  • Sports are able to be replayed indefinitely.

    Summer sports leagues are specificly set up for a limited time engagement based on how the games play out and respond to the player base. It is a perfect comparison to well executed live service games.

    Not all gsmes need single player or long term playability just like not all games need online multiplayer.

    • No, it's not. Because the sport doesn't disappear when the league is over. If you want to run a league for StarCraft: Brood War, you can do that with a Discord server. If you want to run a league for Hyperscape, the game is fucking gone.

      • You should really complain about how baseball doesn't have a single player mode.

        • You really should understand what the actual complaint is.

          • I disagree with the complaint being valid for every single game in existence.

            • Then go ahead and fight for your forced obsolescence. I personally prefer games and other creative works that don't arbitrarily delete themselves. Meanwhile, Ubisoft convinces people that it must be this way while they decommission one version of The Crew so that they upsell you on a sequel.

              • "Stop having fun!"

                • Sure, man. I've just been telling you to stop having fun this whole time, regardless of the problem statement in title of the article we're discussing. I think we're done here.
