  Why do you think it is that way right now?

    I find massive value in the service so I subscribe to it. When I don’t I won’t. It’s not the deep “bro”. Maybe Microsoft does have some underlying motive to reshape the gaming industry but I’m not going to think about it that hard. Also things change and it’s ok. Apple started the digital music movement BTW and I’m not an artist so that is theirs and the labels deal to negotiate. Spotify is great value too FYI.

      I know, precisely what I am trying to do is get you to think about it harder.

        Plenty of other things in my life that require that attention over a video game service.

  Just wait for the enshitication. Once they have a stranglehold on the gaming industry, that’s when the prices go up and the benefits go down.

    Nobody is forcing anyone to subscribe.

      It doesn’t make a difference. They’ll enshitify that service to hell whether you subscribe or you don’t.

        Amazing how I’ve been hearing the same thing since the service released 8 years ago. Will it eventually get shitty? Probably. But in the meantime it’s a phenomenal value.

      They said that about steam and look at us now.

      It’s people flocking to it until it’s the only place to release games that is gonna force you.

        People use something out of value and/or convenience. It taking over is just the effect of that. It’s capitalism not some underlying motive from the corporation. Of course a business wants their product to succeed.
