From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

... Humble monthly? Game pass? EA play? Even PS Plus has subscriptions for streaming to a PC. People buy these things a lot. You can try to excuse Humble monthly but there are far more game pass players than Humble monthly ones. Either way, you can pretend that PC doesn't tolerate this nonsense but many people are playing Starfield on Game Pass this month. PC players already tolerate this and in some cases, welcome it.
Those aren't the same or similar. Those are options in addition to buying that allow access to a large library of games (except humble, which is just buying games). They aren't "pay this subscription or you can't play the game you bought".
Ps plus is not that either.
Yes, it is exactly that.
If you buy a multiplayer game and stop paying for plus, you cannot play any more.
Only on the console. This goes for Xbox as well. It's not really subscription games but instead subscription drm you are upset at.
