>Turn game into a service
>Don't provide any service
What did they mean by this?
They would literally have made more money if they released Anthem as a single player adventure game with party and co-op support.
Turn game into a service

They probably wouldn't have since the game is about 10 hours long with no post game.

bioware is actually retarded
at one point anthem fanboys were literally begging for cosmetics to buy but they had none to sell

I just wanted to be a juggernaut in a mech suit, I'm glad I didn't buy it
What a waste of assets

I think you misunderstand what games as a service means. They're basically just giving you the option to play it via subscription. In this case origin premier.
They're not saying they'll update a game forever. You just don't need to pay the full retail price to play it when you want.
You can still buy the game whole and not pay a cent after outside of cash shop.

same feel here. that flying mage frame was the tits, dropping fireballs on shit from above. most actual fun I've had in a long time

My guess is since Anthem started development after ms3, it was originally a single player game with maybe co-op but with a much stronger emphasis on the story, then EA stepped in and told then to make a multiplayer game all the while ignoring other titles like Warframe and Destiny, add to that the instability of the dev team with devs being pulled to help on other projects all the time, you get this result.

That's literally not what GaaS means. Don't open your fag mouth if you have no fucking idea what you're talking about
Luis Edwards
Fucking this. A game where you can jump in your mech suit and fly around the world was my dream game.
