    It would be good if gamepass didn’t disrespect your HDD by creating directories that cannot be got rid of except by reformatting the entire fucking drive. There is no reason for it to do that -_-

      Not sure why you’re being downvoted.

      Gamepass really abuses a bunch of “window features” to drm their games. On steam: folders and games, modding is easy, moving saves to GOG/Epic/etc is easy. In gamepass, it’s a nightmare.

      If you’re lucky, there are 10-20 step tutorials of how to move save games from steam to gamepass and vice versa.
