They’re trying to soften the blow by adding new features to each tier, but it’s still just to disguise a price hike. More games are coming to the $15 tier, but it still won’t be day and date releases. First party games come to the $15 tier “within a year”, but that’s even excluding Call of Duty.
Except this one even started shit.
Call me oldschool, but I like my games available when I want them, not held hostage behind a subscription fee.
That’s a valid opinion if you want ownership over everything else, fair.
But to blanket-label Game Pass as “shit” right from the start really isn’t fair to all those people for whom it was good value, and gave access to a lot of games they probably wouldn’t have been able to justify otherwise.
Personally it wasn’t for me, because I too don’t like subscriptions, but for some of my friends it was and I respect that.
It definitely was awesome if you were someone who gets bored of games easily and moves on. I think I get a high from the whole new game thing then it dissipates after a few hours.
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.
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!
