- Comment on "I’m Canceling My Subscription": Xbox Players Call to "Boycott" Game Pass "Hard" Over 50% Price Increase As Microsoft’s Website Crashes from Mass Cancellations 2 weeks ago:
That math just isn’t true. I was on and off game pass from 2019-2021, and every time I resubscribed it was in part because they’d offer me 1-3 months for $1 each, and then $10 for the next month or two before I would cancel. During those periods I would play the games I would never go out of my way to buy to try (Forager, Slime Rancher, Donut County) and multiplayer campaigns with my buddy that I knew I’d never play again (Gears of War 5, Journey to the Strange Planet, Wolfenstein Young Blood). It was never going to last, but there was a time where game pass was insanely good value if you did it right.

Not just the customers, but the “business partners” too! If you want your search results at the top of the list, pay up! Sometimes you even get to pay for your ad to be shown in a context that’s not relevant at all, despite all the data collected to personalize ads!
