After the announcement of the delay of Starfield, a Bethesda title that was shaping up to be Xbox Game Studios’ big premiere for a 2022 plagued by changes in plans, the environment has become hostile for the Microsoft brand. The questioning about the absence of those great AAA titles that would be available on day 1 on the service became a constant, escalated and reached the forefront, although it seems that the brand got fed up.
Xbox Game Pass account on Twitter responds to a criticism about the service
Let’s go by parts, in recent days, social network users published that they had canceled their subscription to Xbox Game Pass due to the lack of relevant video games and the absence of large productions promised for this year. Being a controversial topic, it did not take long to go viral on social networks, explaining the reasons, some appealing to what was already mentioned, others that there is not something that interests them and some more pointing out that they are disappointed in the brand for not having great games for this anus.

As expected, this led to various interpretations and an article by my box He quoted the situation described and even shared the sentiment of some well-known members of the video game and technology press, who also announced that they were canceling their subscription. Immediately afterwards, the official Xbox Game Pass account responded to the site’s publication ironically: “tell me that you only play AAA titles without telling me that you only play AAA titles”, considering that those who have criticized the service only think of the big productions and not the rest of the games available.

The community is debating the pros and cons of Xbox Game Pass right now
This answer ignited the spirits and various Twitter users have not stopped debating about it. Some support the Xbox Game Pass offer made up of AAA titles, exclusives, AA, and featured games from the indie scene. Others expressed their frustration at the long cadence between releases, saying they signed up early in the current generation of Xbox Series X|S thinking they would have access to the big titles from Xbox Game Studios, but they haven’t come out in numbers that be attractive to them.
Yeah this year I’ve played Tunic, The Forgotten City, and am currently playing Trek to Yomi through Game Pass and probably wouldn’t have bought any of them otherwise
One of the coolest things about Game Pass imo is how much easier it makes to try indie titles
