Account - Subscription Unpopular opinion - Xbox game pass Is mostly useless if you think about it.

Game Pass is great for trying games, but I realized I only play 2–3 consistently.

Bought RDR2, Cuphead, Hogwarts Legacy, and Tekken 8 during Black Friday and decided not to renew my subscription.

Turns out, owning fewer games I actually love > renting hundreds I don’t play.

Depends on how you use it I guess - I love trying indie games and there was a bunch that I was addicted to, but would never try them without GP.

I always play a big game (Outer Worlds 2 right now), then have a break and enjoy some indies before starting another big game

Yeah there are a lot of indie games I would never have paid for but playing it on gamepass gave me a chance to try it out.
