Thursday doesnt really matter? It won't magically bring my friends back to Xbox and Xbox won't suddenly care about customers in Europe.

They did a solid job in convincing me not to further invest in their ecosystem these last couple of years. I was just too dense to see it, and kept believing in unicorns and rainbows.

Anything they'll say this Thursday I'll take with a grain of salt. So many empty promises.

Let me help you here, nothing MS is going to say on Thursday will have any real meaning one way or the other.  You either like what is coming to the Xbox within the next few years from what they have announced or you do not.  Thursday podcast is not going to change anyone minds to stay, leave or purchase an Xbox.  What sells any console is their AAA exclusive games, whether first, second or 3rd party.  Those dynamics isn't going to change no matter how many games from MS goes multi.  From the looks of it, there is no need to even watch it because if all that they will report is Hi Fi Rush and Pentiment then its all a nothing burger.  No one is buying an Xbox for those games and no one will be buying an Xbox in the future for AA and service games.  MS big hitters still have to hit hard as they always needed to.

Most of it is annouced a few years already and still not released so that is not really a helping argument. The thing is, he is like me someone from the Benelux and Xbox was never really kind to us,  I still have to change my region otherwise I will get my games only in German or French and thats a dick move especially when Sony solved that issue almost 20 years ago.  

Anyway finished my MS rewards and got:

Duke Nukem Forever
Sid Meier's Pirates
Monster Boy and the cursed Kingdom
Mars: War Logs
Killer Is Dead
Red Faction II
Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap
Persona 4 Golden
Tomb Raider Remastered Trilogy
