Monopoly, The Game of Life, and Catan are solid choices!

Unfortunately it seems Battlefield and COD have gone that way

Monopoly, Catan, and Risk – office drama in board games!

I would put Fortnite right into there with the label of corporate game.

Corporate games usually have one or many of these traits:
1. Has microtransactions. Even if the game was paid.
2. Launch is incredibly buggy. Bugs that should have been found with even a basic playtest are somehow present.
3. Needs an account to play.
4. If shit goes downhill they pull out a collab card.
5. Player experience isn’t a priority.
6. Horrible writing,
7. Doesn’t attempt to build on anything or add anything new.
8. Punishes players who don’t give them money.
9. Lack of communication with players.
10. Player concerns are ignored or thrown aside.

Fortnite, any battle Royale or FPS game with heavy focus on collabs and multiplayer

Any game that comes from a company beholden to shareholders is a “corporate” game to me. When the goal is primarily to keep raising their stock price rather than make quality products, it is what it is. No matter how successful a game is, you always need to do 5% more or 10% more the next time and that’s what leads to all the bullshit practices we see nowadays.

“Corporate” Games = liveservice games with egregious and predatory microtransactions.
I’d put “The first descendant” which just released this week on that list.
Fortnite too. Because it had way too many scandals involving kids wasting incredible amounts of money & making it way to easy (or better fast) to buy things in their shop.

Why are we being nice?
We should call them predatory games and force their hand. They want to add predatory transactions to games then we need to properly call them out on it instead of sugar coating it.
