>>106768501ncsoft just announced that their latest MMORPG, aion 2, will have almost a hundred dollars a month of voluntary monthly subscription fees. 20 dollars for the standard subscription (28 days), 30 for the 'advanced' subscription (28 days), and another 20-30 dollars for the battle pass. Ontop of that, they expect to monetize the selling of ingame currency, sell cosmetics, and have a market place to sell dungeon entries and other consumables.It's an industry wide trend of out of touch morons running everything. these retarded faggots dont know how to make good games or engaging gameplay loops, but the ai/indian CEO said if you charge more money for more things then obviously you can make more money hurrdurr durr.

>>106768531They're not out of touch. All the loser pay pig gamer cattle happily pay and subscribe to all this garbage. This is just good business for them, if gamer cattle weren't all sub human retards then it would be severely out of touch but since they are all sub human retards who will pay thousands of dollars for this worthless drivel, it's actually very in touch with the market
>>106768501I don't play videogames
I was gifted an Xbox last year and every time I start to enjoy it MS makes some kidney punch announcement. It's like they hate seeing me happy. It honestly goes past just simple apathy or greed it's like they deal with the people who support them in a malevolent way. It's the strangest thing I've ever seen but we are living in a time where demonic activity in particularly high.
>>106768501Is?
>>106768501is it really so surprising? Its quite obvious that the inital offering was bait to lure people in after the market was saturated they rise the prices standard tactics see all the cloud/AI serivce they are selling
>>106768957This is correct but only because using a PC enables piracy and that's all the gaming "industry" deserves.

>>106769375best value in gaming is just pirating everything on pc. The era of console exlusives is coming to an end, even sony is putting their games like silent hill f on pc now.
>>106771669>The era of console exlusives is coming to an endThere hasn't been a true console exclusive title worth even pirating in well over a decade.
>>106768537You probably could barely buy a cheeseburger out of it.also Microsoft wants to abandon the Xbox and/or turn it into a netflix for games with their gamepass ported to different systems. So in 2045 you wouldn't be using the newest Xbox, you'd be running Xbox Gamepass on the Switch 4 or Playstation 8 or the latest Steam Deck.
