That’s dumb. That’s like saying you won’t buy a DVD because it’s available for rent at Blockbuster.

Well, that’s 50 studios that won’t ever see my money.

I will avoid giving Microsoft my money where possible, but I’m not going to oppose indie developers taking their money.
It just means their game trailers get an “Available with Game Pass” logo which I swiftly ignore.

Given the state of the industry right now, there’s a good chance these games simply wouldn’t have been made without these deals.
If the choice is between releasing on GP or not releasing at all, I don’t begrudge them for taking the deal.
