That’s what the support person said to me as well, but I didn’t get that option when I tried to cancel the subscription. My guess is that it wasn’t rolled out globally just yet, so if anyone didn’t find this option you can just contact the sales team to downgrade.

They still do that, though.

Just call the sales team and get the classic plan. No more having to deal with Copilot and you get the old price back.

Nah, it’s all hinges on Excel. It’s still unbeatable at this point.

I agree.

I’d consider No Man’s Sky a pretty successful live service game, as well.

I’m not sure you got the right definition of live service game. What you said is the definition of always online games.

You can call the sales team and ask them to change your subscription to the classic version to opt-out of Copilot and get the old price back, if you still need the subscription over changing to other open source office suites.

And why would paving the entire green space not be worse than only paving the paths people walk on?
