If you want to argue for as cheap as something could get, you can say their game is worth $0.33 as I just got 3 months for $1 of PC games pass during BF. It’s not a price I’d say is normal, as I can’t get it that cheap going forward. I’d say the $10 range is fair talking point for this, as $15 is for Ultimate which isn’t necessary.

I think the issue is that GP is a rental service, much like GameFly. I can trial GF right now for free, so any game I rent during the 1st month would be worthless under the “$1” argument. Every other game, during normal pricing, would be worth $15.95 (for the 1 game plan). If you buy books, are they worthless if you can borrow one from the library for free? It’s all about ownership and value.

And quick aside, the game has been on sale. In fact, it saw the deepest discount it ever had ($19.79) the same day it went on Game Pass.

Speaking of, if you find ownership value off kilter for $60, wait for a sale – I do, for literally every game I buy lol. I prefer to own, but I’m not going to ignore GP if the value is right. I tend to only do it when I can get it for $1-5, so not frequently, but it’s good to try out games & either beat them for nearly nothing, or know I’m happier to not have bought it at all. To me, renting ≠ buying, so I guess – for me at least – one doesn’t have an effect on the value of the other. I won’t say it isn’t that way for you, just trying to provide the other side of the coin.
