>>22390462I posted in this earlier. and these threads get so convoluted with peoples random ideas for features. That is the issue.
Features do not make games.
The addition or subtraction of anyone feature does not make the entirety of a gaming experience. This board as a whole focuses a lot of features that we enjoy and our duress when they are no longer included. In fact their exclusion or poor execution is often what leads us to hate titles.
This board has a really hard time dealing with the addition and removals. GF does this to make each region have its own experience. Having repetitive experiences will kill the franchise as a whole (go look at COD), not fix it like the board seems to think it will. More is not always better.
While many of the cut features like customization, following, ect were great they do not define the franchise as a whole. It is incredibly difficult to update a brand without alienating everyone in some way.
