It was already too expensive to begin with. No way they will get serious subscriber growth with these numbers.
I know Michael Pachter is quite hated around the internet, but I think he is totally right in saying they need a $5 ad-supported tier and the premium/ultimate shouldn't cost more than $15. At maximum they should match Netflix pricing.

If they really want to cater to a giant 100m+ subscriber base, they are not competing with PlayStation or Nintendo, they are competing against Netflix, Prime, Hulu and whatever for people's time. And no way average Joe will shell out that kind of money for gaming, let alone this pricing totally drives out people in less wealthy countries.

Its only fine if there is a game you want to play and have the time to finish within that month. But ts worth taking into consideration that you have to purchase potential dlc's as you can't just creamapi them like you can for a steam game. Also the fact that multiple games have encrypted saves that cannot be transfered to steam.

Excellent news!

Fucking sheep consumers deserve to be stripped of even more time and money.

Maybe one day, after eating so much shit, they'll finally wake up...

Makes it much easier to just wait for sales. So much backlog anyway.

Indeed, fleece them for every cent i say.

Gamers are complicit in everything that's wrong with gaming and this is exactly what they deserve.

Hats off to microsoft though, charge obscene prices for triple a games, push everyone to gamepass then boom... Laughing
