I was planning to cancel it a while ago but this actually made me do it.
Why?
- because of life obligations I consider myself lucky if I can play something once per week.
- with the money that I spend on the subscription I can buy a (more) older game(s) and keep myself entertained for half a year.
- having the latest releases is nice, but I can wait one year and buy it on some sale and if not… mneh… Whatever…
- sure you get hundreds of games with Game Pass, but most of them are either noise or not my type of genre.
- fuck Microsoft.

Yeah, I’m in a similar situation. Don’t get a lot of game time and I’ve got a pretty large backlog of stuff I want to play. If I like the look of something I wishlist it and buy it on sale for less than £10.
I think the gamepass model is going to be struggling with economic factors - many of us are working more and have less playtime, and money is tighter.
