Vampire Survivor.
I began playing it after so much praise from all over the place and it just uses predatory tactics to hook the gamer. I only had fun with the game for maybe a day or so but overall clocked in many more hours of hate-playing. The only good thing is that the developer (who's background is developing gambling games) does not use those tactics for microtransactions.
Once I deleted the game, I was never even tempted to go back.
Sure, he worked in the sector, but that's because he couldn't find better jobs. What you're implying here is really unfair, especially considering there aren't even any microtransactions in the game. As far as I know, he just made a game that he felt was fun.
