Like how XB One TV and Kinect helped XB owners?

At least AB is core gaming related, you have to give them that, but it's not being marketed as it usually would. Some of it is becoming exclusive, and it's all mixed in with a brand new type of service. While it wasn't an immediate failure like XB One was at launch, Game Pass is also a far larger move and requires a much larger audience to make it a success. It might eventually become worth it, but to say it's definitely worth it now is being awfully generous. If it doesn't work out in the end, what then for XB owners? Is a seemingly worthy advantage now still and advantage if it were to lead to a disadvantage later?

You do know business make investment.  As the term goes, if you are scared, go to church.  Xbox was an investment just like GP.  I am not sure I understand your position.  Everything these companies there are some form of risk.  

Bethedsa and Blizz/Acti are strong investments no matter where GP is today or 10 years from today because those companies are profitable and have successful products.  So what exactly is your opinion because I am kind of confused.  Are you saying Xbox owners need to fear that GP could fail and what?  What exactly is it that Xbox owners need to fear.

If you're scared, go to church, said the company who accidentally, yet knowingly, dropped a billion dollars and didn't bother to pick it up.

That MS seems to be straying from XB owners.

With XB One it was the console will become an interactive TV media box, plus it'll also still play some games.

Now it's an XB console is only partially necessary because Game Pass isn't everywhere yet.

In the near future it'll be you don't even need an XB console at all.

The final step is no longer making XB hardware, and this step could come with or without Game Pass becoming successful.
