XBOX Game Pass has increased to $30 per month. I'm subscribed until October of next year, but a notice on my console seemed to imply that I had until November 4 before the change would occur. So I started looking into cheaply adding time to my subscription by buying time from key sellers. I took a gamble on a 6-month card that was for the India region, but I wasn't able to redeem it. It did tell me, though, that the change has already happened.
I've basically decided that in the long run, simply buying games outright is probably cheaper than the subscription. I've got a year to mull that over. So in the meantime I've started making a list of games that I don't currently own that I might want to buy to play after my subscription ends. I'll watch for sales and sample the games on my list to see which ones matter. The only current question is Hellblade II, which is now at a historical low for the next ten days. The reviews aren't great, but I like the gameplay style. I'll try it a bit to see whether to spend the money or not.
