For gamepass imo the best value is from playing smaller titles with limited replayability. I’ve played a ton of games to completion that I wouldn’t have otherwise. Currently I’m playing through Botany Manor, other ones that stand out are Jusant, Scorn, and Art of Rally (gone now unfortunately).

It introduced me to Sea of Stars and I could not stop playing that game until I completed the story. It made me envy every person that backed the Kickstarter and finally got to play it for the first time. I adore Gamepass for gems like that. You and I could probably exchange suggestions for those 4-5 hour, small indie team games. They’re passion projects for people. I find so much soul and love in those small games.
For example, I haven’t yet played Botany Manor, but still have it installed for when it comes to me. My wishlist on there is huge. I’ll spend 15 minutes sometimes going through every game to add things. My wife will play the same couple games for months and really delve into them. I have a constant rotation of 5-10.
