All hail enshitification!
Oh man I love when companies make stupid tonedeaf decisions like this.
Hey you know how we haven’t made a great first party game in over a decade?
Yeah?
Well, what if to boost sales numbers we add a tier that ONLY gives you our lame first party games!
Because they refuse to see games as a creative artform. Or, they think they ate, but then do the worst corpo bs to them. This all reeks of some boardroom joining all their MBAs together to come up with this brilliant shit covered plan.

I personally don’t think anyone should pay for xbox game pass, but this is a bit of an exaggeration imho. Xbox Game Studios have published some great games in the past decade. Among them, in no particular order:
- Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition
- Age of Empires 4
- Psychonauts 2
- A couple of Forza games
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps
- Hellblade 2
- Grounded
- As Dusk Falls

Sounds awful, thanks. I can’t wait to laugh when I see the ridiculous amount they probably want per month.
it would need to be so much cheaper to be worth it. Like current GP ultimate already is a scam and a half unless you were essentially buying a AAA title every 2 months, unless the price of this subscription is at least a quarter the price of ultimate it wouldn’t be worth it imo.
All subscriptions inevitably turn to shit
