The first way they are going to really start hitting us below the belt us the people who decide to rent games. Let's say you decide your going to only rent your games from now on to save some money. You get a game your friend has been talking about and decide to play some multi with them, you got issues now, you have to pay to play even more. On top of that you don't own the game. So now you just paid to use a game that you don't own. Now you've just spent your hard earned money for what?????
Now here is something you don't hear about with passes, Nintendo. I'm serious, when was the last time you heard someone saying you have to have a pass to play a Nintendo game? I have yet to hear anyone complain about this. In fact Xbox, Pc, and Playstation are the only ones I've hard this about, if others have let me know. Raises some questions doesn't it? Why would one company and one company only not have these? The only reason I could think of is people often see Nintendo as a family company and you don't see alot of M games.
Even if you say I don't like online passes and I won't use them, then don't support them. Don't buy the game new, your only letting them have an advantage. If you don't need/want the pass buy used. Also don't tell me that dlc is outside content, because I've seen dlc that let's you unlock content in game. Even more so this comes out at the same time the game does.
New games really are going to kill the industry with all of the passes. At some point people may have enough and sales could come crashing down. Will it happen? That is really hard to say, but I can tell you one thing, if these companies continue they could be in trouble and other companies that don't charge could start seeing alot more revenue coming their way.
If people become sheep and willingly pay money for passes then they only have themselves to blame. Wether it's an elite pass or just a pass to get online content, it's still wrong. People should not be forced to spend hard earned dollars to play a game bought used Games cost to much as it is right now and that may never change. . The gaming community needs more people to stand up and let our voices be heard.
