I think I'm done with this game

I've been playing this game since 2017.

I've been one of it's most ardent supporters in the face of massive dislikes.

But it's simply not fun anymore.

All I want - all I've ever wanted - is simply to play Blast over and over again.

That's all I did on Battlefront 1 and I still do (although I get my butt kicked like crazy in there nowadays)

Because in BF1 Blast there are no Heroes or Villains. It's just infantry. If you beat me, you're better than me at that moment. I love it.

But now in BF2 Blast it's literally 5 or 6 out of the 8 players on BOTH sides are uber-reinforcements, with 500 health and jetpacks and rocket launchers.

Literally 95% of the time or more when I get eliminated, its by a reinforcement.

So how is that fun? 

And I know nobody cares. The creative team doesn't care.("We're done.)  The players don't care ("Get good!")

But man, I love this game when it's fair. It's gorgeous. It CAN be loads of fun. It's the culmination of my 7 year old self who saw A New Hope in the drive-in theater in 1977 and played Pong in his parent's living room religiously.

I want to love this so much. But it's just not fun anymore. It's like beating your head against a brick wall for an hour every day. 

I've done nothing but defend this game from everyone who hates on it. But they are right. It's unbalanced. It's unfairly weighted. It seems the developers want you to play only what they want you to play, and screw everyone else. 

It's a big decision to step away from this game. And maybe I just need a break? Play it less often? Probably what I'll do. 

But I'm done playing it every day. Why play a game that isn't fun? 

Good luck, everyone.
