“The service will succeed or fail”. Not much of a hot take, even though I agree with his sentiment.

The point is the destructive potential of it succeeding.

The fuck is that sentence structure? This reeks of AI.

His full name is Arkane Cornelius Founder IV, but it was a bit long for the title.

I think the AI couldn’t differentiate between name and job title.

Its a bad deal, they want to force by making games exclusive except they just fired all of the game makers so uh…

Arkane founder and WolfEye president Raphael Colantonio has taken to socials to ask why no-one is talking about “the elephant in the room”, Xbox Game Pass.
because it isn’t that popular, i know like one person who has a subscription for it

I tried GamePass PC until a whole bunch of my favourite games disappeared. So I had to buy them in the end l, which, given steam’s usual deals, was about the same as keeping my subscription. It’s not a great deal for discerning customers and people will notice.

I had a free trial for PC and came to a similar conclusion. It’s a good way to try some games, but the value proposition isn’t great for long term unless you constantly play new games. Also the download speed was atrocious.

This. I never understood why people bothered with this mess in the first place, you need to be playing a new game like every two-three months to make this worth it/cheaper than just buying a $60 game. Which I think would be extremely hard for some games like RPGs that might take 100hrs to beat, especially if you have a life/obligations. I was busy with college, so Metaphor Re:fantazio took me like 5 months to beat, so a gamepass would be more expensive that buying the damn thing.
