Because, the landscape has changed

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

And the mobile games

[Marluxia#4918 9]

Which worries me a little. I guess they aren't as bad atm as EA

EA trying to find a million ways to fit loot boxes in games but not call them lootboxes

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

They’re surprise mechanics remember

[KH-Queen 13]

EA needs to sit down

[Novayon 192]

Ah yes "we put unskippable ads in loading screens in NBA" EA

[KH-Queen 13]

OOF

Remember kids, Kinder eggs are just as bad as lootboxes

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I’d take ads over a million transactions

And games as a service can go die in a hole

[Marluxia#4918 9]

Well no I'm talking more about that time SE had plans to release games as a subscription service where they would update them gradually in parts

Idk I'd they still have that idea but I did not like the sound of it

[2 quid is good 2,209]

I thought you meant ffxv

[Marluxia#4918 9]

But FFXV did kind of do something like it.

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Yeah tabata described it as that iirc

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I’d dip it, since it could potentially make some of the older accessible

[Novayon 192]

The more time you can get a player to invest in a game, the more chance you have of getting them to spend money on microtransactions

Hence live service is the gold mine

[2 quid is good 2,209]

You don't need games as a service to resell your older games

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Just, put them on psn

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Oh you mean the active timed quests and events? None of them had microtransaxtioms

They were.. just that. Actively timed events

Ew a Chelsea supporter just liked my tweet

What was the name of that guy who did the presentation on how to exploit your consumer base in games?

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Disgostin

[KH-Queen 13]

Heh Chelsea

[2 quid is good 2,209]

It's filth
