It looks exactly the same and has gameplay. Halo Infinite | Multiplayer Overview - YouTube You said, MS poorly manages their franchises besides Forza. Is Age of Empires and Flight Sim not their franchises? MS still has to work with these 3rd party developers just like if they were 1st party because it is their IP's afterall. Psychonauts 2 was delayed so they could add more content to the game and keep polishing it, now we are going to be getting a better game because of it. I would say that was a good call my MS management. |
You could 100% make that argument.
Recently from Xbox we've seen an unbelievable number or delays for a poor product in Crackdown 3, a failed $75 million dollar Fable project, one of the strangest fiascos ever with their biggest franchise in the Halo:Infinite reveal, the cancellation of Scalebound, Sea of Thieves launching with a lack of content, Halo: The master chief collection launching with matchmaking issues, and now Everwild?
This is not to say there isn't plenty of other developers with issues (case in point CD Projekt Red) but MS studios have definitely had a lot of problems in the past few years with delays, post-launch issues, and studios and projects being canned.
I would also argue, because he said 'Xbox is being mismanaged' that their advertising approach has been sub-par for the Series X/S, and obviously their entire marketing/design approach to the Xbox One console.
