So If MS gets a succesfull game as service they will make old single player niche games? Yes that makes perfect sense.

For rare's sake and all the fans that are hoping for some revival of old rare game, you better hope sea of thieves fails, or else they will be stuck on that single game for ever.

No. Gamers want good games in general. Hoping for a game to fail for the assumption of older games to be revived is stupid. 

This is an industry with thousands of employees. KI was a revival and wasnt made by Rare. Also nothing is stopping MS from using a small team at Rare to monitor Sea of Thieves while they continue to innovate and create.

Id rather play an amazing game now than a bad one in hope of a revival of an older game.

If anything, if Rare succeeds with Sea of Thieves than it gives confidants to the brand and there owners to create more, not the other way around. Thats silly.

If Sea of Thieves fails, it has more of a chance of Rare being absorbed rather than MS giving them more freedom.

Yea you are right, wanting a game to fail is not gona help anything. Definetly wont give rare more freedom. Unless is a game like battlefront, thats something that everyone can agree that must fail so publishers stop pushing greedy microtransations on us. 

What I dont agree with you is about suport to games we want to see more off. Even if the game is not as good, if is going in the direction we would like I say we suport it, even if it means buying a game we dont like very much. We have to vote with our wallets and if there is money in that direction then more devs would risk venturing in that direction. Then maybe a good game will come that we will like.

I know it sound dificult to say buy a crappy game now in hopes of a good game maybe coming, but such is the position we are in. Games as service, online multyplayers, microtransactions, loot boxes, preorder bonuses, season passess, all this garbage was voted by consumers when they purchased it in masses wich led devs to keep at it. While it will not stop, we can at least push a little in the direction we want by buying some iffy games.
