BG3 Lead Developer Hits Back At Ubisoft Subscription Services: “Content Is King”

Larian Studios' CEO has responded following a statement from a Ubisoft executive on the future of game streaming.

Earlier this week, Philippe Tremblay, Ubisoft's director of subscriptions, made a comment in an interview stating how video game fans would need to get comfortable with not owning their games. Today, Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios' CEO responded, calmly explaining his opinion that 'direct from developer' is best. In a recent interview with GamesIndustry.biz, Philippe Tremblay discussed the introduction of the Classic service to the Ubisoft+ streaming platform.

But it’s going to be a lot harder to get good content if subscription becomes the dominant model and a select group gets to decide what goes to market and what not. Direct from developer to players is the way.' In his statement, Vincke is careful not to dismiss the fact that the future of gaming may well be a complete transition to streaming services. But he adds that 'content will always be king.' As in, the content of the games will always determine whether they succeed or not.
