XBox Gamepass PC Beta

Couldn't find a discussion or link where I could post my issue(s) so decided to drop a few lines here as it's an Xbox service and everyone would probably tell me to talk to the Xbox guys & gals anyway. Kind of used to that.

Having issues running Metro: Exodus and Recore; games start up with normal opening credits, but neither ever make to the start menu, While Metro: Exodus poses possible issue concerning system requirements Recore should run fine.

Metro: Exodus gets to the screen just prior to actually accessing the game's start menu options (Artyom shot) and hangs; not really sure if I was allowing ample time for the game to properly initialize but it seemed to hang thus I would terminate the process.
I would get the standard start up dialog for the game after "improperly" shutting it down with the options to run the game in safe mode or not -running the game in safe mode resulted in Metro: Exodus crashing to desktop after a black screen while running it
normally the game could actually get up to the point the menu options should become available.

Recore would hang considerably during the black screen transition between the opening credit sequence and what I assume to be the actual start screen of the game. The activity spinner at the bottom center of the screen would stop rotating shortly after the
background music starts and the game would hang. Moving the mouse cursor toward the bottom of the screen would pop-up Windows Taskbar which has me believe the game isn't getting focus. When I'd minimize and restore Recore to and from the task bar after the
game hangs it would simply crash after about 5 seconds consistently.

Have downloaded, played and unlocked 2 achievements in Ruiner, also downloaded and installed using the Gamepass for PC Beta service, without any noticeable issues throwing a monkey in the wrench, but also bringing a little hope into the mix as well. Have
few issues at all with any game developed with the Unreal Engine EVER so it does not surprise me that Ruiner would run as it should.

At any rate, suspect that Metro: Exodus may simply be to demanding for my current PC configuration, but Recore should run with no problem as my system meets all requirements for the game. Going to give either Gears remastered or Gears 4 a shot, but expect
them to work -not promoting or playing favorites, but they are published in part or whole by Microsoft and use the Unreal Engine so...
