    No current AAA games have this on lemmy because of late they are all one or more of:

    -Massively Overhyped Flop

    -No Lasting/Enduring Replayability

    -Insufferable Gacha/Microtransactions

    -Hugely Popular, But Basically Only Played By Rabid Children/ManChildren w/ Multiple Psychological Disorders

        Yeah, it is a rare exception, though I would argue it is not really a AAA game, more AA.

        True, it did have a huge budget and a large staff, but AAA games have even larger budgets, even larger staffs, and often shorter development times.
