So Gamepass just launched in my country and I found out how insanely cheap it was for a year. Proceeded to look into the games selection and to my surprise there are quite a lot of big name titles. I was fully expecting complete junk games with xbox titles sprinkled in but this shit is amazing. Started playing Yakuza like a Dragon on it. Why didn't Yea Forums tell me about this Gamepass shit any sooner? Do I even need Steam anymore? This shit way more convenient than pirating too
Gamepass
Cute asian girls are the cutest. Miyeon best girl!
yup it's so convenient and so much cheaper, this totally won't take over the industry in 10 years while they slowly raise prices and get exclusives games haha, I love subscriptions!
God I hope they take over the industry. I'd rather pay $40 a year for a huge selection of games including day one releases instead of paying $70 for each new game
This is a Sony board, take your cancer and fuck off.
Hello fellow SEAsian.
Its fine if you get a 4 months for 2$ deal but otherwise I wouldnt pay for it.
>$40 a year
try $100 a month when every company takes their game off gamepass to start their own subscription service and raises prices
bring back xbox indie marketplace
i need to play demos of shovelware
Well OP, as long as the service works for you then that's fine. Just remember that what may seem like a good deal now may not be so good in future - we've already seen this happen with TV streaming services going to shit, so the chance that it might happen with game 'rental'(?) is not insignificant.
Also that girl in your OP pic is painfully slim, it would be hotter if she were pumped full of whipped cream until she was a plump, creaking bomb ready to explode.
Based Miyeonposter.
Sounds like a made up scenario thought up by a retard. We already see what raising prices does to a subscription service. Customers leave. Just look at Netflix. Microsoft isn't gonna pretend nothing is going on with Netflix and not learn from that. In the mean time, $40 a year ( converted regional pricing of course) for big titles that will cost over hundreds of dollars when bought individually, is good and I will take advantage of that instead of giving tranny crack groups any attention
How good is gamepass in Korea?
Just use Steam for that, it's the better equivalent.
Bear in mind a lot of games leave after a year or so
To be fair, customers leave because they have alternatives. HBO is still cheap, so is Amazon Prime. On top of that, pirating/streaming shows is even more popular than pirating games.
I wouldn't compare it 1:1 with a scenario where there's multiple game pass type services, each one costing a bundle, and with games DRM'd out the ass so you can't pirate them.
>Why didn't Yea Forums tell me about this Gamepass shit any sooner?
This board is overrun with snoy shills who want you to buy the latest $70 movie games
Oh look, a thinly veiled pedophile thread made by another troon.
Ironically piracy went down when Netflix introduced streaming a decade ago, but has been back on the rise because of how many streaming services there are
> OP posts cute Asian girl
> White "women" start seething out of nowhere
Like pottery.
Who's her? Reverse didn't work
Because that worked out very well for the movie industry
We are pretending that we are in a situation where gamepass has enough competitors to drastically increase prices. If customers leave, competitors already exist. Xbox won't let the one leg they have over Sony be taken away that easily though
Kareshi-chan
>buy three years worth of Xbox Live Gold keys from keysite for 40 bucks
>pay 1 dollarydoo to upgrade those three years to Gamepass Ultimate
Thanks uncle Phil
Customers are leaving because netflix tried to sneak up the price

Thats because zoomers dont know how to torrent
After it entirely destroyed the dvd market and killed multiple genres, netlifx finally took a hit yet we're still on the same path, nothing is changing there. It's not just the movie industry either, it's every tech industry. They all start out cheap and increase prices.
If you think they're going to indefinitely take a loss on this because netflix got a little backlash finally after a decade of increasing prices you're wildly mistaken.
You're thinking Microsoft has the sole say in this. The bigger it gets the more publishers are going to pull their games out of gamepass to make their own version. Ubisoft and EA area already doing this, more will follow.
By that logic piracy should be going down, not up over the last decade
Ahh yes, which is why piracy sites are bigger than ever retard.
New Ubisoft and EA games are on gamepass and those games even use ubisoft and ea launchers. They'd be retarded to leave gamepass and set up their own inferior version especially considering Xbox is an actual platform that their own games will have to rely on anyway. Xbox will learn from Netflix's mistake anyway.
It's like you completely ignored the second half of my post. I know reading is hard, but please try to apply yourself
Which one? Your abyssmal retarded claim that zoomers dont know how to torrent?
Ahh yes, because they dont have to torrent anything anymore and anythings available at 10mb/sec direct download website and streams
Stop pulling shit out of your ass to make a narrative that doesnt exist.
Gamepass actually seems nice but I refuse to install windows 10 or 11.
Are you even quoting the right person? Or are you just that blinded by rage and the need to be right that you can't see how you're making a fool out of yourself?
get with the times, gramps
>pretending to be multiple people
>Piracy went down because
>But it also increased
Jesus christ user
>piracy rates were on the decline 10 years ago
>10 years later piracy rates are increasing
What's so hard about this to understand?
You expect Yea Forums to have basic English comprehension?
>Netflix killed piracy
>Piracy also increases while netflix is a thing
sticc
>women that look like this exist
>i will never meet them
Yeah you're right, this board has been overrun by ESLs and highschool dropouts
Netflix was a great deal when it started too.
Subscription services are inherently cancerous.
netflix just took a major hit for this, microsoft will not make the same mistake and remain a good deal. if it is not a good deal people will leave, its that simple. even if they make exclusive gamepass game u can just pirate.
>even if they make exclusive gamepass game u can just pirate.
There is literally only one person that is both capable and willing to make denuvo cracks currently, everyone else got paid off and are literally working at denuvo now. And the one person who is still making cracks is completely either underage or mentally challenged (on a social level, hes clearly very smart with it comes to crypto). Piracy is dying.
>user lacks grade school reading skills
because each and every media company wasn't happy with just getting royalties and wanted to make their own netflix with blackjack and hookers, which reduced how many shows you can get in one place, defeating the entire point of netflix.
Retard
Don't be gullible. Capitalism needs growth.
Once they reach their peak subscriber count, the only way to grow is increase the price.
>Even more asspulls
then i leave, just like i did with netflix 10 years ago
Cmon man you gotta try harder than that
because renting isn't new
and renting is shit
Why are you replying to a fucking retarded anime poster
The "good deal" part is meant to be a growth phase. You can't remain profitable like that, there is such as a thing as too good a deal.
I'm just out baiting the baiter
>You can't remain profitable like that
I would agree if this was a startup and not microsoft, they can afford to keep it cheap and just use it to bring in customers
>Why didn't Yea Forums tell me about this Gamepass shit any sooner?
Because we're not corporate shills, and anyone defending online RENTAL garbage needs to be lynched.
>This shit way more convenient than pirating too
Like I said: kys.
>piracy is dying
what i will do!
i wont be able to buy games i'm not willing to buy!
what
Asian girls are only hot when they're chubby or fat
if your game has a problem you cant fix it because you dont have access to files, you can't use any mods because of the same reason, piracy is a better option
Stop samefagging

Retard bro there's nothing stopping you from modding shit like MCC
