What's wrong with games that update frequently? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Players love games that have a lot of updates. After all, gacha games are popular because they continue to update frequently. But what's wrong with this? Well, it opens the possibility of players losing the ability to continue playing the games. Phones, computers, and even consoles refuse to continue support for ongoing games. Newer devices require more updates to play games, and even simple games are starting to require newer more high quality devices. This makes it harder to play games in the first place, or continue playing games you're already playing. A good example of this is Genshin Impact. Even though the company wanted to continue letting fans play, PlayStation ended update support for the PS4 just so fans would have to buy a PS5 instead. With companies caring less and less about their consumers and prioritizing money, it makes playing games even more difficult for fans. This is really disappointing, because originally frequently updated games could be played for years with no issues. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because it's getting hard to play games, which ruins the point of playing games in the first place. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
