| Ryuu96 said: One thing that set MS apart from Sony too was their focus on variety, AAA-AA-A, Game Pass allowed creativity and fun smaller projects, niche projects, etc. While Sony was pushing into focusing solely on AAA cinematic blockbusters and gutting everything else. Phil said Xbox can't just be PlayStation but green but that's exactly what they're doing with this move. |
Don't know if Phil himself has changed course, or if he is being overrode by the bean counters like CFO Amy Hood. Either way, seems like the focus is going to be on the highest selling IP moving forward, meaning CoD, Halo, Forza, Gears, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Doom mainly. Some mid-tier projects may be safe, but bottom tier passion projects like HiFi and Grounded and Pentiment are clearly dead at Xbox, I just can't see Xbox taking a chance on passion/pet projects with lower sales potential, not with the Gamepass safety blanket no longer in place.
