However, like PlayStation Plus, you’ll only have access to those games that you claim as long as you’re subscribed to the service.

Not a fan of these subscription services that don't let you keep what you've already claimed. I would vastly prefer a subscription service that allows access to discounted games or something, and then if you cancel you still can access whatever games you have bought. But, then again, I'm a known games packrat - maybe for the duration of time one might reasonably use the Quest, this shakes out to still be valuable? How often do regular users go back to old games?

I wouldn't say I'm a fan of them, but I don't mind them. If there's a game from that list that I really, really want to keep playing, I can just buy that game. In the mean time, I got to enjoy all the other games that were fun for just a short time.

I definitely prefer XB Game Pass instead, though, where the whole catalog is available no matter when you started and whether or not you clicked a button in time.
