I am getting a gut feeling this is butterfly effect from tthe recent Nintendo Switch 2 announcement.
T2, EA, WB games, nd Ubisoft are definitely gonna jump in on this in near future. Probably most of the Western publishers will follow afterwards
The only ones I think might take the longest are Devolver Digital, CD Projekt Red, focus entertainment, and 505 games. The publishers in Asian region will also probably take the longest to change, save for Nintendo.
Sony will probably take time but will cave in eventually; Actually, probably much faster than the third-party publishers.
....Suddenly, sailing the "high seas" and using G2A and their stolen keys doesn't feel so bad anymore.

We all sell this coming. I'll continue not buying a majority of their shit. Especially when there are plenty of games that are much cheaper, respects people's time, and have much more replay value.
New price tag complements their Game Pass push. Why pay 80 bucks for one game when you can pay... less for a bunch of games?
Thankfully I can count the number of Microsoft games I give a shit about on a single hand.

This is probably the business move. They struggle with Game pass retention and keeping people subbed. I know I've personally redeemed like 6 "free months" simply with rotating e-mails. But what they want is people to sub and stick, if they make buying games unappealing, then that would help keep people in the Game Pass system for longer in theory.
At the very least, with physical copies, you can keep the games. Unless it's a multiplayer-focused game which the server will shut down in the future.
But for digital games we are only buying the license! $80 for something that may or may not be erased on your digital platform. If it's just storefront removal I am fine with it, but removing from user library is such a shitty move

Exactly. You're essentially paying $60-80 for nothing or limited time in digital stores. It's always been like this and i've been sick of it. Most games don't stay on there forever. I will give GOG (especially these people)and Steam huge credit for letting people keep their digital copies of the game even if it's no longer available on their store.
Welp.
