I honestly don't understand the mentality of people who think discussing the value proposition of a site they use should be beyond social norms. I mean, the value proposition of games is something discussed by GB crew and the community to no end. It rarely seems an issue until GB are the subject matter.
In so far as I've read, many simply pay to support the site (which is fine, it's how I see it which is why I don't pay sale price). There are others more concerned with the base asking price. (Who have largely been told to shut up by the previously mentioned group)
I'm personally happy to pay the higher rate in support of the site but can understand why some might feel they aren't getting the most bang for their buck. (And as someone who watches little other than GB can understand why someone might bring the matter up)
I can understand why people might get upset about it (fandom/parasocial relationships often have such an effect), but also find it difficult to stomache people being told to shut up or leave over something most are indifferent to when the focus is a different company (If the discussion were regarding the value proposition of Valheim/Returnal I expect most would be a bit more understanding).
What is the point of this thread lol. Don't subscribe if you don't want to, it's as simple as that.
I'd suspect the OP wants to subscribe but feels the value proposition is off.
