Gtfo with this subscription to a news website….honestly every news site expects you to pay 3 quid a month to each of them…

I mean…I’d say if they’re writing good stories, a subscription is a better business model than ads.

Of course, that’s a high bar for most places, especially on gaming journalism where the only stories are press releases.

Yeah ads are fine, but ads that track and spy on you are bs.

They will milk CoD, D4 and OW2 until it’s drained and that will be that then

Bold of you to assume there’s anything in OW2 to milk. Blizzard did an impressive job killing that franchise dead.

I’m expecting a return to StarCraft to be honest. In the way that age of empire for a resurrection.
