...but I'm not signing up for Apple Arcade (already did the demo).
Shame they don't offer a simple $4.99-9.99/game purchase option.
Oh well - Zillions of other games.
It’s no wonder that mobile app stores are riddled with in app purchases. They’re catering to a market that wants everything for free. It’s the same problem news sources are having.
I appreciate what Apple is attempting with Arcade, but the damage was done when the first mobile games were free or $1. The market was conditioned at that point.
