This is obviously just a money grab at this point, isn't it?

News of the family plan ending in August comes just days after Microsoft bumped its overall Xbox Game Pass monthly prices. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has move from $14.99 per month to $16.99 (€14.99 / £12.99).

I think gamers are just different based on taste. I tried the subscription and didn’t find anything I wanted to play (see my other comment). There are gamers who like it because they want to play games they wouldn’t buy. I buy games I want to play. I pay less than 120 bucks a year on games because I wait for discounts on Steam, I guess. For me the GamePass isn’t useful, as I’ve learned by trying it. For others, it is useful because they want to play all the games they can.
