I feel this way about Back 4 Blood too. It got a taste of backlash for not living up to the hopes of Left 4 Dead players - but, it has plenty of its own enjoyable elements (Left 4 Dead doesn't really let you run a "build" that "specializes" in one thing and accepts a set of weaknesses). The developers announced they were going to stop updating it - but that only means it doesn't file into the category of junky "Live service" noncompetitive games, which to me is fine. People shouldn't necessarily avoid it on sale, the servers are up and it's still fun.
