Sure, it helps their marketing and helps the students feel good about themselves, but this is another case of a business putting themselves before the needs of gamers. This year the students had to learn around netcode, I guess, because they made a shallow and limited PvP Battle Royale game, basically a third person arena deathmatch game with a supernatural…
