Yeah. No.
You can't say that and keep it off the only subscription model that is making any waves. Honestly, if you want subscription options to take off, you need to ride the gamepass wave until it subsides and then build up from their when people are lost with all their games gone or on a subscription that is way too expensive.
And PoP has already been cracked. Piracy remains a service problem.
Oh yeah, so what's next on the plan? Making gamers comfy with not owning their games. Good luck to that. Who hired this moron? Ubisoft is looking doomed. Microsoft's next purchase. Haha! What a dumb thing to say.
