Bedtime thought but... One of the talking points in PC vs Console is that multiplayer is free on PC. To me it's kind of wild that... that hasn´t changed? Like, I'd say that from a technical standpoint it would be kinda feasible to force game services to handshake with an online service for a paid subscription, right? God forbid, but something like a Steam online pass for your steam games, or a Epic (!?) thing? I don´t like that, let it be known, but this is still oneof those lines that theyre absolutely going to cross, isnt it?

    @leggy2fast@meow.social nah i feel like the reason that hasnt really picked up on pc as much as on consoles is that consoles are easier to do that since they run on a restricted “operating system” whereas in PCs if anyone gets too upset with a game they can always also just pirate it.
