And what about when Microsoft ups the price on their subscription, which is clearly their strategy as gamepass doesn’t appear to be profitable?

At least if you’d spent that 120€ on 2-3 games you’d be able to keep them forever.

That 120€ subscription could easily become 200€, 250€, or more. Something people may feel compelled to pay for if MS continues buying up the industry and decides to make games exclusive, which is something they’re already doing to some extent.

Maybe I’m crazy, but I don’t think giving MS a disproportionate amount of power over the market is a good thing.
