The director of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Baldur's Gate 3 has discussed the possibility of ౠܫtheir games heading to subscription services, sharing: "Direct from developer to players is the way."
Following reports that a Ubisoft exec said for subscriptions to take off, Swen Vincke - the director of everyone's current favorite RPG aꦅnd head of its developer Larian Studios - shared his thoughts on the future of video game distribution earlier today, revealing: "You won’t find our games on a subscription service."
"Whatever the future of games looks like, content will always be king," Vincke says to his Twitter following. "But it’s going to be a lot harder to get good content if subscription becomes the dominant model and a select group gets to decide what goes to market and what not," the Larian Studios fou𒈔nder explains. "Direct from developer to players is the way."

In a series of follow-up tweets, Vincke goes into more deta💧il about this adding: "Getting a board to ok a project fueled by idealism is almost impossible and idealism nee🐎ds room to exist, even if it can lead to disaster. Subscription models will always end up being cost/benefit analysis exercises intended to maximize profit."
"There is nothing wrong with that," the developer adds, "but it may not become a monopoly of subscription services." Vincke con✅tinues by explaining how developers are already dependent on a select group of digital distribution platforms and discoverability, which is "brutal" enough, but if all those platforms switch to a subscription-based model: "It&🅺rsquo;ll become savage."
🐼TLDR ; you won’t find our games on a subscription service even if I respect that for many developers it presents an opportunity to make their game. I don’t have an issue with that. I just want to make sure the other ecosystem doesn’t die because it’s valuable.
Vincke finishes the thread by saying: "In such a world by definition, the preference of the subscription service will determine what games get made. Trust me - you really don’t want that." He then reveals that you won't find Larian's games on a subscription service, "even if I respect that for many developers it presents an opportunity to make their game," and that's because the develo🔴per💜 wants to make sure the other "valuable" ecosystem doesn't die.
If that wasn't clear enough, Vincke has also said Baldur's Gate 3 is never coming to Xbox Game Pass as 🍎"there's a fair price to be paid" for "⛄a big game" like this.

After studying Film﷽ Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
