In the graveyard of live service games Concord may just be the biggest headstone, and that seems to have focused some minds over at PlayStation. Previously the noises coming from Sony were all about the importance of live service games to its future strategy, and it had announced plans to launch more than 10 live service games by the 2025 fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2026.

Now? Not so much. A new Bloomberg report reveals that "following a recent review" PlayStation has canceled two unannounced live service games in development at subsidiaries Bend Studio and Bluepoint Games. Bend is best-known for Days Gone and, back in the day, Syphon Filter, while Bluepoint mainly handles high-profile remakes like Demon's Souls.

Warframe's MTX is so fair too. All of it can be earned in game, get items sell items for Platinum (paid currency) get the item from the shop.

The exception is the Fan made skins that are a few bucks. But those directly support the fan created skins.

Warframe is mostly pay-2-convenience.

The latest story expansion Warframe 1999 was phenomenal. If you havent played it yet, definitely follow through the main story it's all tied together. One of the best stories that continue to deliver.
