Sonys lackluster third party exclusive that totally ripped off Splatoon (but hates when you mention it) is transitioning to free to play... It was highlighted in squares dev notes....

Do you think this will save Foamstars or do you think the lobbies are only managing Hardy playing solo matches from now on?

And it is still PS exclusive. Free to play isn't going to change anything.

People would rather pay $60 plus the Switch Online fee than play this ripoff. You get what you pay for…

It's kind of sad that people prefer to participate in F2P style monetization

Yeah... I tried the game and wanted to like it, but much like Concord and Destruction All Stars it was trying too hard and garbage... chasing trends and art styles instead of creating your own rarely works unless the game is exceptional.

On that note, I really hope Delta Force turns out well, because the last few Battlefield games have sucked ass.

Foamstars

Destruction All stars

Concord

Sony is 0-3 with their live service games. I suspect Fairgame$ will add to that.

I'd play it if they paid me.

Yeah, I don't get it. All the other awful hero shooters are free to play. Why did they think people would pay?

I want to give this game to Xbox fans, they deserve it. We're taking Doom and Indiana Jones from them, so it only fair to give em our shovelware so they don't bitch too much.

I really doubt even if this game was multiplat from the start it would sudenly be a success somehow

It reeked "Splatoon at home" from the start. Never seen sony fans hyping this, have you?

This theory that some games would suddenly make Square money if they werent exclusives is a fallacy. I'm pretty sure garbage like Foamstars or Forspoken would still fail hard had they been multiplat.

Blame Square horrible game greenlight decisions instead
