I understand the subscription model is required since every player is bound to cost them money for every round, but apparently even if you’re already subscribed to GeoGuessr you have to pay again for the Steam version which is absurd to me.
Yeah, that seems quite weird and not customer friendly at all. I was wondering if it has something to do with Steam’s in-game purchase conditions (mostly the fee).
I’m not sure if it’s just because Ubisoft has a special contract but for Trackmania I’m able to pay the subscription either through Ubisoft directly or through Steam.
The steam version of trackmania is quite weird - I looked for a way to pay for it through steam for a while before resignedly going into the Ubisoft payment in the overlay… Only to be directed to steam for payment. I’m not sure if it’s even possible to pay through Ubisoft when launching it from steam.
