I want developers solely focused on working to make games as enjoyable as possible to boost their reputations so that I consider purchasing more games from them. Whether games cost $40, $60, $70 or $90 isn’t really a big issue to me, so long as the game is a worthwhile experience and worthy of my time.
With GAAS, the developer has dual motives and the game is compromised with the focus being to encourage the player to spend more money on add-ons or subscriptions they stretch out over the long term.
I reject GAAS and won’t ever spend a nickel on it. Plenty of other things I can do with my time if games go exclusively in that direction.
