This isn't the first time I've seen this weird dichotomy articulated. So it's either a super expensive story-driven game or a games-as-a-service multiplayer title?

Does Microsoft realize you can make a single-player game with a modest budget and without cinematic pretensions?

State of Decay 2, Super Lucky Tale and Or.

Three games that will be published by MS and fit your description.

It sure doesn't fit Microsoft's description in light of this recent interview.
