Another game I simply won't need to buy. Neat. I guess some publishers just don't like selling games or something.

This, please. We need more votes? EU only

It's dead, Jim.

Stop buying games made by these companies. Petition won't do shit. Take their money away, stop buying them

I wish that has worked over the last decade. It didn't. We need a governing body to stand up and represent us. That's what they're for. And yes I know it won't be exactly as written. Read the darn thing

It's worked for me, these games don't die in my eyes because they don't exist.

Sticking your head in the sand is a comfort, I suppose

Hot take: If its a free to play online multiplayer game, its not very upsetting. Yeah, fans want another skate in the vein of the trilogy and it sucks we wont get that... But if i dont have to buy this game then idc if it will hit a premature death when it stops being supported. Yeah its a waste of development resources and i wish online-only games didnt exist for the sake of preservation, but i wont be upset if i get to play this game and dont have to pay a dime. Im not entirely sure itll be ftp though, so this take can be completely void.

Why would they stop? Cause you asked? Sadly this online crap is what’s making money and game companies are and have always been about money, all of them without exception

>Another game I simply won't need to buy I mean, that would be the case whether it was online-only or not; it's a free-to-play game

Ah, thanks. That was entirely unclear from this article.

Yeah, they mention it obliquely at the end, but it really should be more obviously stated. Presumably they assume anyone reading the article is already familiar with the game

they don't like to sell games, they like to sell in-game "content" now!

I guess I'll play SKATE on RPCS3.

If its FTP and all mechanics beyond cosmetics can be accessed with grinding (skate-pun... nice) rather than passes and subscriptions then a great many people need to STFU. Mechwarrior Online is FTP and Online only, has been since 2013 when it was released, still has players, still gets updates and still makes money without p2w shenanigans. Ive got 3600 hours logged, I still play regularly. Sometimes I buy some shit in game because I'm a grownup with disposable income and 3600 hours worth of entertainment is worth a few bucks.

It's so weird how you can tell someone is from the US based on the propaganda they are parroting. Stop believing your coroporate overlords when they keep telling you that petitions, non-violent protests, boycotts, the UN, etc. doesn't work. They do, that's why they tell you they don't. Because then you'd actually make oligarchs accountable.

Free online multiplayer game doesn't have an offline mode? How bizarre.

I kinda agree, but generally find F2P games would have been better as a paid game without the premium shop.
