Looking at the quality of games mixing the two up in this case it's an easy mistake to make

I forgot Everspace 2 released so I'm happy with this month.

Well I guess we know where all that gamepass money is going right into a giant s labelled bucket

Microsoft is spending $70B on Activision. That doesn’t leave a lot left over for other AAA games.
