Your obviously putting words in my mouth and twisting things to suit your logic.

Low quality, low budget, Sega IP games, could make great sense for gamepass (its got alot of smaller budget, 60 meta type games), and its set to make them lots of profits. Thats not a "bad for MS buy decision" but instead a smart money move.

you literally said:

"If Sega is looking to sell.... maybe start with Atlus, and give Sony (or nintendo) a shot?

Atlus is legit the best part of sega these days, and its strengths, is in game types that dont appeal to most american xbox users.
(how well would SMT & Persona sell on xbox? not well I think, and its their main strength, games like that)

MS can have the rest, old sega IP's basically arnt worth much these days.
MS could spit out of bunch of low quality budget, Sega IP games for gamepass with it."

The bolded parts are the point I was trying to show that you were making. It's not even putting words in your mouth, mate. You pretty much claimed that Atlus is Sega's best, and that Sony should get a shot at buying them, while MS can be left with the lesser IP's, to dump onto Gamepass (and I know how you view Gamepass anyway, so it makes it sound even lesser quality when you lump in "old IP's no one cares about".

Why not let MS actually aquire a Japanese studio?. I've noticed a lot of you on here, the extreme Jap studio fans, do not like the West ever touching anything Japanese, but when it comes to the Japanese touching Western stuff, that's somehow A-okay? (which screams xenophobia).

MS can do fine with high end IP's as well?. There's no rule stating that they can't, so why not let them have a proper shot as well?.

"Why not let MS actually aquire a Japanese studio?"

because atlus deservers better? (MS will screw it up, and I like atlus games)
because I dont plan on buying a xbox (again, the fanbase of atlus games, are on PS+Nintendo side)

Basically just 0 faith, that MS doesnt mess it up, or force them to do things that arnt playing to their strengths (turn based story driven rpgs).
And that even if MS doesnt, and they somehow make a decent game for xbox thats exclusive from atlus..... it sells like dirt (fanbase issue) and next game is something "typical" (not atlus strengths) and then its closed down or just forevermore some low quality output of game maker. When it could instead just be a great RPG studio, makeing games as it does (SMT & Persona).

Atlus needs to stay away from MS.


basically.... you know that "where we going PapaEA?" meme?
Its like that... just it would be MS and Atlus.
