Christofer Sundberg, creative director and founder of Avalanche Studios, believes that microtransactions and subscriptions will be the norm for next-gen gaming. Sundberg recently took to Twitter to discuss his opinion.
He Tweeted saying, “Micro-Transactions, subscriptions and other biz models will be the next generation of games. It is that simple.” Answering Eurogamer’s Wesley Yin-Poole, he added, “F2P has become a label for low quality unfortunately, but basically that’s where we’re heading.”
In a later tweet he acknowledged that not everyone will do it right, “There will be f-ups for sure. Hopefully we can lower the initial price-piont and build the game with the community instead.”
