It's clear GGG ran out of ideas for leagues once Bestiary was introduced as a league, ever since than most leagues have been some stupid gimmick from another game. Remember how original bestiary had you capturing beasts as if they were pokemon and how cancerous the nets were?
Syndicate and the OG Synthesis is board game gimmicks,
Blight had tower defense gimmicks.
Metamorph admittedly had the fun gimmick of morphing all the monsters into one, sad it got removed.
OG Harvest was farmville slop.
Heist was a failed attempt at imitating games like Payday.
Sanctum is roguelike slop.
Ancestor is autobattler slop.
Settlers is mobile game slop, no better than World of Warcraft garrisons during WoD.
You can tell the leagues people have fun with are the ones where it's simply killing shit and getting loot rather than niGGGers stealing ideas from other games while failing catastrophically. I have skipped some of the leagues like Necrropolis so maybe there are more leagues where GGG threw shit at the wall seeing what sticks.
