Arkane Studios founder calls Game Pass "unsustainable model"

➡️

Raphael Colantonio goes on to say it is "damaging the industry" and subsidized by Microsoft's 'infinite money', but "at some point reality has to hit":

"[...]the maths don't work for [Game Pass], it only works because [Microsoft] injects billions into it to make it a good deal for the players...for now". 

Larian Studios publishing director Michael Douse also shared the "most vocal concern" from within his own network was: "What happens when all that money runs out?"

Douse said this was "one of the main economic reasons people I know haven't shifted to its business model", stating "the infinite money thing never made any sense", and preferring "Sony's 'lifecycle management'" way of doing things (putting older catalogue games on PS Plus).
