  • The problem is exclusive rights.

    If you wanna watch 3 different shows but they are all on different platforms, then you gotta go and pay for all 3. You can’t just watch the Netflix version of Loki, or the Disney+ version of Ted Lasso.

    You mentioned monopolies but the problem is that each platform holds hundreds of monopolies, each for one specific show/movie.

    In a perfect world, there would be some sort of law or agreement against exclusive rights, where every service can show any product they bought the (non-exclusive) rights to.

    In that scenario, streaming services would have to compete by being the cheapest or offering the best service.

    But alas, this is not a perfect world
















  • Definitely some cool ideas there but how do you deal with the long term effect of the map becoming too big?

    The bigger the map the more the defs would need to stretch their resources to adding cool stuff.

    Also, at some point, the inner hexes will be essential all complete cleared and new players will have to wander for a while as soon as they level up a bit.

    Unlocking a new hex would be fun at the beginning but how fun will it be after 100+ have been unlocked and any more just will inevitably just feel same-y because even the best defs will eventually run out of ideas
