minus-square@NocturnalMorninglink25•5 months agoI remember the days when games were 30 dollars, had a couch co-op mode, and a full single player campaign made by a team of just a few people. Now we require in-game ads to sustain the development cost of the games? Somethings wrong with AAA if that’s the case.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink13•5 months agoI don’t think there’s any claim that it’s to sustain the dev costs. This is a "dear shareholders, prep your cocks for a tuggin’ " pitch. I’d expect more paid ads in the likes of Madden and not-FIFA.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•5 months agoCorporations ruin everything. I’ll be trying my hardest not to buy games from any major corporation. The indie devs have been nailing it lately anyway
