Oooof, guess time will tell. Just kind of tired of all these rumors over the past month plus if they're true MS should just come out and say something (or if they're false). Although, I guess if they were false they definitely would have shot them down by now maybe... |
Same, I want them to just come out and say their plans now so people can decide what they want to do and we can just move on and talk about games again, Lol. Business talk is so tedious. Ultimately can't change anything and can't say for certain what will work/won't work or know their internal metrics. Honestly lately I'm a bit exhausted and seriously considering taking a long term break because I've been happier in my breaks, Lol.
I'll go where Game Pass is and if Game Pass doesn't exist in the future, I'll swap to PC/Steam.
Crom taking on Twitter again though, haha, I feel like Crom is always in the middle of these things.
If the Windows store is still up, I promise you the Xbox store is very, very far away from risk of closure dude. It’ll all co-exist.

Have people not been listening when they’ve been saying very publicly for a few years that essentially anyone who plays an Xbox game via any means they consider a member of the Xbox family? Hasn’t been solely about hardware for a while now. Shit it wild.

That’s a leap, but I agree that the topic on the whole shouldn’t be overlooked. It’s definitely notable, and newsworthy. I don’t know who is suggesting otherwise but it ain’t me m8

In spite of Xbox games being on GamePass PC and Xbox, they habitually make Steam top sellers at full price. Why wouldn’t they want to make money of games thereby reducing risk while at the same time being able to say “well, over here it’s basically free!”

They’re more successful at subscription models, for example. I think if your game is $0 on your platform, but $80 on a competitors that’s a pretty compelling value proposition. Dare I say advertisement for your platform.
