We have too many games.

We need fewer, but better products.

More shit for the shitpile isn’t a good thing. It’s a waste of resources and only serves to make the good stuff harder to find.

No, and most people upset about this are never exposed to it.

They want to censor things for everyone else.

You know who controls the you know what.

Nobody is forcing you to read them.

Let me guess, though. People are saying things you don’t like, therefore you feel the need to censor it for everyone else?

Fuck you and all the children that agree with you.

No they didn’t.

That’s if you’re naive/childish/innocent enough to assume that everyone playing this on game pass would’ve bought it if game pass wasn’t an option.

Same backwards logic to convince useful idiots that each pirated copy is a lost sale.

Not everyone is an innocent child with disneyvision who believes corporations and their employees are there friends.

It doesn’t affect prices for me.

I haven’t bought a video game in years and I don’t plan on starting anytime soon.

It’ll be nice when the leeches bleed the industry dry and we’re only left with people that, you know, actually care about the games.

Who cares? Anyone in bed with microsoft or activision deserves all the shit coming their way and then some.

Nintendo always sucked ass.

Capcom was one of the few old greats that still had some goodwill left.

Now it’s clear their analysts are using that goodwill to increase next quarter’s profits.

We only have “they’re a business and they need to make money!” rhetoric to blame.

Doesn’t surprise me at all.

E-sports people are easy to take advantage of.

I think he’s just not an idiot like most of the people who are finally cancelling their subscriptions.

I know, it’s rare to find someone who isn’t eager to be ripped off.

but now will probably sign up for Playstation Network for the first time.

Fucking hell… some people legitimately never learn.

They are destined to be suckers for life.

It’s all a scam.

It’s been a scam since the first Xbox where they charged people to play online.

The thing is, once they see dumbasses are willing to be scammed, they see no reason to stop there.

The only winning move is not to pay.

Just so you know, they only thought you were stupid enough to pay more because you were stupid to enough to pay at all.

Use your brain before your wallet. Start torrenting.

Stop being average.

You should start using your brain instead of your wallet and begin torrenting.

For all the money you’ve wasted renting games with gamepass, you could’ve been owning them with a fraction of the cost of a VPN.

Sigh

Don’t buy them. Torrent them.

Can we stop being stupid pawns?

You should get into emulating.

Way more better games that you wouldn’t be playing otherwise. And it’s all free.

Keep in mind, this corporation has data saying people are willing to subscribe to office software when there are legally free alternatives.

All the morons subscribing to these scams are data points for analysts to point to and say “See? Look at how stupid these people are! There’s no reason we shouldn’t be charging them more because they love to pay it!”

I guess it would make sense if

Why do you people keep doing this?

It doesn’t make sense. Anyone who continues to pay for this is an even bigger idiot than the people who paid for it prior.

Those people should just learn to pirate and stop being useful idiots.

They should also get into emulating so they can play all the better games that they missed out on.

But let’s be real: it was about consumption for the sake of consumption.

isn’t fair to all those people for whom it was good value

Yeah man, same argument for the people getting ripped off by their drug dealers.

Who cares if the dealer is making 500% profit? If the loser junkie thinks it’s a good deal, then it must be!

Same.

Everytime I saw a dipshit shilling gamepass, it just reinforced my opinion of the average idiot.

Everyone who is upset now should’ve been upset sooner, but it’s better than nothing. I guess.

Still paying for things you could be getting for free.

It was always a scam.

Hopefully you learned your lesson and won’t go to bat for corporations trying to get you to rent access to something you could be getting for free.

Use your brain before your wallet, always!

Woo!

The morons who love renting get to pay more now!

I love watching this!

I think the people in charge have never heard of Dragon Age.

I’m also not saying it’s guaranteed, just a possibility.

My point is they will be so unfamiliar with RPGs that they essentially let the studio do whatever they want.

Maybe they get shuttered or are given more creative freedom thanks to the Saudi’s ignorance of RPGs and their perception among executives in the business.

I guarantee you, Saudis really only care about FIFA. Everything else is superfluous.

It happened with the developers behind Fallout as well. They became Obsidian

Ok, well, let’s not forget that the only reason Fallout achieved mainstream popularity is because Bethesda took it and applied their Elder Scrolls formula.

The Outer Worlds

Which although being more polished than Fallout, was nowhere near as good. They also had some bad writers with an agenda that made sure players couldn’t have relationships.

BioWare needs to take its talent and go indie.

Bioware has no talent in 2025.

That’s kind of an upgrade, at this point.

Bioware has essentially existed to pander to a very small minority for the past decade. I don’t think they’re capable of making a good game anymore, but at least they won’t get any support from anyone for their mediocrity.
