If MS fixes their lack of exclusives they would be in a really nice position

If you happen to be a fan of all the games you mentioned, it may not be a bad year for XBO owners. But people have different taste, and from my perspective it looks a lot slower this year than previous years, yeah. Though perhaps most importantly XBO still gets most of the third party support.
And it does a lot of things right, such as BC. But I think ultimately they have a branding issue worldwide that is not overcome easily. Perhaps even impossible, unless Sony screw up and leave a spot vacant.

This has been a really bad year for MS exclusives made to look much worse because Sony started the year with Horizon, GR2, and The Show.

Don't forget the "niche crap" as well.

Heck, even Dragon Quest Builders (a late 2016 game) managed to sell over a million.
