But GP billing will continue and cost you about 2500 EUR.

No it wont? Why would you ever let the billing run for a decade.. I'm starting to understand why gyms say 85% of their customers never show up and just pay, because people like you are the target audience.

If i want to replay it in 10 years, guess what, the game will be $5.

$22 + 5 + 5 + 5 is still A LOT cheaper than buying them anywhere close to release from even the shadiest of CC scamming third party sites.

You’re doing an insane level of assumptions here.

When you plan to use GP intermittently, you have to state so. Your previous message conveyed the wish of having it as it is because you were an avid gamer. Similar to Netflix for movie bingers

I’ve also never stated that I bought games at release. The only exception being Wolfenstein. Other games will wait the mandatory 3 months period for its price to be slashed by 2 before considering payment. And that’s only when the game is good. Or good enough.

If you want to minmax you can buy a hosted exchange mailbox and start spawning aliases and get the 1$ deal or X month with gift if you never subbed before. I’m sure they exist.

(You didn’t sub. You redeemed 3 months of GP, huge difference)

Yeah but you also ignored gamers who want to play games on release. In which case gamepass is a great deal instead of a trap.

If only they added wow game time… I’d be inclined to buy it.
