I have been "subscribed" to game pass on two occasions, played a ton of games and and loved the service. The thing is, I have never actually paid the full amount for it.

I got free a one month subscription when I bought my Xbox One S. I then took advantage of a three months for $1 deal about half a year later. In those four months I played pretty much every game I was interested in.

I now qualify for a "1 month for $1" deal on game pass ultimate, which I am saving for when the next MS blockbuster hits. I do wonder how many people have done something similar. Gears 5, Rare Replay, Halo Wars 2 and Halo 5 are all games I would have bought if they weren't available on game pass.
