Lmao yeah it's definitely small indie dev houses pushing this live service bullshit and not giant publishers who actually have the resources to maintain the servers for that sort of thing

Does No Man’s Sky count as an indie dev making a live service game? It’s basically a live service game, just not a greedy money sucking one.

But yeah, a vast majority live service games are coming from large corporations squeezing every last penny they can out of you.
