I should not need to explain this one.

The annoying thing about that is Xbox games on PC are free to play online but I have to pay to play the exact same game online on my £450 Series X.

That's not true though, at least for over a year now.

F2P games do not require Xbox live to play anymore.

Games that aren’t free do though. Forza Horizon 5 and Sea and Thieves for example need Xbox Live on console to play online yet on PC online is free despite them using the exact same servers.
