From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

"...Game Pass members will soon be able to stream select PC games from the library through Nvidia GeForce Now..."

Do you want me to subscribe to Game Pass and GFN? Because this is how you get me to subscribe to Game Pass and GFN...

On a more serious note, this reads a lot like a move by Microsoft to convince government investigators that they aren't planning to edge competing cloud services out of the market.

Also, I'm going to reserve my enthusiasm until I've seen the games list.

It's nice if you already have GFN, but I wouldn't say it's a killer feature, as you can already stream Game Pass games with xCloud at no additional cost anyways, right?

You can only stream console games with xcloud. GFN would be able to stream the pc only games included on gamepass. That on top of better quality streaming and support for inputs besides a single controller can make GFN a valuable choice for game streaming over just xcloud. It sucks that you would be paying for two game streaming services thou.
