What is your opinion on gaming subscription services?

Unless MS is straight up lying to absolutely everyone, every time they talk about their statistics of GP users, we know this isn't true. GP can absolutely save you money...but it can also lead to you spending more money, because you're engaging with more content than you were before, and if you're enjoying that content, you may feel compelled to buy DLC, microtransactions, or just buy some game outright because you loved it so much.

So all the people saying it saves them lots of money, including me, are wrong? Where are the people that spend more money after getting subscriptions?

Is the part I wrote there about how it CAN save you money only visible to me? It's saving me money too, and I'm happy for it. Clearly though, again, unless MS is lying to everyone (which I imagine wouldn't go over particularly well with all these studios and publishers they're making deals with), the larger trend among GP users is that they're spending more money. Where are these people? I don't really care.
