Large numbers of Payday 3 Steam players have abandoned the heist FPS, which now sits more than 100 places beneath predecessor Payday 2 on the most-played chart.
If I had to take a stab in the dark, you’re probably thinking of when Overkill released weapon skins with additional unique stats attached to them and trying to make the game Pay2Win with MTX - which is something Overkill themselves said they would never ever do. They got major backlash from the community and reversed that bit of the MTX stuff. The other major drama was either Overkill or Starbreeze going bankrupt and the CEO more or less hightailed out of there to get away from some major legal issues as well as multiple failures with other projects that were not Payday.
Either way, Overkill is going to literally live or die with PD3 because it’s quite literally the only franchise they had that can make any amount of money.
