 I haven't used Gamepass, but I have used the Origin equivalent of that
(whatever they are calling it these days) to vet games that I wanted
an entire month to evaluate, but didn't want to commit to the initial
release price (which for some games is $120 for the "complete
edition").

It'd be nice if more games had demos again so you didn't have to pay for a month of Gamepass.  Especially as there's a number of games that are on Elite Gamepass (let us gouge you for more!) that I'm mildly interested in, but not enough to pay more.
