For all my criticism, I do enjoy some live service games too, but I'm of the opinion that any live service game would have been better off without those conditioning tactics, without a balance marred by Pay2Win and power creep, and if it was hostable by any player. Not all them are fundamentally bad, but they are made worse by these elements.

But unfortunately, games keep being made that way because it's more profitable.
