Comment on GOG seems to be considering paid membership option
deoliveira@feddit.org 2 days agoSony and Nintendo won’t go anywhere any time soon. Console gaming is easier and “cheaper” than PC gaming, and most people don’t care (or know about) non-DRM.

Consoles won’t go away, but they’re in the process of transforming. Peak spending on consoles was all the way back in 2009 and has dropped ever since. There are perhaps dozens of reasons for the change, but one of them might be that the average consumer picked up on the air quotes around the ways consoles are cheaper. As for non-DRM, as long as piracy remains better than the official option, there’s money being left on the table, and I have confidence that a lot of that will change too, though it will be far slower than I’d like.
