Yeah the lock in is sad. Apparently it’s really important that airdrop exists even when people only use it to mess with their coworkers. Signal is too much effort to install or learn. Etc etc.
it does take time, as an early google adopter it took until the early 2010s before I’d had enough of their trash and it wasn’t until the late 2010s that I’d fully decoupled from Google, but it’s not like I worked on it for a decade. I worked on it for a few hours, a day or two per year, for a decade. Most of the switching effort is time. (Ok here’s how you reach me now. No mom I don’t use this address I use the other one now just update your contacts. Etc etc)
Games without minimaps but with full maps are just stupid. I’d accept it if they make you discover the maps, but most games don’t work that way.
This one sounds like there’s no maps at all, which is a choice a company can make. Their little thematic bullshit (it’s an expedition) is fine but easily, easily solvable with fog of war.
