I never had a problem with giving up a game i wasn’t enjoying, but i can see it being nice for removing that commitment if you find yourself overstaying your welcome in a game you’re not really enjoying just to get your moneys worth.
It’s not that I want gamepass to go away or think it’s bad. But i can’t help but notice the second a game releases to gamepass I’m less interested in it. Commodifying games has done what was intended, i suppose…made them a commodity rather than something special.
I guess this also makes more sense in 2023, where AAA games are often not very good and often even broken on launch, or incomplete with day one dlcs. Not very tempting to drop 60$ on a product like that.
I think the conclusion I’m coming to, is game pass is a good solution for the annoying terrible state the game industry is currently in. But not for me personally. I’m too jaded to pay attention to new games, I stick with my classic titles and indies mostly.
