Diversification is a thing. Don’t put your all your eggs in one basket

Microsoft should of let devs dev to opt in or out of gamepass

" Only the gamers like it because the offer is too good to be true, but eventually even gamers will hate it when they realize the effects on the games.”

Studios were already releasing half baked money grabs well before gamepass. Personally I love gamepass, half these games I play I wouldnt look twice at for regular asking prices.

The gaming industry is struggling because everyone is trying to create AAA games, but they often fail. This is largely because most players are focused on popular titles like Call of Duty, Madden, FIFA, NBA 2K, College Football, Minecraft, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, Fortnite, and GTA Online.

I view Game Pass as similar to paying for online access, as it provides entry to games from Bethesda, Microsoft Gaming, and ABK Games. Without it, I would only purchase titles like Madden, NBA 2K, College Football, and Call of Duty.

It seems that nobody outside of the hardcore gaming community is buying games, and even many of them primarily purchase first-party titles from Sony or Nintendo. Recently, however, they've also started buying more Xbox games for other consoles. If you're not Take-Two or EA, your best strategy may be to focus on developing AA games. Hell Kojima isn’t even selling like that with Death Stranding 2. People are waiting for College Football 26 they aren't studying that sh1t even with that high Metacritic.

In those [see tweet]days, I've realized that I would have wasted a lot of money on mediocre to trash games .... many of which were overhyped

The devs arent putting out quality product. Good work gets bought. Bottom line

Man there's so many games that I've copped this generation because of gamepass.

So idk what they talking about.

It just helps me avoid the mid.

Not to mention the budgets have ballooned to point where some games having 200 million dollar budgets. What do you think is going to happen when that game doesn't move units in the first two weeks? Studio closed. There's also way too many games out there vying for people's time. It's gotten completely out of control and that is not the fault of GP.

These big studios need to stop doing open world everything. Some games would be way better as a level or even semi open. But no, they want the player to play for hundreds of hours instead which will make the player burn out

Reason last of us/god of war/PlayStation games are so popular imo, outside of the story, is it's not a open world. It points you in the direction you need to go and basically guides you through the story. Not everyone wants to run around a world doing everything else but the story.

Unfortunately too many gamers want open world.

Double edged sword here. I’ve found a ton of games I would have never given a chance without gamepass.
