Mike Rose, founder of independent publisher No More Robots, explains why he's such a vocal proponent of Microsoft's subscription service.
Supergiant Games' Studio Director, Amir Rao, has said that he's worried about some unbalanced boons in-game, with nerfs coming soon.
Super Mario 64 and Diddy Kong Racing are just the beginning.

The dude just loves Microsoft

It doesn't because Microsoft pays for the potential lost copies.
Developers are not at a lost as they are compensated in fact they benefit more from being seen on gamepass as more gamers access them. The game is also available to buy if the player wants to.
Why is it so hard to understand?
Lol MS themselves admitted GamePass cannibalizes sales.
It's attractive for indies for obvious reasons, or live service games.
Anything that is big budget and doesn't have mtx gamepass is not attractive an attractive service until later in that games life.
Thats why u always hear smaller devs come out saying it's great but never the big boys.
Simple economics really gamepass isn't great for big budget games but absolutely fantastic for Indies.
Not sure why people struggle to grasp this or use what indie devs says and apply that to big budget games when different things all together.
It's like kids learned a new word and use it constantly! If you're a "journalist". Why would most use "cannibalize"? Can't think for yourselves? If you feel GP HURTS GAME SALES, KILLS SALES OF GAMES, REDUCES GAME SALES, CUTS PROFITS FROM PUBLISHER'S. NO, it's like a toddler learned a NEW Word!
GP can be a sustainable option. So can PS+! Which introduced me to ton of games!
I absolutely love my PS5, but damn! Microsoft is now The walking dead!
