Not for me, I think gamepass is a neat service on paper, tried it out a couple of times when it was on discount, it doesn't really fit my style of play, sometimes I won't touch some games for months or years before I get back to them or sometimes I feel like replaying them, and I don't like being on a timer in that sense, rather just buy it and get to it whenever I want, like I pretty much just tried Hellblade and Outer Worlds the couple of times I had it, the former I really disliked and the latter is something I would rather own due to the genre, there is also a very small selection for me in terms of stuff I care about playing, and with indie games I also just rather buy the game as a sign of support.

This is pretty much my experience, adding in that I also replay games I've beaten all the time at random intervals and play a bunch of games with seemingly infinite replay value so it affects how I finish other games in my backlog as well. Feeling like there's an expiration date to the games on a service puts a weird pressure on me to either never start them because they might not be there when I get around to wanting to finish them, or rushing through and feeling like I didn't get to really play the way I wanted to.
