Happy GPU subscriber here. It has changed how I buy games, for the better for my finances especially if you ask my wife haha

For me I just can't support it because I feel like it's just one more step in changing digital ownership. Always my fear that one day I'll wake up and storefronts aren't a thing, you have to subscribe to play a game.

I like it, cheaper than Netflix used to be, and I use it for more hours / month. Rn I’m using it to play starfield.

Anyone not using Eneba to get three month Xbox live gold cards is missing out. Converts to 50 days of gamepass for less than 9 dollars.
