It’s been an amazing ride, and one many of us will look back on fondly after the news that the new user trial will now only last 14 days.

We know two week’s worth of gaming for such a small fee is the epitome of first world problems, but let’s consider how difficult it is to play all those incredible games in such a short window of time. A month isn’t enough, so 14 days feels almost insulting.

Well, the trial isn’t designed to beat every game, is it? It’s designed to let you figure out if you like the service.

Making a big deal out of the free trial going from a month to 2 weeks? Cry me a river.

It was $1 for nearly infinite games for a month. I did it the last 2 years but come the fuck on, that deal was never going to be permanent.

Microsoft are really making sure this game puts a bad taste in people’s mouths.

First they jack up the price of GamePass and now they half the trial period. They say it’s not because Starfield comes out soon. They must think we’re all idiots.
