Kane99 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Source - https://www.gamesindustry.biz/report-95-of-studios-are-working-on-or-aim-to-release-a-live-service-game Not good news if true. It's being reported that 95% of video game studios are working on live service games with others showing interest in it. Live service is a genre I am iffy about. I don't mind Fortnite, but I don't want every new game to be a live service game. I already have a sour taste in my moth from the recent Suicide Squad game, and I haven't even played it yet. What do you think about live service games coming out more often? Are you worried it's going to hurt gaming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGen98 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I completely agree, I think live-only or live-centric games are good for certain things, but not every single game. Games need a lifespan beyond their servers, I still go back and play a lot of old games that don't have life services anymore, and they're still perfect, playable, fantastic games. No game should be limited to a lifespan just because the servers are switched off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 More games for me not to play then. I DESPISE Live-service games and wish they would all just burn. This is one of the most cancerous genres in gaming outside of the cesspool that is mobile gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
