Even the MbS mess aside, the industry broadly have made their choices in what sort of communities they want to grow. Think games being so centered on online ranked have done at least something to shape how people getting into them now see things. I really don't know how you come back from this.

I've been getting the itch a ton recently (I moved to Shinjuku a year ago so I feel almost obligated) but it's just shitty thinking of where we were even just before COVID.
