    I usually like to binge a game for a couple of days and then come back to them a few months later if I enjoy them, so paying a monthly fee for a game I don’t play every month doesn’t interest me, and needing to pay if I do want to play it sucks, and I’ll just play a different game instead. If they just let people play earlier versions of the game without needing jump through a bunch of hoops I wouldn’t mind so much. But I’m really glad their business model hasn’t caught on with the rest of the industry, I would hate to have to pay money every single time I wanted to play a game I already paid for previously.

      I get it, in fact, I think theyre putting a band-aid over their own problems when they create so much DLC with such narrow focuses and refuse to have it be just a free update, or to just release a “new” game instead. Like EU4 has been at least 4 different games at this point, looking up gameplay from release to today is insane and its also disgusting that you cant really even play the game as it was unless you just find a cracked version of the game still uploaded somewhere.
