    @nanoUFO I feel like I’m the only Xbox owner that doesn’t do Game Pass, and it’s because I can play games when I want and at my own pace when I buy them. I don’t like wanting to play a certain game, but having to play something different because it’s leaving the service in a few days.

    Physical copies do not come with ownership anymore. Some physical copies of games are incomplete and require additional downloads and patches before they are even playable.

    In this event, making backups or piracy is your only recourse in maintaining the copies of something you own.

    Game Pass is an unsustainable business model and is only supported at a loss by Microsoft because they can afford it. Enshittification to follow.
