    That’s what Gamepass is for, keeping you on Microsofts playground. You aren’t installing PC games, they essentially provide you with Xbox games and an “emulator” that runs them. It won’t be fixed because it heards folks to Windows, as intended.

      Gamepass games aren’t emulated. They’re installed and run natively just like anything else. Some of them are harder to mod than other platforms, but this is largely due to file permissions and ownership issues and the way some games are packaged/configured.

      I don’t really like the service because I prefer not to rent my games monthly, but that just isn’t correct.

      I’ll need to remember that they force developers to build xbox versions of Windows only games just for gamepass
