The business model isn't terrible, it makes money, but it is terrible for the consumer

    If the business model were successful, then the GaaS model wouldnt be full of bloated corpses of failed projects

    If you think that GaaS means that you have more failed projects, then look at how many normal games failed before launch.

    GaaS means you have ongoing expenses after launch in a way that normal games do not. The costs are higher, but they keep chasing the much larger reward that only a super small percentage will ever achieve.

    I am aggressively opposed to anything that is profitable at the expense of the consumer. That is a terrible business model.
