We’re about to enter our LAST WEEK of our livestream fundraising experiment.

I wanted to prove that campaign fundraising can be fun and transparent instead of being reliant on rich people.

ICYMI, here’s how it’s been going:

I imagine the Xbox financial experts looked at it after gathering the data from the Gamepass experiment. Like, "Ok, it works... but..." They'll be able to offer top tier subs more. They'll add value back to the games in the store. @dmc-ryan.bsky.social @destinlegarie.bsky.social @jakebaldino.com

I only get core because I already bought most of the games on gamepass. I choose to buy a $20- $30 worth of games on sale every month instead of paying for gamepass. Thats my choice as a consumer. Xbox is giving consumers a plethora of options to fit their gaming lifestyle. @xbox.com

Love the game but how about more location DLC expansion maps? $29.99 full price and $15-$20 on sale. New activities and vehicles on Kodiak Islands and Puerto Rica/Virgin Islands? I hope you continue to support and add to this game for a long time? Gen 9 optimized Crew 2? 😎✌️💯

So you're telling me this isn't worth $1 per day?

They'll be back. Just throwing a little consumer fit. Understandable but $20 is way too cheap for the quality of games the service provides.... I remember paying $5 for 1 game, for 24 hours in the 90s. Gampass is $1/day for 400 games. Quit your crying lol @gamepass.xbox.com

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 9d

Meh, With COD its a $30 value now... $360/year gets you around $2000+ in games easily including Xbox first party, Activision blizzard, and 3rd party... its still a deal. I always thought it was too cheap tbh @gamepass.xbox.com

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 9d

I just want to play as many games as possible including past generations and Xbox is the best place for that. I think Nintendo and Sony have amazing products and software but Xbox is my home. It's the environment and ecosystem that I like being a part of. @xbox.com

I do not play games for the story

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 9d

Completely serious

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 9d

Kojima keeps the story interesting enough for me personally. Like Witcher 3 and GTA5 are really boring to me. Theyre obviously masterpieces but I'd genuinely rather play Far Cry and Assassins Creed because there's just better gameplay imo. Thats just me tho. I grew up on arcade games and not PC.

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 10d

Im happy with gameplay and graphics tbh

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 10d

RGG Studios too I guess. Yakuza has a ton of cut scenes but great story

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 10d

Absolutely 100%.... the guy is a genius creator. But I dont really pay attention to the cut scenes tbh. I absolutely love his vision and games.

Ricky Faber Jr @sicdog2021.bsky.social · 10d

That's why I watch movies.
