Dude, stop turning me into your strawman.

I’m not arguing that the game industry isn’t awful or that game pass is the best, or the Activision merger is good. Collectively, we already spilled so much ink on those things and inevitably it doesn’t matter because they’re happening anyway and all these arguements are only used to further divide gamers into “sony” or “MS” camps fighting over which multi-billion dollar company to hate or stan.

What I’m arguing against is your belief that you’re going to be required to pay for game pass to get games. That has not happened. It will not happen for the reasons I already outlined above. This is a made up argument to drum up fear and hatred of MS (presumably in favor of Sony).

Name a single game, existing or future, that is solely exclusive to game pass without any other ways to get it. I’ll wait… … … … … And when you can’t - then you should examine why you believe so strongly, without evidence, and despite evidence to the contrary, that this doomsday scenario will happen. And who it could benefit to make you, and others, believe and fear and argue with such emotion that MS is taking games away from you.
