I am getting the impression you're acting dumb to extend the argument. The general consensus is MS needs to step up 1st party. They are clearly addressing that. The added PC support will benefit that via increased revenue and more variety. MS isnt just Xbox consoles, its also a company that has a popular PC OS. Unsurprisingly they want to make Xbox compliment Windows and its Store, it's long overdue in my opinion. It will also mean more people around the world will play Xbox content. Hence, encourages more spending on content and we get more content. Some content is happening due to PC popularity. Are you suggesting MS isn't concerned with 3rd party content? They get most content on other platforms and just acquired significant content I wasnt expecting. Several Yakuza games, the Kingdom Hearts trilogy and numerous Final Fantasy games. 1st party content accounts for less 5% of the total the toatal library, but it can be notable games that helps hype hardware. It's also necessary to push a service Game Pass which people seem to enjoy. I am not sure what you even want. It seems like MS is trying to appeal to gamers in various ways people have requested. Maybe you just want to bitch? |
It seems to be the other way around tbh. You keep replying to me with the same thing over and over again completely ignoring every argument I provided to back my point. If you have already forgotten, my initial point was that currently the biggest obstacle for Microsoft is not thinking about international appeal of Xbox hardware, services, etc. In response you've brought up the same point you keep repeating over and over again: "The general consensus is MS needs to step up 1st party". This one. Well, don't want to disappoint you, it's actually might be the general consensus, but only on gaming forums. If MS fixes their first party delivering, it won't suddenly turn Xbox in a way more popular brand. On this one - "It's also necessary to push a service Game Pass which people seem to enjoy.It's also necessary to push a service Game Pass which people seem to enjoy", I've provided you a great example, where Microsoft decided to pull the plug on GamePass in making access to GamePass in Russia uneasy. So how will they push the service when they do something like this? Doesn't matter how many games will they have in the service 1 or 100, if people can't gain access to it just because they don't live in the US and Microsoft doesn't want to support other countries? And well, the last one. Something that kinda sums up everything I've said in my other posts. I will use a personal example to make it easier for you to understand. I live in Russia, I prefer to play on Xbox console, I spent around 80-90% of my gaming time on Xbox console. I'm not interested in PC gaming at all and almost everything that XGS released in the past two-three years doesn't really suit my gaming tastes. So, why should I care about MS being able to sell these XGS games to more people if it doesn't benefit me at all and comes at the expense of my experience with the platform that I like. While I can't claim for sure that this is something that is connected in any way, it's the exact same point that you keep bringing up. That I should somehow not care about my experience getting worse as long as MS sells more XGS games. I swear, there are a lot of Xbox gamers from not US/UK out there even on the internet who will totally agree with this one. P.S. I think that it would probably better to stop on this one. I've checked your profile and considering that you are from US, I doubt you will ever understand anything that I say. Because, first of all, you seem to enjoy every XGS game, second - you are treated like a first class citizen by MS, so it's hard for you to understand about the problems that Xbox brand has outside US/UK. You are basically living in the bubble where Xbox really competes with Playstation equally.
