Yep. https://twistedvoxel.com/xbox-game-pass-price-hike-sparks-backlash-as-cancellation-website-crashes/ So much for Gamepass being the "best deal in gaming". $360 a year for a rental service. |
Its what I said in the article comments.
This will cost them a million or two subscriptions.
Social Media is full of pictures of people posting the cancelled subscription replies screenshots.
(ei. people are following through, and posting picture proof of them cancelling it)
Same thing happens on a few forums as well.
Neogaf has a thread called "Is Game Pass Ultimate going to survive?"
It has alot of cancelled screenshots.
Thats just the vocal minority of gamers though.
The real issue is probably the non gamerbro, thats now going "30$ is too much" and cancelling... the type that doesn't go on forums or social media.
I think part of this is also from reward system changes and limits to how much you can earn in rewards, now being tied to the tier of subscription you have. Alot of the "broke" sit at home play all day types, probably got gamepass for near free, from all the rewards you could wrack up. Those types cannot support gamepass that way anymore.
So that is what happends.
People cancel subscriptions or change them to lower tier ones.
