KnackChap Posted August 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 Streaming is definitely the future 5-10 years down the line. Subscription is not, atleast for big ticket AAA titles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscription w streaming can be viable if they charge some big bucks amount, like $60 current game streaming all is only for increasing install base, not actually making paisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarbonCore Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 You already got subs for EA and Ubi that includes everything day one, they're just smart enough to not put them on consoles because they know where the big bucks come from.

Seems like gaming will be like netflix/prime too. Subscribe to your favourite publisher's and play what they offer . And honestly it's going to be costlier than traditional gaming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS Fan Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Is it true that Geforce Now allowed players to play any Steam games u owned through streaming but devs didnt like it and they pulled out of it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I've read. I don't think it was the devs who pulled out but rather publishers (atleast for AAA).

But its definitely not because of Gamepass. Only Sony is involved in anti consumer practices. MS? Pfft. No way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Devs have no say once the game is completed. Publishers make all the choices. nVidia lost publishers because they didn't get permission and allowed people to stream Steam games directly. Some of them have returned and some haven't. Quote We may see larger publishers like Activision or Capcom, which pulled its games in December, trying to work out deals where they receive a chunk of the $5 per month Nvidia charges founders, or otherwise change the terms of the deal because GFN is no longer a free beta.

Mysteryman Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 My biggest concern is the pricing of new games. Though it remains unchanged since PS3 gen for the US market at $60 and may continue next gen for some developers. But for India, it has jumped from 2.5k to 4K thanks to the weakening rupee. Any higher and demand will fall even further. Subscription and Gamepass may get more popular in India to get access to the latest games.

Your concern is valid, games have indeed become very expensive., especially in this generation. Buying used, reselling, sharing digital with close friends are the only options. Gamepass has long way to go, library is not very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it jumps 70$ it will easily be 4500-5000 here which is Waaaaay too expensive. Only thing you can do is buy-play-sell. 16 hours ago, Right said: Gamepass has long way to go, library is not very strong. Playstation should come something similar to gamepass with day 1 one access to all games. that might be something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely, they will lose a lot of money because they have too many first-party titles, which sell quite well. If they do equivalent of Gamepass, that will be mic-drop moment in gaming.

Money hat is to get the early gen advantage, to make it harder for MS to fight back. Having a GP like Langar of games for $1 needs lots of money, like Ambani or MS type money, no way Sony will do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
