This is really true for some folk? I couldn't imagine letting the way I get my media affect the way I value it. Wow
No gamers just like to whine about shit. Can save them money and they'll still find a way to bitch about it. They all conveniently forgot that with the rise of subs (I swear to god if someone reply's with "Da FILm inDUStRy IS Not dA sAmE aS dA gAMMinG iNDusTRy... and neither is the music Industry, book industry, etc. THey DoNTt CoUNt bECaUsE I'm SMart an I SaiD so") in every industry means there's MORE, say it with me now, MORE not less, emphasis on content.
Did Netflix start making shitty shows because hbo and Disney and Hulu exist?? Fuck no, you think Hulu sat there while netflix dominates with there original content, Hell no, they start making shit like (think this was already there but you get what I mean) community and others, you have amazon with hand maidens tale and that new super hero show coming up. Disney is said to be putting movie budgets for there tv shows, fucking movie budgets. An all I hear is gamers claiming this we devalue there content like... how in the hell did you come up with that conclusion??
Guess what, if every pub does decide to have a sub service than you think they'll all exist willy nilly to each other and never have to battle for consumer interest, LMAO. There not going to be like ayo gamer sub to my service because we make shitty games and you should want to, that's not how that works, they won't be battling with sub prices, they won't be battling saying my net codes better, it'll be about the GAMES. POINT BLANK PERIOD. Goddamn, I'm losing brain cells listen to some of y'all doom theory's, I'm not a business major but I study digital media so I know a bit on the ethics of fighting for consumer interest, and I can tell
You now, you'd WANT these pubs to all come out with a sub service because then as consumers we get to decided which ones are good and bad, we get to dictate what content we want to see by our wallets.
Also as a bonus food for thought, this might be there only way to kill MTX's. Whenever (because this will happen) activision drops there service they'll be competing with games from gamepass and ea access, now with gamepass being a thing MS is dropping MTX's and dlc all together in favor for subs, gears 5, halo 5, SoT, State of decay somewhat as well, COD might have people excited to get a sub service but the magical thing about subs vs cable packages is you get to CHOOSE who to sub to, if your getting the new halo infinite with no dlc and such vs cod having to pay for every map pack on top of paying a sub, bet your ass the gamepass sub base will be much much higher than activisions. They'd rather have your guaranteed sub every month, on top of the $60 purchases others like OP will do. Because I'll tell you know now, there will never be a time when devs stop making great quality content to attract an audience, thinking otherwise is just straight up idiotic.
