    2 easy achievement games, 1-2 hours for Adios and 4-5 for a The Vale (longer completion better rated) .. what's not to like on an achievement hunting site?

    I am not unhappy about them.

    Even if I was unhappy about them, they are free. They are a bonus on a subscription service they I don't have to pay extra for - getting upset about them not increasing my joy meter seems like a massive waste of energy on my part....
    Fully loaded, safety off. This here is a recipe for unpleasantness.

    Adios is definitely filling the gap in my life left by Elden Ring.

    If you have Gamepass and not just Gold, GwG is irrelevant. There is no time to play whatever GwG will give anyways. Personally I am in favor of 1-2 easy achievement indie games per month, and at least the last few months that is what they have been doing. June is perfect in that regard.

    Have they started to put the Series only games into the rotation? Or is it One/Series games or One only at this point?
    Killin' grubs is my business and business is good.

    That time of the month where people complain that the free things they don’t have to give away isn’t good enough for them ..
    They are not "free" as people have to pay a subscription to play. Gold is crap and has been for a very long time but I've accepted it I haven't bothered downloading anything for a very long time.

    PS+ offers better games every month Microsoft should be doing much better.
    PS+ for £50 - £100 a year. Or Gold+XboxGamePass+EAPlay+PCGamePass+Rewards for £42 a year (ignoring the rewards. Including the rewards, you are paid to have GamePass!).

    I know which one I'm going to pick laugh

    Yes and I prefer the smaller indie releases over triple A any day. I like playing games people typically care about making.

    Adios is conflicting for me. Did Microsoft understand the consept of the game before they vouched for it and released it to several million customers?

    For those who didnt get the retorical question: Adios is about suicide/euthanasia and big corporation should tread lightly in those subjects.

    Same thing happening for me with the Vale. Acting like I don't have Gold even though I have game pass ultimate. Unfortunately in my case, it also doesn't work on the website either.

    Anyone run into this and find a fix?

    Having the same problem myself as of last week. I've tried different browsers and on console but it just doesn't seem to detect my Gold through GPU.

    Hopefully it gets fixed...
