It's this or buying nothing. I play most games for a few hours to see what they're like and then ditch them. I love the current system as it is kinda making me feel like I'm part of gaming still while mostly being too tired to play. Starfield is the first game in years I've spent more than 5 hours on (dozens by now) in years. Never would've played it without gamepass.

So a yay from a guy in his late 30s

I haven't used a disc in a long time. Even before I got my series s most everything I played was gamepass or a digital purchase. When used physical games barely cost less than a new game, why bother?
