    Not too surprised tbh.

    But what will happen to the console market in 10 years? Does it shift to a subscription model and you choose games via your TV and everything is streamed?

    But I’m glad CoD will still be around - at least some constant I can rely on haha

      Likely the same thing that has happened to every other industry.

      • Someone comes out with a disruptive low cost subscription model, consumers like it because it’s so low cost and anything that isn’t on it they can still buy.
      • People buy less, content producers have to move to the same subscription model to survive.
      • The low cost of the subscription model can’t pay for all the content that is normally made by that industry, creatives can’t find backing to create content anymore, creative struggle to get paid between there being less money and corporate greed snatching what is left
      • Quality drops, output drops, no one is happy.
