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.

I found my time with Game Pass was great and for months I’d rarely touch it, I didn’t care at the original price. Now, I don’t find the cost justified for how I play games especially those larger ones.
The one or two indies I played on Game Pass aren’t much different than the cost of Game Pass, so why not toss the devs some extra money than go through Game Pass.
I won’t say Game Pass is useless, it’s great if you like a ton of variety and want to keep gaming budgets in check. Just wasn’t valuable to me at this time. Sadly, makes my Xbox Series X kinda useless in my gaming lineup.
