Well when you are using pretty bad takes against one company while ignoring others clearly people are going to point out your bad takes and let you know how your fav company isnt much different. SvennoJ said:
There's a lot of hypocrisy in the console wars. When 'your' side does crappy stuff on their platform, it's all fine, just business. Or never as bad as a competing business. You can never discuss MS, Sony or Nintendo alone, and if that's not enough, drag Google Amazon and Apple into it as well.
Microsoft still does it with the way they tie Edge further and further into the Windows OS and forcing people to use over encompassing MS accounts to use Windows and their games. |
Are you really agreeing with his bad takes here?. |
Not 100% nor 0%. But it's impossible to discuss anything since fingers always start pointing in different directions. He's right this thread started about Microsoft, but everything gets countered with, but Sony, but Google, but Apple, that's in the past, and so on.
The idea that somehow MS having Acti/Blizz/King is somehow better instead of Sony, Google or Apple is not something I agree with nor really relevant to the question. Just a smokescreen to avoid talking about what the consequences can be.
I can see some parallels between GoG to how CP2077 ended up, and Gamepass and the Halo Infinite mess up. Now grow gamepass further and add a lot more IPs, yeah I'm slightly worried about this acquisition. Personally I don't have much stake in it anyway, Blizzard and Activision have been unwelcome in my house for a long time now. So imo, that 69 billion is better spend elsewhere! But for MS it's a good deal, lot of old stuff to throw on gamepass including new cash cows, while getting an inroad to mobile gaming to spread gamepass there.
Anyway you know how fond I am of subscriptions, mobile gaming and streaming, not at all. MS is heading away from my interests. |
Have you read the OP?. He gave people the right to bring other companys into the question. Your taking a bad take from ConservagameR who is using qa case thats around 20 years old to try make his point and failing badly at even doing that but yet he or you it seems dont want to hear about stuff more recent from other companys. If your going to pass judgement on one you might as well pass it on them all your fav company should not be excluded..
And to try say since Halo Inf and CP2077 that wasnt even in a sub service turned out means all games will be half baked is very silly on your behalf and a bad argument to make unless you have prove to show your right something you dont have as many games launch on PS/XB/Nin and Pc platforms thqats not in a sub service and needs patches after the fact to fix them. But where your argument falls very short here is plenty of users of XB gamepass can point out all the games thats on the service that doesnt have the problems you are trying to paint. Really you shouldnt be following bad takes.
