I was locked into Gamepass Ultimate for 2 years when I got my Series X. I would say overall it was a pretty good service. I played lots of games I had wanted to check out. But playing new games day 1 is what put it over the top, and with so few notable day 1 games on the service in the last ~17 months I have no plans on going back to it anytime soon.
Cheap deals on great games are very easy to come by on any platform too, including Xbox. I take advantage of digital sales on Xbox all the time. "Budget gaming" is possible on pretty much every platform (maybe not Switch), not just through Gamepass.
People does your time spent in Halo multiplayer really need to be about unlocking little cosmetics to make your character look different? There's plenty of enjoyment to be had in just playing the game, working together as a team to win, and learning how to play the game better.
