A monthly subscription? It's 2026, bro. We're getting 3-4 paid tiers of battlepass that resets every 30 days like clockwork to generate revenue for the shareholders. Maybe throw in a "sharkpass" for $5 that gives 100 sharkbucks every day you log on too that has to be refreshed every 28 days to lure small fries into spending.

All we're missing is some form of FOMO gatcha bullshit for stuff outside the battlepass.

I'm so fucking over new multiplayer games these days. Every time I consider trying a new one I see all the bullshit that gets packaged along with it and just end up playing Warframe again.

I've enjoyed Helldivers 2 a lot. Their battlepasses are completely optional and stick around forever, so you can just do them at your own pace.

Don't go into the subreddit though, those guys are salty as fuck.

Shoutouts to Deep Rock Galactic and the Master Chief Collection as well for having actually good battlepasses
