Games as a Service are exhausting. We've been keeping up with this shit for a decade. Its tiring. I don't play games with seasons anymore.
First time I'm hearing the phrase "games as a service." What does that mean??
The more established term is a live service game: A game where development continues far beyond release with a trickle of content to keep players playing (and paying).
