I don't see how you can honestly say people weren't cheerleading them buying Bethesda and Activision.What does that have to do with this forum?
Only thing I remember me included is MS/XB needed to grow and put out more games. Itās just so many donāt like the way they go about it and feel they āboughtā their way into this industry while Sony/Nintendo built everything they have.
Activision and Zenimax both wanted to be acquired.I don't see how you can honestly say people weren't cheerleading them buying Bethesda and Activision.
Sure if MS was faced with overwhelming negativity to them buying every studio which they certainly weren't. They faced a little bit with Bethesda and more to buying Activision and that is about it.
Here's the ex cinematics director of Tango saying it's false to that Reddit claim.
Looks like he may have been an contractor. He also worked on FFXVI and FFVII.
So? Of course they did.Activision and Zenimax both wanted to be acquired.
The dude left in 2015...
Sounds like it.Looks like he may have been an contractor. He also worked on FFXVI and FFVII.

So Mattrick ruined xbox and phil saved it when they both weren't really making the decisions?Not to sound like Iām just here to defend Phil, but he is one to be held accountable for, but itās only been until recently that heās gotten the power to present his decisions to the ceo of ms directly. He had to get the approval bey a handful of other people above him to even present it to said ceo, even though thereās maybe the three others above him still that call the shots cos theyāre ms not Xbox.
So we shouldn't be optimistic about what both companies want? Only pessimism allowed I guess.So? Of course they did.
The ones who praise it are people who's games didn't sell and then had more people play it when it went to the services so they got to talk about how many people played it isntead of bought it or indie devs who's games would never have any marketing anyway. You never see people who had successful AAA games come to the service and say they benefited from it if they weren't owned by xbox.I'll be honest; I've enjoyed the benefit of GP and feel I've gotten value. If I added the downfall of studios because I opted into the subscription then in the grand scheme of things, the model is broken. That wouldn't make sense. We've all seen some devs praise game subscriptions and comment unfavorably on it. Yes, purchasing probably ensures your are 100% supporting those developers.
If you are going to buy their first party games why give them an extra $204 a year?Yeah I doubt most will actually cancel.
If you really care just buy the game. Nothings stopping you even if you still have GP.
Also maybe complete it. Rush still has a very low % for completing the game.

What have they put out that is really a AAA level title in the last 10 years? I can't think of anything.We ignoring Sega then?
I did a quick search and I didn't find anything that painted him in a negative light, the fact that he defended someone who he doesn't want to work for at least to me shows he's mature enough to separate personal feelings from what he thinks is right.Not only is this not the guy you want championing for you right now. The message is dumb and he should never have typed it let alone hit send.
I don't see what the companies wanted to do has to do with cheerleading. Also criticizing the cheerleading doesn't mean that Microsoft did something wrong or evil by making of the acquisitions. Lets just admit there was a lot of BS surrounding it all and people bought in because they don't view Spencer as a suit.So we shouldn't be optimistic about what both companies want? Only pessimism allowed I guess.
Maybe they shouldnāt do day and date? Have like a 3 month window before they come to Gamepass?
Again who here was cheerleading it?I don't see how you can honestly say people weren't cheerleading them buying Bethesda and Activision.

After those first couple years I agree big games/money makers shouldnāt be launching day one on GP. Maybe just give GP subscribers discounts or bonuses for buy game day one then eventually roll the game into GP the way EA does on EA Play. The running narrative that GP hasnāt grown, isnāt profitable, doesnāt help salesā¦ even though these salty haters have no info on any of this to back up their claims is hilarious.Felt that for a while. Should have been 3 months after launch from the start.
