Lets look back to the very start of the year.
After Microsofts record-breaking acquisition of Activision Blizzard King,it laid off 1,900 employees.
Immediately, the cracks and unsustainability of its strategy were showing.
In todays world, games cost alotto make.
Spider-Man 2 ran up a bill of $315 million.
But with Game Pass taking away sales, those expensive games are suddenly making a lot less money.
Ultimately, this makes an ordinary dud a catastrophic failure.
Even Microsoft is reckoning with what it has created.
Game Pass costs a lot to run.
Launched in 2020 in conjunction with the Xbox Series S digital-only console, the Series X is the disc version of Microsoft’s premier gaming platform.
And its losing sales on its own games from launching them on Game Pass too.
I dont see a future with Xbox at this rate, so whats the point in sticking around?
Im bowing out early.
