Ok, so what are they? I think I bought a season pass for something ages ago and couldn’t figure out what it was for. I’m paying for something without knowing what it will be, right?
Season pass are bundled dlcs usually at a discount. While it’s true most people buying it don’t know what they’re paying for, it’s totally possible to buy it once every dlc included has been released.

Paying for something without knowing what it will be for is also not really a hallmark feature of a subscription.
