I wonder what the conversion rate to GPFF will be if you have a bunch of years of GPU already stacked. And I wonder how they’ll handle adding multiple people to one GPFF plan that already have GPU stacked.
Speaking of conversion rates… nothing called out explicitly, but one could assume it’s based on cost, so €13 / €22 * Number of GPU Days Left = Days of GPFF. So roughly 60% GPU to GPFF?

I am good with GPU until 2024, so I hope when they introduce these nothing changes for current GPU members. And then in 2024 we probably will go with family plan. Or not, because I don’t care much for streaming and the way I got it now is fine.
That’s interesting that Group Members’ existing subscription cannot be rolled into a Family Plan. It kinda, sorta makes sense, it has potential to be kind of messy otherwise. But it does mean that those of us with years stacked up (which I imagine is a fair few of us) will be unable to join Family Plans for a while.
Unless you’re the primary account holder and want to create the new family group.
I’m hoping this rolls out to the US before January, when my Sister’s GPU is set to expire. This way I can create the GPFF and add my niece and nephew to the GPFF. When my sister’s GPU finally runs out, I can enroll her account to GPFF.
If it rolls out later, I’ll need to extend her GPU month by month, hoping GPFF is soon to not spend too much on that.
Oh, for sure. There’s A LOT of use cases where that little wrinkle won’t make a difference. For everyone else, it’s just a matter of a waiting game, like you and your sister will have to do.
Maybe we could as a community find a good app or something that would help us group up for GPFF. I’m thinking of a set-up where you have to wire a certain amount based on your portion of the GPFF to an escrow-y sort of account so you can’t pull it back out. Then the primary account holder puts down the money for the subscription and invites the others. When that’s validated, then the primary can withdraw the money from the pot to get reimbursed.
And there could be different groups for like “interested in month to month” or “I’m willing to put down $180 right now so I don’t have to do this again for 3 more years”. I could just be reinventing the wheel though, and they did say they’re going to put in restrictions so you can’t jump from family plan to family plan.
It would be worth figuring out though, if it can decrease the price from like $25 to $5 a month.
Edit: I would love an add-on that also lets you share your library with more than one person.
If I recall correctly, there is a limit on how many times you can join or leave family and friends groups per year. Based on that, I do not find it feasible to try to do anything month to month with strangers. Keep the family and friends grouping to actual family or friends. Or have it be setup for an entire year.

My sub just expired and I’m trying to do the upgrade trick and I’m running into an issue. When I try and redeem my 2nd 12 month gold code I’m getting an error.
This purchase conflicts with one or more of your current subscriptions
The error I’m getting back on the web request is:
Conversion is blocked due to an existing entitlement for another product. There is no known conversion path to the new product.
I swear to Lucifer, if I’m the first person this shit fails for I’m going to lose it. I’ve tried 2 different codes and get the same errors.
Uh oh.
Support told me to wait 24 hours and try again. It’s possible I tried to do this too soon after my sub expired and the system thinks I still have ultimate. They said they’d add the time to my account if it didn’t work.
Phew, for a moment there I thought the are closing the “loophole”. I need to redo mine soonish… Keep us updated!
Looks like it worked. I just tried again and it accepted the codes now.

Ghost Song is incredible for me so far, possibly my favorite Metroidvania game yet. It seems like a hybrid between Hollow Knight and Metroid itself. The world is really different, and it is just cool.
The legend of Tianding is great!

It’s quite fun. The combat and platforming are nice, the art and animations look quite beautiful too.

Yeah definitely, really digging the comic book style here. Great music too. Cool story, it’s something different for a change. We don’t often get to be a Chinese character going against the Japanese. But it’s not overly serious or anything, like it.
The delay was because of an error in certification, but it’ll be coming this month.
And only two days after Pentiment
