No, because i think they're putting a lot of investment in streaming and cloud, and bringing Steam onto their platform.

引用自 Bind0fGod：

Why did this happen? Could it have been avoided?

microsoft is flying too close to the sun buying out studios and thinking they're going to produce another smash hit.

usually people are lost when one sells a business, so there's never a guarantee that the original geniuses who created that amazing thing are going to stick around for another, under the inevitable change in rules and policy stuff that goes along with it.

A lot of the studios they purchased were already going downhill.
Maybe their only smart acquisition was Mojang- and making them work on spin-offs was a huge mistake.

Wokeness destroys companies

I was looking forward to PD, what a shame.

xbox never had games, they never released good games, they bought and destroyed small studios left and right, they raped their own franchises, joined the skittles army cult and ruined everything once more and now they lost their jobs

Well deserved.

Forza, Halo, Gears of War are all great games.

引用自 Phil Spencer, Human Douche：

I recognize that these changes come at a time when we have more players, games, and gaming hours than ever before. Our platform, hardware, and game roadmap have never looked stronger.

“u have made xbox stronger then ever thank u 4 ur service now gtfo and die pls”

A boring and repetitive TPS game spoon-feeding you before boss fights
Zoomers first generic FPS
A GT clone that on its first instances was locked to a cat warmer with no games, which then got padding and rpg elements for the sake of it and more junk, yeah the first games probably were good, probably. But I don't buy a console to play 1 game.

Nothing was going to live up to the original Perfect Dark anyway.

Hopefully now they can start fresh on a new perfect dark game starring Joanna Dark instead of Johan Dark.

Yeah, that's why they all flopped hard.

She always looked like a boy.

But then again, most all these Triple A's or flopping.

I wouldn't mind Xbox closing all of their studios, if it means they can provide me games on other outlets. Whether it's here at Steam or others thru their streaming features.

Triple As are just going thru a lull, and Xbox no different. But they have great sales, they have Ge Force Now, they have matters that keeps me with them. It's relatively cheap. I never had to upgrade, and decent customer services.

Can't really blame a bad Triple A market on them alone. I think there's a brain drain in gaming development today, and the only bright spot are the smaller independent developers.

Well, I was being sarcastic. If the aforementioned games were so bad as another user was implying, they wouldn't achieve the commercial success they had.
