oh well I will have to play Lies of P now. it was at the end of my backlog
shame about Yakuza games, wish all of them were permanent additions to game pass (same predicament for hitman trilogy)

 

[Quasicat]

Losing MLB The Show and not getting the next one sucks. Looks like I’ll go back to 22 which is the last one I bought for PS4.

Weird for Lies of P to leave with a new DLC on the horizon. You'd image having the base game available to more people would help boost the DLC sales

 

[saintjules]

Beware the Ides of March indeed.

No more heroes 3 sucks, no love loss there.

The Yakuza games have come and gone before, I expect them all to be back again in a few months.

Yakuza 6 has FPS Boost btw, the only console version that runs at 60fps, for anyone interested.

I think that’s smart for their part, if is not a standalone expansion, people like me are going to buy the base and the expansion.

And thats why i stop using gamepass, put 300 hours into Lies of P, ll have to buy It on steam and replay all over again since save files are locked to GP version.

I wanted to like it so bad cause I love 1 and 2…bought it day one on my switch and sold it like three hours later. Sucks is an understatement.

Are you sure about the save files being locked? I don't know about LoP in particular, but I do remember swapping saves between Steam and GP for Hades, so I don't think that's something ineherently to do with GP, might be game specific.



Maybe check this out.

Also, you got 300 "free" hours out of it. I played LoP on GP as well, and while it's sad to see it go, I'm don't exactly have much reason to complain. Though obviously it's a shame it's gone.

I think it's a dick move. Gamepass was one of the biggest factors that made the game popular. That's how I played it, and I was considering buying the dlc. This news discouraged me from doing so. Not liking the dlc trailer and already getting my soulslike fix with Lotf also played a big role.

MLB The Show 24- SpongeBob Squarepants Battle for Bikini Bottom

The weirdest cross-over.

Nahh, they are in the business to make money, now they are going to make the money they deserved for such a great game. I am going to buy it without a doubt, and this could be a great strategy for third parties games on gamepass.

 

[poodaddy]

OP says Yakuza 4/5 but it seems to be Yakuza 5/6, am I missing something or is it a typo?

 

[Punished Miku]

Yakuza, NMH, Solar Ash, Spongebob, Evil West all bought. Already beat Lies of P. Will buy in a few years.

 

[tTHANOSs]

Lol Lies of P dlc on the way and pretty sure you need to own the game to play the dlc. So if you want the dlc you will have to actually buy the game.

 

[CuNi]

Sucks with LoP.
Wanted to play the DLC but if it leaves GP, I'll wait till it's in humble bundle or available for like 5€.

Don't be so cheap for God sake, if you like the game support the devs… You already played the base game for cheap in GP.

Maybe. But as I see it they probably have a decent number of players who beat the game through gamepass, and might be interested in buying the DLC. Now they are asking those people to spend $20-30 to buy the base game they already beat, to then spend another $30 or so on the DLC. For anyone who played the game through gamepass the DLC just went from a $30-40 purchase (not sure they've announced the price) to a $60-70 one.

Totally worth it… At least for me. I don’t see any issue. Like i said, this could be a good strategy for third parties games on Gamepass. I thought the game was mediocre because some reactions by the press and some forums, I give a tried thanks to the gamepass and was my GOTY.

Why am I being cheap when I don't want to pay for content that I already finished?
I paid for game pass and I played it in game pass. I'm done with the base game.
I had interest in the DLC, but not that much interest that it justifies the price of the DLC and the base game on top.

They are a business that decided it wants to pull the game from game pass before the DLC drops, and I am absolutely in my right to say I like the game but not enough to pay for a game I already finished.

I'm not blaming them or saying I deserve to get the game for free.
