Suscriptions are good for short-term users, but bad for long-term users.
Not to mention the games are not really yours.
And these days almost everything is Suscription based, and i hate it.
To be fair, except for GOG, none of the games bought on digital stores are ever really yours. See the recent debacle about The Crew.
Yeah i hate that, since when those mf call the shots? Screw them, if buying is not owning, piracy is not stealing(never was to begin with).
Yeah I get it. It turns out subscription services are everywhere and have been for quite some time so there's no need to really inform people about the pros and cons at this point.
Sure I don't own the games. But then again, I don't tend to replay old games ever. There are SO MANY new games coming out all the time, I've never understood the urge to go back and replay an old game. Chances are there's a new game out there that's the same idea but better.
My only point here is that GamePass Ultimate is basically paying more to have access on Windows AND Xbox and I don't use the Windows version anymore. It will save me money when it's time to renew. Hooray linux!
That's because old games are focuaed on entertaining you instead of focusing on Graphics, pandering, scolding you, lecturing you and telling you to be ashamed of yourself for existing.
That's why Gen Z is going for retro gaming.
Why don't you tell us what you really think?
I think the videogames got heavier and more resource demanding than older games.
Not to mention the live service games, which honestly, i reject with all my soul.
