I subscribed for a year or so, other than the horrible client it was good. But there are just too many games to play and not enough time, a good problem to have but still. I also felt like I didn’t appreciate the games as much when I got them for “free.”
I started getting it for $1 per month by canceling and then resubscribing, now you can’t do that and I just don’t bother to subscribe at all.
Now with just 14 days for a $1 trial it’s an even worse deal. This is why I don’t think MS should be allowed to buy up all these game companies. Try contacting MS for support. If you can’t get through to someone in less than 10 minutes then they shouldn’t be buying any more companies. That should be the test for any company acquiring other companies. If they can’t serve the customers they have, how are more customers going to help?
Right… It’s the audience’s fault and not the show runners who outright refused to follow the books and games leading to the star of the show leaving. 🙄
I loved the setting of Origins but got burnt out doing all the tedious bits they sprinkled all over the maps that didn’t contribute to the story in ant way and was mostly the same over and over again.
And yes, I know I could skip stuff but I wanted to experience the full hame too… so… yeah.
I honestly don't know what a game can do to survive as a live service nowadays. Japanese live services games in particular are just DOA instantly, but even giants like Valve (Artifact) and Blizzard (OW2) are failing at this. Can't charge money upfront because no one would try the game. Can't go F2P with paid cosmetics/characters because people will complain about microtransactions (because these game companies are charities, right?). Can't change the game too much in updates, can't have too few updates. Seems like we are just going to be stuck with the same handful of old live service games for the rest of eternity.
