Frankly, this is confusing.
Huh...
Would...topics created be another factor by any chance? I don't know what you're missing honestly.
That would make sense. I have nowhere near as high of post count as some users here, but I'm the fifth highest topic starter.
I'd never even considered it honestly. Interesting.

I mean that could be a possibility. I currently have 189 threads created.

All time? I don't fucking know. Kind of a lame genre overall, isn't it?
What genre do you like?!
Good lord man.
like, a lot
sci-fi is one genre, dude
I'm more calling back to the genre thread in gaming. It seems like you don't like many (if any) genres.

I'm still overjoyed at how this new plate turned out.
It looks really great, tbh
Thanks fam. Your avatar is pretty swell.

I just asked my Dad about it and he said you can't really add the new graphics and mechanics in a patch.
Boom. ^
>caring about graphics
>at all
You can definitely add new mechanics. DLC is made for that sort of thing.
These aren't little things like adding new characters in Smash Bros. This would be like totally overhauling the hit detection in the game and making you download that.

That's the same thing though. Why would you force updates when you could just release a new thing totally updated?
Oh and the technical side of it would be a nightmare.
Because you could make it cheaper, for one thing. $60 a year vs., I don't know, $20 a year.
"but muh sustainable business model"
That's why it's a bad genre. They don't deserve to make as much money as they do.
Could they though? Could they "just make it cheaper"? I have no idea if they could personally. iirc NHL series actually loses money or barely breaks even when they release games due to there not being a big enough crowd buying. I'm not certain about that but that could be a reason why the price is so high.

Why?
JUST PLAY THE SPORT
They clog the industry every single year with the same exact game, with an updated roster, and maybe some bug fixes or AI improvements. What they should do is release ONE game--one fucking game--called "Baseball," "Basketball," "Football," "Soccer," and whatever else, and then patch it over time. Because the differences between the games are simply not substantial enough to warrant further releases--but they continue to do this anyway, because they know you idiots are going to keep buying them. It's the biggest racket in the gaming industry.
Also, sports suck.
I do think your logic for the yearly release/update thing is a great one though. It's why I say you should buy a sports game over other year or 3 years, because only then are there big changes.
But he said 1 game.
A singular game.
Because y'know that's a sustainable business model.
Some of the changes that get implemented are pretty big sometimes though, is it actually possible to just put them in an update?
Nope.
It's a ridiculous way of thinking.

As nice as that would be it's completely counter productive. Less money for the developer Which is why sports games will continue to be my least favorite genre. I don't care if it would be a "bad business decision" to make one game--it's the right thing to do.
Make it so you have to pay for the updates, if you have to. That wouldn't be anything new.

As nice as that would be it's completely counter productive. Less money for the developer (or in this case 0 money beyond the original sale) and would ultimately create a worse game in the process. I know you like to think idealistically but for a moment could you look at it realistically. That being said I don't like the games that don't change anything. Some games have been notorious for doing so, NHL 15 being the best example. But certain games and game series continue to make leaps in improving the game. The MLB series being made by a top notch developer.

That's your reasoning? I'd love to play hockey all the time but unfortunately it costs money to rent ice and I can't play baseball in the winter! Also the whole thing about not having enough people to play at the drop of a hat. That's kind of important.

A couple years ago, I might have been able to give a nice list, but nowadays, I think it makes more sense to list genres instead, ranging from "I personally don't care for these kinds of games," to "why the fuck is this even a genre?"
1. Sports
Why?
