  Well, I mean, I don’t advocate for anyone to subscribe to Gamepass for a couple different reasons.

  But, like…yeah? Like, why would you shit on pricing coming down? That’s objectively good for the end consumer. It’s always up to each individual to decide if they want to pay, but for anyone who does or is considering, this is a good sign. Unless you exclusively did it for COD I guess, but that’s a different issue.

    Yeah right -they are realising they fucked up and trying to correct it. It’ll be too little too late for many people - but at least they are trying. Must companies seem to pull this shit then double down when they’re criticised.

    I don’t think they’re shitting on “pricing coming down”. They’re shitting on “company raises pricing, faces backlash, promises not to do it again after clearly having no qualms about screwing over consumers”.

    The point isn’t that “prices going down = bad”, it’s “prices going down ≠ company won’t screw you over later”

    I wasn’t shitting on the price going down. I was shitting on Microsoft. Give it some time, they’ll attempt another price increase. GP has had five price changes in seven years, I wouldn’t bet on this one being the last.
