It depends, but for the most part, yeah.
Every stupid cock sucker is either too bad to or too chickenshit to keep playing one of the actual MLG Esport games so they want every new game to cater to their 6 vs 6 arena sporting event bull shit.
match making and meta-gaming ruined a hell of a lot of multiplayer games.

>>382503432
I think developers pay too much attention to the people who don't even play their games.

He's right

Any game dev worth their salt will ignore the what the community wants. Gamers have proven time and time again that they don't actually know what they want in video games.

It depends on the environment of the community, I think. The worst types are when developers have their own personal sites with community forums, because people usually post to either A.) suck the devs' dicks and brown nose, and/or B.) bitch about everything, since most people don't even bother signing up for forums unless they're upset about something.

The three B's (Blizzard, Bethesda, and Bioware) are probably the worst offenders of this. All of them are essentially hugboxes for the developers to keep their egos stroked.

It's even more frustrating when it completely shits on the purpose of the game.

Dead by Daylight had a perk system where your character would gain game changing skills by leveling up. You could only level up by playing in ranked lists and you could not take party members into a ranked list

Not really, it's not like they change the game to appeal cancer.
