Depends on the renting price. Renting a game day one and buying it later on sale would be often cheaper than buying it day one.
I have played a lot of games in a subscription and when they left that subscription they already were very cheap to buy on a sale.
Some games I played on GamePass when they were new and even before they left that sub model, I got the unlimited licence for free from Epic or as Amazon Prime game or in a Humble bundle.
