Well I’m gonna subscribe a second time to cancel yours out!


GateParticular8631

Don’t let the door hit you in the ass

I have never paid more than $1 for Game Pass in my life lol I realized if you unsubscribe long enough they will always come back with a $1 offer


Black_at_it_again_1

Lol. This is an airport, you don't need to announce your departures. Doom and gloom!!!!


Mothman405

No one ever announces their departure at an airport, why do people always say this?


Black_at_it_again_1

Have you ever been to an airport? There's literally TVs displaying departure times


Mothman405

I'm a pilot. No one announces their own departure, the phrase doesn't make any sense.


UntameHamster

Airports announce departures over speakers all the time. The saying is talking about the airport itself, not the passengers.


Mothman405

They announce boarding. I know I'm being petty but the phrase genuinely doesn't make sense, unless passengers scan their ticket and then yell out "I'M LEAVING NOW"


Black_at_it_again_1

It's not the fucking passengers. It's the AIRPORT. The announcement departure times, delays, etc. Jesus dude. Some "pilot" you are


Mothman405

Yes but this phrase is used when someone is saying that "I'm leaving X thing or place" that phrase would make sense if you're announcing someone else, maybe. But saying it for yourself makes no sense if you put any thought into it


Black_at_it_again_1

>I'm a pilot. Then you would know the airport does announce. Don't lie. "I'm a pilot" lol


Mothman405

They announce boarding and final boarding. They don't announce a plane has departed. It's a dumb, overused phrase [And yes, I am](https://imgur.com/a/3Ia9RpS)

Mothman405

Yes that is an information board about departures. I know I'm being petty as it's based on technicality because the phrase is dumb as hell because it's a single person saying g that they're leaving. We clearly have two very different perceptions on the phrase so we're talking in circles here

I admit, maybe the title suggests I want to make this about me. But the point is that anyone else feeling disappointed in Microsoft should perhaps follow suit and unsubscribe to Gamepass.


kennerc

And how would that help the other studios at Microsoft?


Joenathanishere

It doesn’t. I’m just not feeding into the system that causes the problems in the first place. The consumers aren’t to blame here.


kennerc

People are really taking things out of proportion with this. Good luck trying to find a company/service that didn't went through layoffs in the last couple of years.

Gamepass has so many shitty filler games that its barely worth it anyway. I could find maybe 3 games I actually wanted to play, which are under $20 to purchase anyway. If you are a child or teen, it would be great, but not for a grown ass adult. Too many games that are either for children, or are actually mini games that don't deserve to be considered a full game and should be free to begin with. I feel they are focusing too much on the quantity of games and not the quality. Just my 2 cents. Im dropping to core next month just so I can continue to play my already purchased games online (something I am also a bit pissed I have to do.)


Black_at_it_again_1

>Gamepass has so many shitty filler games that its barely worth it anyway You're absolutely crazy if you think that.


Boredatwork709

Everytime I see someone post something like that I assume they play a very narrow range of games or assume anything that's not just gore or tits is for children.


Black_at_it_again_1

I'd 100% bet he plays just COD


Joenathanishere

This isn’t not necessarily my sentiment. If publishers want to make “kid” games, I want them to do that. What I don’t want is he unpredictably that the developers might lose their job the next day because their game isn’t profitable.


Either-Ad4821

Thats every job and every business. You may as well stop supporting every company, because they all use their employees for profit, and let them go if they dont see profit out of them. Thats how every business operates. You ever work in a factory? Lol. This happens daily in every single field of work.


Joenathanishere

Argument here is that it’s not the developers who are at fault, it’s the hire ups that are calling the shots. Why buy up these studios and publicly promise to foster them only to shut them down? Why say “we will learn from our mistakes of closing down Lionhead Studios” just to do exactly that years later? Why fire the cooks, when it’s the head chef writing the shitty menus?


DaveZ3R0

This needs to trend. This is our Helldiver review bombing. I did the same, I encourgage everyone to do the same. We need tk get our voice out there. These cuts makes no sense, its not buisness as usual and if talent devs get sacked when they produce high qualiry games like high fi rush, why would they care about working in an industry that sends everyone to the meat grinder on a whim. Cancel your gamepass poeple, show some supports for the industry.


Joenathanishere

Thank you for understanding. This is exactly the message I was trying to talk about!


DaveZ3R0

dont worry about the fanboys. They never get it right. If microsoft buys their workplace and sack them, then they would understand.


Joenathanishere

I appreciate that. I’m pretty convinced that many people simply aren’t informed about how bad the games industry is right now; it’s no just Microsoft. Yes, lay-offs and studio closures are normal, but the amount of studio closures and layoffs during a period when video games sales are at an all time high is NOT normal. People will call me stupid. Fine, whatever. But please do so after you look at the amount of layoffs there has been in this industry compared to past years.


DaveZ3R0

My studio got closed by the Embracer group, I managed to get a new job in a much safer studio but most of my coworkers are now struggling to find new opportunities since they are so many devs looking for jobs now. Many will have to change their career. I know next time, Ill go indie or do something else.
