I understand all this but a game not working for the service is somehow a negative for the service? just don’t launch the game on the service simple as that haha. I agree not every game will fit the game pass mold but I don’t think that’s a negative to the service at all, it’s just how it is.
The real and honest negatives I think are around indies and the have and have nots, being if you aren’t in game pass it might be hard for your game to be noticed. But we still don’t know if this is fully true or not, I still think even with game pass that if you make a good game, indie, AA, AAA people will buy/rent or do whatever they need to play it.
There are so many games that come out of no where before and after game pass so I don’t know how true this can be.
Yeah it can also being the whole doubt of something being too good to be true, there HAS to be a catch. Like how people keep saying (included in the podcast) that we can still buy games FOR NOW as if Microsoft has some incentive to stop selling games?? if anything selling games makes more money than game pass lol, that would be a bad thing.
A sale = guranteed revenue, I know this doesn’t happen a lot but someone could easily sign up for 1 month play the game and cancel and they’ll only make $10
