    Duh?

    You nerds were so preoccupied with screeching at Microsoft you all mostly missed 2-3 years worth of games for pennies on the dollar.

    For years you could buy up to 3 years of game pass ultimate for about $2 a month and I got literally over 3k worth of games at launch for basically free/pennies. You’d have to be a moron to not jump on it.

    Of course the count was going to go down. That was the strategy. It was never sustainable.

      I don’t know why you’re downvoted, Netflix showed that this subscription model was going to be the best deal in gaming for a good while, before the company started wanting to get their money back. As a very poor person, I got to try and play at least a hundred games since I picked up a series X late 2020.

        Because most Lemmy users react based on how they feel about an idea and how it should work. It doesn’t matter if you’re describing reality. If it sounds like something they don’t like they get riled up despite the reality.
