what's the other side of this? players will push through a game they don't really like, because they payed full price for it?

that says more about your game than it does GP players :yeshrug:
All devs talk about onboarding and needing to capture players within the first hour or so.

Gamepass just gives people a way to try more games than they would paying full price.

If your game is good and has hooks, people will stick around.

Let's not do this sir.

The value in GP being able to "test games" is a new tag line, not an original one.
Naw you cult members just live in your own reality.
Whole point of Gamepass is to try stuff for “free” that you wouldn’t otherwise care about
This was almost 5 years ago. When i said it, i got resistance from the cult.

Now here you are saying the opposite.

As always you cult members end up arguing against yourselves.

I haven't bought a game on Xbox in 10 years. I wait for Gamepass or until it's free. I played about 2 hours combined across maybe 30 games I downloaded this year.
