Friendslop is a genre that has, to put it lightly, taken over videogames recently. They're some of the most popular games on steam, streamers can't stop playing them and there are more coming out than any of us can count - but despite their success, a lot of people think of Friendslop games as being, well, slop; Poor quality, lazy and not fun - but are they?
After going on one of their largest walks, The Architect has come to the conclusion that Friendslop as a genre might be a little more complex than it seems, and in their search for the secret appeal of the genre, The Architect has found that it's what friendslop *doesn't* do that defines its success.
