Dunno, I’m just going to let my subscription expire and go back to buying the 1-2 games that come out each year. It comes out cheaper that way and you own the games.
You own the games? Really? Do you buy digitally? If yes, far from you own it. Do you buy physical copy? You think you own it, but then some games require a multi-GB day zero patch to start after installation. Some even require online connection and even log in.
@mtcerio @Techmaster yes when you buy a game physical or digital you only paid for a license to play it, which can be revoked at any time by the owner.
The only platform that you own games on is GoG, everything else your SoL if Valve or EA or Microsoft day “Fuck you no more X game”
Gamepass is the better and cheaper way. It’s 3 Triple A games worth of cost over 1 year. Which is… A bargain for what you get.
Not when Xbox only gets 1-2 AAA games per year.
What? Xbox gets many AAA games per year…
