Seems pretty obvious to me that if this passes, big game companies will either re-label all new releases as “subscriptions” and/or just never make a single-player game again. And mostly nothing will change. If you don’t like companies like this, don’t buy their games. There’s literally thousands of indie game companies that don’t abuse their users.
> don’t buy their games
Not a solution. Other people will buy them and outvote you with their wallets. This has already happened. People did buy The Crew, and I doubt that most of them realized that it will be closed 10 years later.
What you just described is a massive improvement over the status quo.
Today, I have no idea when the game I just purchased is going to be disabled.
>and/or just never make a single-player game again
plenty of companies making single player games now would be fine.
