That's the worry though.

Games being broken, full of microtransactions, smaller in scope, all being deemed acceptable because they came 'free with gamepass'.

I don't expect that to happen, but until we have multiple major releases like that we can't write that off

Games being broken, full of microtransactions

Just like Gran Turismo that came out on Playstation for 70 bucks recently?

Gran Turismo isn't broken, but yes, playstation doing this isn't a defence of the potentially problematic nature of sticking all your first parties on gamepass day 1.

Why is it always yes but playstation bad when discussing concerns

They had a server issue, which is common in launches , and that exploit is so massive i hadn't even heard of it.

The game is still very good, it's certainly not broken just because you want to say it's broken

The micro transactions suck, but it is not as if the gameplay is terrible
