  • Why do some games die so soon? I explore the reasons why many of the games I've made videos on are no longer thriving. There's also a little surprise at the end for you ;)

      I wanna play Quake but the moment I decided I wanna play, its corpse was rotting. But as an avid Respawn fan, I believe they can bring the Arena Shooter genre back, just slap some Titanfall movement and gameplay on Halo/Quake and you’ve got a fresh game.
      I really hate that Arena Shooters aren’t just dead games, it’s a dead genre. Nothing compares to an Arena Shooter’s speed and map control, plus everyone is on even ground, the only thind dividing you is skill.

I got into a lobby, and the loading screen for a match would show, just to kick everyone out, and nobody being able to play. I'm just sad that, that game that I loved SO much got left by the developers, and is now, at least when i joined back, unplayable.

      At launch the game had multiple gamebracking and unfair bugs.
      The aim assist was op af for console players.
      And the wappons and hacks where totaly unbalanced.
      Since season 2 the game was totaly polished, balanced and had so much new cool stuff in it.
      The devs where constandly improving the game and adding new events, modes, wappons and more to the game.
      So because season 2 was so damn good, the players were coming back to the game.
      Now in season 3 the game has matches with the same amount of people like a match in Apex.
      And it is still growing.
      Iam so happy and (even if it sounds weird) proud about this game.

    Age of Conan pvp was intense but you can't find the 100v100 raids that happened sometimes crashing servers. There are still players there but only a few dozen last I checked.

      Wold be cool if some big streamers tried to revive games only to show their strength, like: "Look how I and my followers can bring that dead shit to live again, who else can?" and then he gets the start in the new fever or something

    Your music video at the end of the video was amazing. I felt something I have not felt in years, my hand got clammy, I started to sweat, there were tears in my eyes! While watching I felt moved, I felt inspired. Macro, you asked a question that everybody was wondering and you gave us that answer in your own unique way. Thank you Macro, for blessing us with this masterpiece.

      chess itself hasn't gotten an update in 1200 years. think about that. There is a game that is popular today that has been around 13 centuries. it's insane.
