The people buying MS games on Steam are obviously not GP subscribers. And once they are GP subscribers they will stop buying those games on Steam. Unless I am missing the logic of having the game on GP and also buying on Steam. Don’t think Steam loyalty is that strong. People like adding fav. games to their library. Those who only wanna play a halo or fallout or ES are just gonna buy it instead of year long subs. These are long a*s games which people play for years.

My base PS4 is shite as it only can run exclusives, for other games it's useless (tried some Destiny 2 on PS4 and it literally takes 10 seconds to load my inventory not to mention the gameplay) If I want to I might keep on using my current rig this entire generation and it still would suffice me. As Joe said the initial build will be costly but later it'll give out better value. Its like saying - Buy a penthouse for 1 crores that will serve you and your family life long but problem is 1 crore laaun khaha se Consoles is not penthouse. Its your regular good quality apartment that will serve you for long time but you will not get penthouse experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally was thinking about this as I slept this is Sony’s nightmare to go head on with M$ now instead of team Xbox Phill is Head of all MS entertainment and devices. There is no way Satya will sign the cheque without consulting Phill and his team after all his team handles Xbox Edited September 22, 2020 by WhiteWolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people buying MS games on Steam are obviously not GP subscribers. And once they are GP subscribers they will stop buying those games on Steam. Unless I am missing the logic of having the game on GP and also buying on Steam. Don’t think Steam loyalty is that strong. Not necessarily. GP is similar to "Renting Games" and once the $1/50 Rs promotion is over - the rent is going to be substantially more expensive. Look at it this way - you have 1-2 games you want to play on GP. GP will cost you around 600 Rs per month (After offers and Price Increase). The 2 games meanwhile are on Steam for something like 1200 Rs each (Regional Price) and will come down even less on sales. You get to keep them permanently. It's also something you play regularly (like Gears MP/Forza/An SP game that you keep playing because you like it etc.) So which will you choose? You might just try it on GP at launch and then buy on Steam when price is right. Heck, currently Metro Gold Edition is around 500 Rs on Steam (Permanent Ownership), so even if people have played it or have the Gamepass Subsription live - they can just buy it. Not to mention, from what I've seen, the normal Gamepass rarely gives DLCs (Only DLCs I've seen are Gears Ultimate with GP Ultimate, don't think I've seen any other DLC on GP) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keano Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 57 minutes ago, HundredProofSam said: From the looks of it, Bethesda will continue to operate as a publisher under Microsoft. So whatever distribution deals they have around the world will likely continue and local pricing will be decided accordingly. Microsoft won't want to cut off those revenues after spending 7.5 billion. Games Pass is the centre of their business, but they will 100% have to increase the subscription price. Looking at the trends in the video subscription services, growth will slow, especially once you've tapped into your core audience, and more so once you raise the subscription price. At 15 million subscribers, even assuming that each of these is subscribing to GP Ultimate for a full year, that's $180 per subscriber. That's $2.7 billion in revenue per year. That's peanuts. But then look at the costs of Game Pass. By adding all first party and Bethesda games to Game Pass they are losing out on sales of those games. There is surely also money being paid to EA for having EA Access included in the subscription. On top of that, there is money being paid out for most third party and indie games on the platform. Plus there are costs connected to streaming and multiplayer services. All that cost for a $2.7 billion revenue (at best). Their Steam revenues are being canabalised by Game Pass. They will earn from Nintendo and Sony, and they may be getting a cut from in-game transactions, but Game Pass will need to pay for itself eventually and the only way they can do that is upping the subscription price. MTX sales from the games they are offering for free in GPU will end up making a good amount of money for MS. The way the games are made this gen, a lot of emphasis has been on selling MTX. Players in the first world countries already buy a ton of MTX. With them not paying an upfront $60 for a game, they will be more willing to buy a costume dlc for $2-$5.
