The strange thing about slop is that the normies will enjoy it for a long time after it has gotten stale, but will never criticize or realize that they're playing slop, until the winds change and a new genre/game/series/whatever gets popular. And only then will they be able to identify where the enshittification started. It's a social-based taste, where people like things because they're popular and they're afraid to criticize them or not play them.

GoT was the perfect example of this. Personally I started feeling like the quality of the show dropped significantly after season 4. I was already pretty tired and disappointed with the series by season 6. But if you mentioned this anywhere before season 8 people would look at you like you're crazy. Then Season 8 happened, and within weeks everyone suddenly agreed that the series has been shit since Season 4.

Also, from the charts it doesn't look like it's trending that hard. It's third behind a remake and a CoD game (do people still play these?), and next game on the list is a Monster Hunter title that comes out in 5 months. You'd expect it to be slightly higher if it was an amazing success.
