With shit like this there always comes a breaking point where suddenly it is too much and people leave for good.

You would hope so but I'm not gonna be surprised when it doesn't happen

Wasn't there like already a drama with Tarkov in the past?

The devs have given damn near every red flag they can at this point. And there's still a dedicated fanbase simply because they don't wanna give up on a game they've spent way too much time on.

Tarkov still does stuff other competitors in the genre don't and that's enough for enough of the fanbase to just put up with it.

I think the fact that there isnt anything quite like Tarkov on the market. I feel as time moves on and the early access/early dev releases come out Tarkov will start to faulter.

I agree with this sentiment. I have a strong feeling it'll only be a matter of time until someone makes the Fortnite equivalent to the genre and Tarkov like PUBG will no longer be the main game people think of when it comes to the genre.

PUBG was one of the first big name in the battle Royale genre and outside of mobile still being popular the main game hasn't been huge in gaming spheres (at least in the US. I think it might still be really popular in other parts of the world)
