Please for the love of god business majors need to stop pushing games as a service business models on game devs. There are only a handful of those that ever work and you think you will be one, the profane ego on you

TBH saying that “believing THEY can do it” can be said about most game developers regardless of size or business model. I wouldn’t say it’s about ego, but rather, about dreaming that maybe they are able to achieve the impossible. Reality is that gamedev is hard, being super successful, even more.

when games like zenless can make 100 mil in a year it's hard to tell suits otherwise unfortunately. i agree though

At the very least, live service games should be FREE.

But what do you mean! There's a whole audience of Modern Gamers™ just itching for a new live service game!!

With late stage capitalism what gets made is not the best product but the product thay makes most money.

And the games where a live service model works and make sense typically don't work any other way. :P

It’s the mmo rush all over again

You know they will blame the devs for the failure too, and that's the most fucked up part

I wish it was business majors, maybe the decisions would actually be sounder 😂

The idea of a game that infinitely prints money through micro transaction is too appealing to them, they're foaming at the mouth because of it
