    Promising everything for everyone. Usually on a shoestring budget and an unrealistic development length.

    "This." Especially when they do a kickstarter and ask for a fraction of what a game might cost to develop.

    Well, I hate to go meta on this, but I would say the first clue that a game developer is a moron is that they are "game developers"

    Will be based on WEB3 and / or Blockchain tech.  Bonus moron points if creating their own cryptocurrency or NFTs.

    I mean... really anything.  It's a combination of things that seem to enable a game.  Everything for everyone, a huge no.  Everything based on some sort of kickstarter.  No real foundation, let the money found your game.   A year passes and every promise  is the same...  There are some games that sidestep/do all this well.  They aren't the issue, I guess its games/developers who want money (every game wants money) that aren't willing to bend/create a real game.

    Calling a game "multiplayer" when it only features 1 to 4 player co-op.  Describing their game as PvPvE when it will inevitably keep neither PvP players nor PvE players happy.

    Curious.  What would you call a game that supports 4 player co-op?

    Co-op multiplayer?  :)

    Most definitely not a MMO though.

    Definitely not massive, but surely multiplayer is the right word.
