I dont get the appeal of streaming games at all. As an optional feature I get it, as the main source for getting "your" videogames no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's gonna have a niche consumer base, primarily people who are only interested in renting games and live in major cities where Internet is not a problem. But I doubt it's gonna be any game changer. 😛 Edited October 15, 2019 by Alyxx Pun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already subbing to people on Patreon so I don't feel the need to add more twitch subs to the mix. I don't think my Twitch subs have even passed the 30 mark...Most of the content creators I watch, I am not subbed to them on more than one platform.

DylanC Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I subscribe to PS Plus for a year and then take a break for a few months before subbing again (I tend to play MP on my PS3/PS Vita in the this period). Saves me some money and also makes me appreciate it when I do have PS Plus. Win, win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomStars Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Hi I totally agree with you. I think console subscriptions cost a lot. And it's not always worth the money to buy them. But well I guess you have to do this if you want to play online ... The only advice I can give you is to try to look for deals, there's websites where community post deals from around the world and you can see if there is an offer. Personally I use g2troll.com because you can vote for deals so you can see only those which are the best and they give some points for voting that you can exchange them later for free giftcards (for example steam 5 euros). However there is more websites like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can;t teach the kids who watch youtube and social media and decide how to choose president and how to steer the culture ahead. I am sure stadia would get lot of sales with such kids.

My thoughts exactly - it's like renting exotic cars just to drive them for a day. What's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
