- Burnout
- Lack of upfront funding (before a game is ever released)
- Generally bad economy post COVID
- Actual predatory exclusive tactics from epic or gamepad

Things not cited in this article as a problem:

What are ads?
I haven’t had an ad in my house or on my devices in like 15years. I block all ads.
When I go elsewhere or out and see an ad I literally get confused for a second before I remember people still let them play.
Don’t suffer through ads friend.
