Valor? Now I've read it all lol
I agree with the general sentiment (I was typing out a post that said something similar myself actually), but can you clarify what you mean by the word "valor" in this context? That is throwing me off.
Who?
Nobody who lives in the real word has time for a mediocre videogame unless you are 12 years old or unemployed. Neither demographic is a good customer.
Just a few years away from peak stock market value, hasn't been close ever since.Actually can't argue with that.
But chocolate bars where twice as big. Everything was awesome.
You mean, "value."I dunno if it's the right word since it's not my main language. What I mean was on the same post if you read it. It means "what the thing you bought is worth in comparison with the price paid". The more expansive, the more critic the person who paid gets because he expects that price to justify the product or service.
.I'd wager they've already hit a ceiling on subscribers.
Got it, so I think the word here would be "worth" or "value", "valor" to my knowledge means bravery and heroism, which do not fit hereI dunno if it's the right word since it's not my main language.

I disagree. Why would anyone spend $70 for Doom the Dark Ages when they can play Destiny 2, Call of Duty Warzone, Marvel Rivals, etc for free?Gamepass lowered people's standards
Pig shite like Crackdown 3 or other mediocre releases have been dismissed by people as a "oh well i got it for free so it's fine "narrative.
At the time I thought it was all fun and games. I got a PS4 and cheered it on. I didnt realize until years later how many lives were changed because of the devaluing. They even had free online and started PS+ free games. I bet the casualties were in the millions ...
Please support gaming everyone. You wouldn't let your friend borrow your car.
Plenty of people played Ghost of Tsushima.Bullshit.
Nobody plays medicore, free or not.
I'm not usually a fan of PC Gamer, but I have to admit that they nailed it with this article.
We're all paying the price for this broken gaming subscription model that treats games like fast food, it makes them cheap, disposable, and stripped of value.
Fucking Xbox man
The boat your are on is the industry. Gamepass is sinking it. MS' plan is clear. They want to sink everything, ride it out and take what's left. Let it go. Companies are not your friends and you usually should not be helping them accomplish their evil goals just because they gave you a coupon.
here come chorizo to make fun of Jiz:

But the Rubicon has been crossed: GP Killed Xbox and is killing the industry and it's worse than piracy. "cancell Gamepass" Movement is in full effect.
Good luck Phil changing the narrative

L LakeOf9 I feely response valid considering some of the takes in here?Maybe if you read the article, or even the excerpts in the OP, you would have the answers to these questions?
Just a suggestion
Fun fact, but I've actually glossed over my receipts and never ever did I payed a full price for any given time with GPU. It's funny, because I've never even searched a deal, it was rather heavily discounted, was offered with my hardware purchase or just gifted to me by some service provider.
With an economy like this and failed second E in EEE strategu it's no wonder that monumental debt is finally catching up with Xbox. A rare good summary by PC Gamer btw.
I can see it being a proper response to some of the discussion in the thread for sure, but not to the article or topic itself. PC Gamer writes that Microsoft needed enough content to give Game Pass a proper shot at success, which led to the acquisition spree; the failure of Game Pass to gain traction then made Microsoft pull back on their investment in it, and led to the closures and layoffs we have seen from them.
Maybe so but I can't overlook the horror on display in that video. Literally cannibized a game sale right there and smiled right when it passed to his hands. Promoting it. Literally encouraging game cannibalizing as much as possible. They are cannibals. I just see the blood on their hands. Pass, boom $60.gone.Ironically I feel like used game sales encouraged paid DLC as publishers looked for ways to get revenue back from game sales they saw no money from.
I shed a tear for 'the industry' that day … so much unrealised revenue … so much player value, lostMaybe so but I can't overlook the horror on display in that video.

After borrowing a game I just didn't value it …![]()
Level of copium
I agree that $80 is too much for most titles, but I also don't like the Game Pass model. Giving games away day one might seem like a great deal for players, but I think it's damaging in the long run. It sets unrealistic expectations and devalues the effort behind these games.Devaluation is good, games are extremely expensive. Charging $70 for a game should be a crime.
Shots fired!Plenty of people played Ghost of Tsushima.
Bizarre assumption by the writers that MS would want to cancel these amazing games … Or hasn't Gamepass lowered the bar? Wouldn't MS have just pushed these games out the door to fuel the Gamepass beast even if they did look shit or unfinished?Kinda weird article, since it's already clear that canceled games were the ones that seemed to be struggling. Everwild, Perfect Dark…
Gamepass isn't the reason why devs at the Initiative and Rare couldn't deliver a realized product at agreed milestones.
Sega did game pass in the 90s and was considered innovative Microsoft does it and it's not good, PlayStation plus is the same thing just with way less games, I think there's a giant warehouse of servers with negative game pass threads we have to just embrace game pass
At least the publisher got paid full price once. Would it be better if Adam had given Shu $20 and Shu got to pick what game Adam got to play? Is this post satire that I'm not understanding?Maybe so but I can't overlook the horror on display in that video.

Boy, why you lying?At the time I thought it was all fun and games. I got a PS4 and cheered it on. I didnt realize until years later how many lives were changed because of the devaluing. They even had free online and started PS+ free games. Steep sales were a common occurrence, even cross buy with Vita. I bet the casualties were in the millions ...
Please support gaming everyone. You wouldn't let your friend borrow your car. End physical media and end game theft; developers deserve better.
