I look at things from a practical standpoint. Wasting development time on a game that may, at best, have a year to its name, doesn't sound like time well spent. On the other hand, there are plenty of other popular games that are up and coming, with a more stable player base to build from. Why a game like "Xera", which I honestly never heard of until this post, when "Escape from Tarkov" exists?
There are also other high profile games that exist. Such as Overwatch, which only has one legitimate hack provider. Again, I just consider the practical side. Sure, you can have a blast but if the game dies that's wasted dev time that could've been spent elsewhere. Such as improving the Apex hack, continued creation of PUBG/Rust, etc.
