    I never understood the praise at all. It’s literally turning DRM into a business model.

      It’s because it was pretty much the Netflix of video games. Pay a subscription and you get access to a collection of games.

      When it was 5.99 it was a no brainer. I think I cancelled mine around 13.99, though not because of the price but because I always forgot it existed and it tied me to windows. Switched to Linux and cancelling was a part of that transition.
