01 PART
How live service game
got so popular?
 #1
The idea of games as a service began with the
introduction of massively multiplayer online games
(MMOs) like RuneScape and World of Warcraft, where
the game's subscription model approach assured
continued revenues to the developer and publisher to
create new content.

#2
Games like Dota 2, League of Legends, and
Fortnite make it popular and attract other
video game companies
02 PART
Why live service game is
bad?
#4 #1 There is no final, complete version of a live service
game. As they are ever changing. Content and
features are added, removed and changed on short
The eventual abandonment notice
It is only a question of when, not if a life service
game gets abandoned by its developer. So games
preservation is impossible. They sometimes operate
on live support for a while, but the servers are
always shut down eventually. This might even be
illegal for games that you purchased as retail, and #2
not just free to play. But that never stops them, it's
not like anyone is going to sue a company worth They try to organize your time
billions for loosing access to a $60 game. for you
Live service games demand the
player to log in at specific
intervals, to get access to some
benefits. They also force them
to play certain content within a
specified time frame.
They are not a fair transparent transaction
#3 When you buy a regular game you see exactly what you get for your money. With live service
games it is not clear. Whether you get your money's worth out of that season's pass is anyone's
guess. Which basically makes it a gamble. You gamble on getting content that's worth your while.
