@MeechFromPallet@Catscollecttcg@AndyCollectz My bad, you’re right, there is only one you. thanks big dawg, I was just wondering since you’ve helped me lock in so much stuff if you knew anyone on that side of the grand line.
@gundam_omega@Wario64 Brother I’ve already beaten this game on PS4, and on PS5. Not buying two Switch copies, plastic robot kit guy. Also Witch from Mercury sucks.
@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 Unless Microsoft or whoever is willing to pay to curate the service and take a hit on smaller games and experiences. Clearly, Microsoft wants everything to make money back, and not a small amount. The two ideas are so at odds with each other that things were doomed from the start
@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 As a consumer game pass is awesome! But its so unsustainable on the business side that we end up with what’s happening now: art house games and small developers get pushed out because there’s no room for small successes, and our favorite big games get ravaged my microtransactions
@Kasady69@AnkelBiter01@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 If the value of a game to you solely lies in its ability to become a commercial product, then we look at video games completely differently and nothing will change either of our minds. Have fun playing all the big shoot/ball games. That’s all we’re gonna end up with at this rate.
@AnkelBiter01@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 Ninja Theory was set up for failure because the metric for success ended up being sales profitability and they had to put their game on a subscription service on day 1. Are they going to hold Gears to that same metric when it underperforms too?
@AnkelBiter01@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 NT reported $5 million in profit after launching on PS5 despite coming out over a year later. Hellblade 2 also launched day and date on PC Game Pass. Remind me where Steam players are again?
@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 Game Pass cannibalized HB2’s sales, so when people say Microsoft transferred $30M to Ninja Theory and that the game was a commercial flop, it’s disingenuous. The game was made to bolster Game Pass’s library, and now Ninja Theory has to go because they didn’t sell copies?? Ok 👌
@TastyGumballs@MarnieGraves_@Wario64 What you’re ignoring is that HB2 launched day and date on Game Pass. For simplicity, let’s use round numbers. $30M revenue on a $60 game is about 500k copies sold. Don’t you think a AAA first party Microsoft game would’ve at least doubled that in sales if it weren’t on Game Pass?
@switchstock Interesting because I feel like this was one of the easier cops for me. I’ve hit on Ascended, Destined, Journey, and back in the day Evolving Skies and a bunch of others on PC 🤷
