I finally switched my gaming rig two weeks ago. Been great so far, except VR and I'll admit, the Xbox Game Pass missing...I wish gog or someone would come up with something like it, because there have been a lot of games I started and didn't finish because they just haven't been my cup of tea...

Now if Autodesk would get their shit together as well, things could be happening at work as well.

I think subscription would go against gog and its DRM policy (how would they enforce a subscription period without DRM), specially because gog is like the last place where we can have something that resembles owning a game nowadays.

That's why I said "someone" and "something", because I'll be the first to admit I have absolutely no clue on how that would look like. Humble Bundle Choice is something I do like, but it's steam only...while that's cool in terms of proton, steam deck and so on, Steam is still a service that has to work, because without I can't use the products. With gog I can just save those files and use them whenever and wherever I need to... Windows, Linux...doesn't matter much.

i had gamepass working via browser on my computer.

my controller, on the other hand, never worked in the browser, so it kinda made it pointless thatn gamepass worked

Different Game Pass - talking about the one where you run the games locally...
