Gamepass made a lot of sense for my son during his teenage years. I know I would have gotten a lot of mileage out of it. Enthusiasts posting on a v.bulletin message board in 2025 probably don't have much use for it to make the value prop appealing, but the people are out there. However, I don't think there are enough teenagers and first-time gamers to make the ROI it needs. Even if you hate the business prospect of it, anyone here can say it would be amazing to have as a kid, unless you've got some breaded-up parents.
