I like subscriptions, skins, and microtransactions. I wish they'd stop with all the skill based stuff though

You can't say that and keep it off the only subscription model that is making any waves. Honestly, if you want subscription options to take off, you need to ride the gamepass wave until it subsides and then build up from their when people are lost with all their games gone or on a subscription that is way too expensive.

The fact that some people are ok with, "subscriptions taking off" in this very post is troubling.

The future, where you own nothing, pay a subscription for everything.

Is Ubisoft just like…. Enjoying shooting itself in the foot? Haven’t they suffered enough scandals?
