We all know games that follow the hype train and follow the most recent trends. A good example are the following multiplayer games who abide by these trends to stay relevant.

Video games such as Fortnite , Call of Duty and other major brands that use these tactics without going back to their roots. They host events with characters from other franchises or even shows that are currently trending.

A good example of a few games that makes use of this practice is Call of Duty and Fortnite. They host with occasion events that involve something in regards of Star Wars , Anime or something else to stay relevant. However recently these actions have a backwards effect on the people who play these games.

Call of Duty’s Bundles

This is something that was shared by Call of Duty’s active channel on steam promoting their predatory bundles as can be observed none of these characters have something to do with the army even incorporating Spawn at a certain point. With actions like that franchises that were serious contenders for something have become a caricature of their former selves with a simple action. The question now is how long will the franchise survive if they have to resort to these crazy acts? In my opinion a franchise does not deserve to live long after selling themselves out.

As the games itself do not reinvent themselves or take a route back to what made the franchise great.
