I appreciate the perspective and refinement of the idea.
Yeah, I'm in the crowd of like, bought a Madden game once, had decent fun with it... and then realized the business model is just 'add two features, take 2 away', every fucking year and the whole thing is a scam.
I'm looking for actually new kinds of gameplay, something novel, or maybe a hodgepodge of mechanics tuned or arranged in a new kind of way, or like, absolutely perfected.
Either that or compelling stories and characters, or something with a really distinct art/graphical style.
Like uh, Clair Obscura arguably checks at least most of those boxes for most people... Elden Ring is basically the 'perfected' version of Dark Souls, etc.
But yeah... either disingenuous or just truly stupid, as you put it.
