@reconzero Certainly. GTA 6 trailer is coming out today and its one of those so anticipated games that if they come up with something completely new it will certain turn the whole gaming industry trend towards something else. Also nothing beats a good single player story (GTAs, Witcher 3, some of the Assassins Creed games, RDRs etc).
I think the PvP element related dopamine addiction is a thing with the younger generation. So much and immediately. I like to take my doses in smaller batches and find that feeling of success in smaller things like hitting a good shot or finding a great angle for particular situation. If the games are not going my way today I play something else and try again tomorrow. Other end of the player spectrum you see these people coming here to complain how they are feeling miserable for not yet securing a 20 bomb in the past 2 weeks even though they grind 6 hours a day. And therefore they think MM is a problem or cheater problem is out of hand (not saying it isnt but you get the point).
Also besides good AI I think variety is the solution. Mixtape offers some but not enough since its still PvP. When I dont feel like having a shootout in RDR2 I go hunting or treasure hunting etc.
Lets get some more campaigns and single player games at this point. Bring back the PvE era.
Its all I have left as an old guy.
PC players are leaving, thats a fact, and my bet is : its mostly MnK Players.
Adding Cross Progression without an OptOut for Crossplay based on Inputtype isnt a good idea, and now they slowly pay the price.
Honest Controller Players dont like to play MnK Opponents bcs of the Movement Advantage, and honest MnK players dont like to play against assisted Aiming.
Also the Matchmaking not working as advertised make people leave, Players are fed up getting low level bots as mates when they got promised the skillgap wont be that large anymore. I predict the average number will be down to 120K until Christmas, "The Finals" will start in a couple of Days, and troves of MnK Players will just move on.
@r1ggedgame I think you are right on this one. I might even go one deeper that its purposefully done 4D brain move to weed drive the bitching and black cloud MnK players out for a nice enviroment for console kids. As a EA/Respawn business manager thats how I would explain it to the board to gain best profit.
Out of my sons school/footie friends none play on MnK. Yet everyone plays games. For example my son got over 100€ worth of gift cards for Xbox store from his buddies on his birthday.
50% was spent on some new game (Fifa or something) and 50% went on Fortnite V-bucks...
