This looks like it will result in dark patterns to try and get people to stay beyond the treshold for increased returns.


What, offering enough value so the user subscribes for longer than a year? How is that a "dark pattern"?


No.


I could get if the 'threshold' is a week - games could start timegating things by a few days.

But really, we're talking about a year here. I feel its a long enough timeframe that mostly encourages good practices (like continuously providing value for subscribing customers).
