PS5大漲價！EPIC大裁員！服務型遊戲的商業模式正在崩潰

If even a cash-printing machine like Fortnite is starting to slow down, how much credibility does the “live service miracle” really have left? Epic Games is raising V-Bucks prices while laying off thousands of employees. What this reveals isn’t a short-term fluctuation—it’s a fundamental breakdown in the logic of growth itself. At the same time, Sony’s all-in push into live service games keeps backfiring. From Concord to Marathon, and several yet-to-be-released projects already facing heavy backlash, the strategy is beginning to consume itself. A model once blindly copied by countless developers has now turned into a black hole—devouring resources and exhausting player patience. As development costs spiral out of control and player novelty continues to fade, this model is trapped in a vicious cycle of diminishing returns. In this video, we’ll break down why live service games have gone from being the “future of gaming” to an industry poison—and how they might drag down the entire Western gaming industry. 00:00 The Collapse of the Live Service Game Myth 02:12 Fortnite’s Collaborations Are Its Biggest Problem 05:41 Epic Is Using Fortnite to Cover Its Losses 09:06 The Failure of PS5 Live Service Games 10:17 The Fate of Sony’s Horizon: Hunter Gathering 12:03 The Real Reason Behind the PS5 Price Increase Again 15:40 Live Service Games Are a Cancer My X: @ChannelOLD9 https://x.com/ChannelOLD9
