You really don't see a difference of paying/accepting money to keep a game / dlc away from other platforms and paying/accepting money to offer a game on additional platforms?

You can't be that naive to think that the same won't happen with subscription services, if it doesn't already between ps now, gamepass, stadia, ps+, xbl gold, and what else we have already.

Are or were there any GamePass games exclusive or timed exclusive for that subscription model or were they also available to buy in the Xbox marketplace?

Are or were there any PSnow games exclusive or timed exclusive for that subscription model or were they also available to buy in the PS Store?

Are or were there any XBL Gold games exclusive or timed exclusive for that subscription model or were they also available to buy in the Xbox marketplace?

Are or were there any PS+ games exclusive or timed exclusive for that subscription model or were they also available to buy in the PS Store?

Are or were there any PC games exclusive or timed exclusive for a PC subscription model or were they also available to buy?

Has any developer team claimed that they weren't allowed to release their game on another platform due to their PC or console subscription contract?

No? Then at this point the subscription moneyhatting allegation is pure FUD.

If we'll cross that bridge, we can discuss changed opinions about gaming subscriptions again.

P. S.: Funnily enough, it is "good guy" Nintendo who offers time-limited access to certain games on Switch only via subscription and doesn't give us the option to buy the NES- and SNES-collections on Switch instead of renting them.
