Earlier in the year they removed the trial offer. Now it’s returned, but worse than before.

    There was literally a developer that wasn’t bringing something out on xbox, it might have been dlc? their reasoning was that they didn’t want to spend the time porting to xbox because no one buys content anymore on xbox.

    so no

    Even at Gamepass’ highly aggressive price, it seems clear that it’s not killing off one-time game purchases.

    is not at all true, we have evidence to the opposite of that.

      I think you are talking of Furi. The developers shared how many units were sold on which platforms (link to Vice article), which showed that Xbox just wasn’t worth working on because it wouldn’t recoup the costs. For reference, the game was already a few years old at that point and MS refused to put it on GamePass, which would’ve hurt the game’s visibility even more.
