Gamepass is one of the most value destructive ideas ever introduced in the gaming market if not the worst.

The only way it ever made sense was in the contex where MS was trying to outspend Sony out of the market.

And the Achilles heel of Game development. You know thy constricted game budgets just to fit into the game pass model.


Every sane person said this. It feels good to be vindicated, but it sucks what's happening to Microsoft's victim studios.

This also just shows how desperate they are to turn things around and why they are releasing their games on PlayStation.

They were just completelly wrong about where the market was going.
