Yea same here. Sounds like a phone game coming to PC. Like Diablo immortal. No thanks.
Lost me at "Zynga."
Ok ... truth told, I started fading away after "Star Wars", too. But "Zynga" was the clincher.
Anything with "Zynga" or "Star Wars" is a money grab. Put them both together and it's a colossal money grab.
Don't even talk to me about Zynga. In the late 2000s and early 2010s, I worked for a freelance QA software testing company, and Zynga was one of our biggest clients (nVidia was another). We worked on a ton of their Facebook games, and I was on teams that launched games, such as Cityville. I spent as much as 80 hours a week working on their crap. It has been many years since I heard the name "Zynga", and I could have gone the rest of my life without hearing that name ever again.
Same with me too.
That was certainly my first thought.
Came out in May for consoles/mobile when they also announced it would arrive on PC later.

Yeah the look of this wreaks of a mobile game, which would be a no for me.
