General Let’s discuss Apple Arcade?

Drak7e · November 24, 2019

Hey guys and gals,

So, Apple Arcade is here, and with it some great games. In particular, I got disappointed that Cat Quest II couldn’t be downloaded independent from a subscription. I just wanted this one game. Not to pay a monthly fee!

So, what is the truth behind Arcade? We won’t be having any of those titles in community’s app, for instance? Is it even possible to do so? What are your thoughts?

My case is of someone who likes to play now and then, not having dozens of games and so on. If I pay a subscription and only play this ONE game, if I spend 3 or 4 months playing it, then I’d have paid all that money for ”one game”, really. It just doesn’t make sense for ME.

Another thing, also, is the possibility of hacking an Arcade game. Is it possible? Is a great part of those games kept online in some way, like levels being downloaded as you go? Sorry, I haven’t even gotten into the free trial month, ‘cause I know I won’t pay for it and don’t wanna get hooked then disappointed at the end of the free month.

So, what are your thoughts?

Honestly, I would think it would be possible to cheat in an Apple Arcade game. Maybe using a proxy server would work.

On the other hand, I don’t think it’s worth it. If you’re going to pay to play only one game, it’s a waste. If your subscription is over, that means you can’t play that game without paying.

Think about it. It’s Apple. Their goal is to try make as much profit as possible.
