Don’t forget all the online requirements with accounts even if you want to play single player, and constant server issues on launch that seem to happen with every game now because none of them allow community servers anymore.
The death of community servers is why I stopped playing multiplayer.
The gaming landscape was just so much better back when communities were able to self-host and moderate before matchmaking and corporate automated moderation became the norm.

I still play multiplayer, but on games that still support community servers like Minecraft, Enshrouded, Arma 3, Space Engineers…
How has Enshrouded been doing? I haven’t been able to get on my PC in almost a year and only got to play it on initial release.
It’s good, there’s been a few major updates adding new zones, better NPCs, animals, more gear/weapons, and so on…
At least it is still being updated and just happy to hear it hasn’t gone dark like most other Early Access titles.
Yeah they’re making steady progress on major updates, and releasing patches for bugs and tweaks in between.
