Game Pass saved Xbox but even if they shut it down 2 years ago we would be going through the exact same issues as we are right now, issues which aren't even exclusive to Xbox, the entire industry is a mess right now, Game Pass has nothing to do with the current issues and Hi-Fi Rush would have underperformed with or without it, as it did on PlayStation and Steam.

Activision just made Microsoft desire more, if you see Activision with 30-40% profit margins then you look at XGS/Bethesda with less than 10%, as a money dude you're going to think "Why can ABK do it but we can't? What do we need to change?" and they'd be asking those questions even if Game Pass didn't exist because even without Game Pass, XGS/Zenimax won't have anywhere close to ABK's profit margins.

Not even Sony does who have like double the amount of consoles sold as Xbox and multi-million selling IPs on the regular.

I bet the CFO of Xbox, Tim Stuart, was salivating when he saw ABK's profit margins lol
