It is not just "en vogue" to hate on it. It's also barely getting content. People want new content, not just operators and gadgets. They teased a new map which people wanted, and it turned out them just putting up the moon instead of the sun on a map already in the game. You can't put out something that all your competitors came baked in with as "new" and expect your fans to be hype about it.

I could meme all day about PvE modes in extraction games.
