pretty much any multiplayer game that doesn't stop getting major updates a few years after release eventually turns to shit though. devs start changing the game way too much for whatever reason and it drives away current players while not bringing in many new ones.

Planetside 2 was at its peak during the beta and after getting passed from company to company like a whore it's been completely destroyed and also inexplicably gotten multiple graphics and performance downgrades despite modern hardware being so much more powerful than in 2012.
Fuck Theybreak games and fuck Sony for giving it to them.

A single update nearly killed Hunt: Showdown for good. There were a LOT of dogshit changes when Crytek put it on their new engine, but the worst offender was that they *removed* two of the three maps because they hadn't reversed engineered them to work on the new engine yet, and instead made a new map that was by far the worst the game had seen yet, and by forcing people to play on it instead of maps they actually liked, nearly killed the game.

It's all since been rectified and the game is probably in the best state its been since forever, but it was a real dark patch there.

Starbound, the beta was alright since the incentive was on exploration. The full game removed all the interesting lore and gave shitty dungeons that gatekeeped content.

It was made a company called Introversion. No launcher, no DLC, no DRM, and little updates that made the game better. I'm not even sure if they still have the custom prisoners they had for early supporters.

War Thunder.
Slavs are retarded (news at 11) and gutted the historical WW2 brackets with modern and proto-shit. And nerfed rewards. And made the maps worse. And removed the good maps, slowly but surely. Then fucked the balancing up with volumetric, added lootboxes, ruined chat (you can only send a message every 15 seconds or so), added helicopters that could sling ATGMs farther than any SPAA's maximum range, and a plethora of other things.

Nothing has made me more racist against the Slavic animal than a game of their own creation.

This is like prime case of people misunderstanding what made the old good. It wasn't good because it was... le good. It was good because it was new and exciting. They have classic mode. And it's fucking shit. And nobody wants to play 0 skill solved game with really simple cards.

Warcraft 3 is still fine in a gameplay sense, custom games and campaign are good, but Reforged's initial release is the worst the game ever was, and it's never fully recovered. Worse is that I believe they're going to soon make it that you can't put your old CD Key in your Battle.net account if you haven't already, which is extra shitty, but I don't expect anything more from Blizzard.

They don't. They got rid of it. That was the only mode that made me enjoy the game again for a little while.

Overwatch was so good at launch and up until Sombra was released at which point it progressively got shittier and shittier with each update, to the point where it felt like sabotage. From the pre-release and early lore getting shit on, to low skill hero’s that were designed to neuter high skill characters, to balance changes for competitive ruining quick play. OW2 was the final nail in the coffin. It’s clear the ones who originally made the game weren’t the ones left to support it and it feels like those people wanted to simply watch the game die.

Because they have a dedicated launcher that hosts every version of the game since alpha with the server software? You can play old minecraft on a big server right now, it's not comparable to the live service games that got wrung out like a wet towl and then shot out back in the woodshed or shit like Stellaris where the only way to play old versions of the game is piracy

Team Fortress 2 would have been better off if it just recieved no updates and official servers were shut down

The game is intentionally being slowly killed because valve doesnt wanna deal with the fallout of shutting down servers and vaporizing a digital economy

Halo.... ;w;

>>724814162
The lesson to be had is purchase non-live service games that don't purely exist so retards can fight each o ther instead of enjoying a curated experience via singleplayer story that actually makes your purchase worthwhile. Either way.
>TF2
The start was the manconomy update and the final blow was when they violently rebalanced the game by letting you pick up dropped weps and doing cs:go weapon skin shit.
>Master Duel
Too much fucking power creep makes nothing viable but I still play my low-tier rogue deck the best humanly possible and can confidently say I'm the greatest Subterror archetype player on earth.
>Runescape
Evolution of Combat being the death of the game. 'Oldschool' is not even genuine to actual RS2 in the slightest and a pale imitation by this point. Although I don't fault anyone for still enjoying it as outside of maybe vscape it likely is the closest you'll get to kino Runescape.
>Dead by Daylight
The game was never possible to be balanced. it is just blowing killers and crying that survivors have irl friends. Still as a survivor main I obviously had much more fun when Die Hard (or whatever the lunge was called) actually wasn't shit.
>Payday 2
Too much bloat with enemy types.
