    The only game subscription I am comfortable with are things like GamePass and PS+ Premium. At least for now it’s been a pretty good value. If they start jacking up prices and cutting down on releases, that would certainly change things. PS+ already went up by $60/year.

      so your comfortable with the main ones then. i’m sure you won’t mind the slow price increases like you just talked about, until it’s suddenly too much - but they stopped releasing games outside of subscription services so you just have to live with it.

      you know, like every subscription model has worked so far.

        Exactly, it’ll go just the same as Netflix did. They’re almost certainly selling at a loss to corner the market

          you think that won’t happen? even though it has happened with every other streaming service?

            Other than original, exclusive programming, I can still buy most individual movies and shows without needing to subscribe to anything, so no. It hasn’t even happened with streaming services.

              Other than the movies and TV shows you can’t buy, I can still buy these other movies. I’m sure this trend will stop here and won’t continue.
