Then let’s ask X people too – aren’t they part of the player base? And let’s ask Reddit as well. Idk, guys, I’m completely out when it comes to strategic decisions, because one thing I can say for sure is that in such matters, representative groups from Discord/forum are extremely insufficient. And this happens, they’re dissatisfied with how members respond on the official channels. So yes, if something was promised and not implemented, or was once implemented and later removed, that’s one thing. But a feature that was actually pushed forward both by the stockholders and the players and has already been announced should be accepted as a fact.
As for me, since inZOI is offering this, I know people will be streaming. I’ll probably drop by for a test or gladly watch on Twitch, or else look for invites in some local chats, since I don’t have many people yet. For now, I associate it with a model similar to GTA Online.
