MS same fukkass company want you pay a subscription to type a goddamn letter
Subscription fatigue is setting in and the sooner the better
Or you can pay 10 to upgrade games, 70 for 1st party ones or increased prices on a PS5 consoles.

Oh so show that only happened and blossomed because of a digital platform
yeah, a show that wouldn't exist if it weren't funded by netflix themselves. Most outside studios don't want their success tied to a streaming service, and in the case of video games know theey can't afford to take the same loss as microsoft with AAA games

False, they aren't getting a bag any other way. Physical media sales aren't giving the return they use to.
People want to be able to digitally stream and watch stuff when they want.
Studios are even releasing movies and shows to there own platforms sooner. No studios is crying about having to put there movie on a streaming service as opposed to not in hopes of getting better returns.
It becomes less of an option when you have huge corporations paying billions to consolidate publishers to feed their subscription services.
That's why I'm against this acquisition war going on right now, but Microsoft could buy every major third party publisher in the industry and you'd celebrate it as a win.

Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
Gee, pay a one time cost and own something. What a crazy idea.Or you can pay 10 to upgrade games, 70 for 1st party ones or increased prices on a PS5 consoles.

Its almost as if the direct to consumers models hasn’t been a thing the entire time video games existed and continue to be the most popular method of consuming games

That's fantastic sir but day-one deal != post launch deal. The whole point of the comment was that the subscription deals are often not as profitable for indie developers as out right selling the game for $70 on the next gen platforms.
A lot of people still seem to believe just because content is on a subscription service, it's user base is guaranteed to consume it when we all know that's not true. Consider any streaming service you currently subscribe to and guestimate the percentage of it's content you've actually consumed.
Not to mention the price hikes because these sub services aren't profitable.
This is so false.
Elden ring seems to be fine, control, far cry, hitman, resident evil, red dead, GTA ...
The list goes on and on. Gamepass doesn't make any of those games more or less likely to have micro transactions.
In fact the truth of the matter is game pass devs more freedom and the ability to NOT have to add those things.
Whatever calisto protocol feels like they can get on Xbox and PC must putway whatever MS is offering.
Which very well may be true, however when or if revisited in the future that might change.
1st out what is the last indie game that you played that is 70 on release?!
If this game actually drops at 70 for current gen they are going to find out pretty quick the very opposite of what you are saying. Unless this game is crispy, polished and flushed out.
NZA
LOL
does MS prevent them from releasing the game traditionally first and then bringing it to gamepass when the sales cool off?
Nope.
It’s just another option. There’s countless devs that have come out praising gamepass for the freedom and profitability it offers but the @Gizmo_Duck s of the world ignore all of that so they can keep saying this same dumb shyt
