So which is it, has it not made any impact or has it convinced you that it will lead to the death of the industry? How strange to try and argue that it can be both. Also it's very much mainstream. Lastly it's not really just GamePass that does it. There are other gaming subscription services. Microsoft does some things differently, like putting their new releases in there day one. But subscription gaming is nothing new and even if it were, it would just be a copy of Netflix.
You are aware that movie studios still make Bluray and DVD movies, right? Music studios still put out CD's and even records are coming back. This is all while having many streaming services and also free access in many places.

Yes it can be both, but if it's both then Gamepass will just be a regular service for Xbox, nothing great nothing special and it will change nothing or add nothing to Industries . It will be just a regular service that even Playstation can do or Nintendo can do. So there is no point of game pass.

Gonna be honest, idk what any of this is trying to mean. Also, movies have big budgets too.
EA and Ubi have subscription services and have no exclusives. You're arguing against your own points you're trying to make. You say game budgets often go big and take a long time. So why would a game studio then limit access to that game to just a subscription service? Doesn't make sense.

Movies also has budget too, but Movie can only be enjoy one time and extremely less on replayability. Games are not equal with Movies. Movies are not interactive and not complicated like making games.

Sounds like you don't need GamePass to devalue games, you already do it plenty yourself. Viewpoints like this are exactly why services like GamePass can be a success. Games that are half a year old are already viewed by people with your type of mentality as "old" games and not something to be valued. Either way you're wrong, GamePass has lots of titles that launch on the service, and the AAA stuff on there has routinely been newer stuff.
|
That's the point, the games already devalue them self. Adding game pass as "mainstream" will hasten the process. Like I said that happen if Microsoft trying to make it fully free and kill the normal payment method and traditional method

Uh... fucking what? lol.
Again, where does any of this make business sense? Why would a company spend money to make physical versions of something and then price it too high? Why haven't movie or music studios started making prices for their products super high to make people go digital?
|
The less people buy hardware and physical , the less product to be produce and create rarity in the market. It will inflate the price
LudicrousSpeed said:
Another argument with zero business sense or logic. "hey subscribe to our service, the games suck!".
Don't ignore what I said about the quality of content on all the streaming services we have right now. Most of the best content you can consume right now comes from these subscription services you claim will lead to shitty content. Again, as a consumer, I don't see how that's a bad thing. Hey there's this thing that looks great. I want to watch it. I hate that it exists. Doesn't make sense.
|
The games suck because game company don't want to spend money on creating big budget title, due to people will just pay one dollar on subscription or worse. Game company are not renting it. They one to sell it

So then everything you just wrote doesn't apply? Nice.

It depends where you choose to be. Are you hoping Microsoft to gain advantage from game pass then Microsoft will surely kill triple A games . But if you are hoping it will not change and physical games will have normal price and normal ownership methode then gamepass don't add up anything and it will just a normal service that people can get on Playstation. Because the point of Gamepass is to steal Sony market and invite casual to joint Xbox and there is no point if People still buying physical games.
