▲ PlayerUnknown`s BattleGrounds

1 year ago, a game called "BattleGrounds" was published by the game company PlayerUnknown, and the game was good when it was first released. Most people in South Korea played it and called the game one of the greatest games they had ever played. Unfortunately, this game has been losing their users since January 2018. Let's see why.

The first reason why this happened was that of a surge of cheaters. Many hackers were beating everybody in the game, and some players could see a large number of cheaters in the games. People eventually got bored and unhappy with the game, so many people quit and to this day continue to dislike this game. "H1Z1", which was one of the popular games in 2017, is now broken because of hackers. The reason why it is broken is they could not catch the hackers very well. This situation seems to be similar to "BattleGrounds" nowadays. If they cannot catch hackers, the game will be gone.
The second reason is that of another game called "Fortnite," which has an easily accessible format. You don't need to have a good PC to play "Fortnite" because the format adapts to most computers. Also, the content of this game is better developed, unlike “BattleGrounds." In most western countries, there are not many PC cafes, unlike Asian countries, so many people are beginning to choose "Fortnite" to play.
Many pro-gamers have left “BattleGrounds" because it seems like too much trouble to enjoy. A member of the Korean game community said, "This game is dying because the development isn't good. They need more help because the game is lacking content; that's bad." Maybe there are ways to improve the game. How about not using hacking tools? This can make the game more fair and better than before. We can find the happiness that we got the first time we played this game.

While cheating has decreased, we still dream of when “BattleGrounds" can become a peaceful game again, without cheaters and hackers.
