"Ex-Blizzard President Advocates Tipping Game Developers and Warns of Gaming Subscription 'Fatigue'"

Former Blizzard boss Mike Ybarra suggests the option to "tip" game developers after completing a game, expressing a desire to give more than the initial purchase price for exceptional experiences. While acknowledging potential resistance and concerns about industry practices, Ybarra highlights games like Horizon Zero Dawn and Red Dead Redemption 2 as examples of titles deserving of additional support. This proposal comes amid changes at Blizzard, with the recent appointment of Johanna Faries as the new president following Ybarra's departure and Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
