be honest. I will never match the dedication of some people. And if this means I have no chance to actually enjoy it, I don't want to bother.
It got to be a really well made game for multiplayer with a good community (and if necessary good moderation) and proper matchmaking to work. There aren't a lot of those out there, especially not major titles. Those either use the for-profit matchmaking algorithm (putting you in games where you specifically encounter players with purchaseable items your ad profile says you may be convinced to buy, even if it's less balanced - Fortnite uses this for example), have absolutely zero working moderation (literally every Counter-Strike) or are completely overrun with bots, cheaters and scammers (e.g. PUBG).
Beyond All Reason comes to mind, that's genuinely a joy playing. Probably due to its FOSS nature and small but fine community. And the ELO for balancing is visible by everyone.
Nothing beats a LAN Party with friends though. That's what Multiplayer was made for. 🥰
Yeah, I think growing up as probably the first generation that went to LAN parties on a regular basis doesn't really help enjoying modern multiplayer very much.
Reject team-based multiplayer. Play a fighting game!
Yeah for real fighting games are extremely short loops and have local communities and no team blame
Ive been playing fortnite for a while now, the only thing you really buy are all cosmetic, and I see plenty of people using the ftp skins. There's a shop that refreshes daily for new cosmetics, but it's universal, not targeted, and if you're seeing people with stuff in the shop, it's probably because they just bought it themselves. so unless I'm missing something the fortnite comment isn't true.
And yes I know, defending epic is not a very popular position lol, there's definitely enough to criticize already
