they killed gears killed halo killed fable now they’re killing themselves
They went woke
They make themselves broke
Got to love karma
It's sad. This stuff is taught in schools
When will we as a people say its failed
What killed both Halo and Gears Of War was hiring women as writers.
And they deserve it. This is coming from a Xbox fan
When you buy up everything but you have no idea what to do with it. May be these companies need to take a step back and stop buying up everything then tying actually creative peoples hands behind their back.
The strangest part is the psychology. Everyone from the console makers to game developers truly believe that by forcing "inclusion" into everything then they're gonna make more money than they did from the customers they pushed out. Their confusion is genuine. They now make everything for everyone, so why are sales collapsing? They don't understand that the people they're now pandering to never intended to be viable customers. Those people just wanted to get off on forcing their will onto everyone else.
No. The people heading the companies were promised by the people in charge they will be rewarded even if the company fails. And they obeyed because the actual people in charge can destroy you when you tell them no.
They dogma will be pushed at any cost.
@@dbsommers1 Ludicrous, paranoid, tenth-rate, incoherent babble.
Blackrock and Vanguard are calling the shots. They told the companies that if they didn't push the DEI then they were going to be bankrupted in response. They're doing this just to stay afloat a little longer.
Its not about money, they plan to slowly poison people mind to accept this woke trash. Our generations won't tolerate this junk but the future generation may not do the same. By 20 years, woke trash are everywhere except if other continent begin to rise for competiting in the market, if this happen then it will become the fall of western culture.
They are not making "everything for everyone" (especially not games).
They are making bs products featuring members of the progressive stack, and the main selling point is that they have waaahmuns and grape soda fans as protagonists.
The intended audience is one single guy - Larry F.
The biggest problem XBox has it it went WOKE. Woke characters, Etc.
So does Sony, Xbox has just followed the sh*** woke ideology.
so fire the woke devs?
1. Gamepass is stupid and has always been stupid; it lowers sales and devalues games. 2. Why are they closing smaller studios and trying to fire production and QA, two key groups of employees, instead of addressing their trash expensive studios that have failed, like 343 industries, whoever is doing gears of war, and whoever is making the trash new fable.
I'm not a CEO of any kind, but the idea of gamepass makes no financial sense
sell $300+ worth of games for $50 (or so) monthly subscription
how does that work?
does anyone at MS have a brain with these numbers?
Agreed. Their massive studios made Halo & gears of War worse, but those studios remain open while studios that actually made good games (smaller studios) get shut down. And MS could have sold these studios to keep the employees employed, but they would rather close them & lay-off all the employees just to prevent their competition from acquiring them. F'n pathetic.
it's stupid cause of it's price, if it just was 60 dollars a year then it be fine but nooo, they and their shills continue making it expensive.
You reap what you sow Microsoft, when you put identity politics and DEI ahead of your customers you deserve everything that’s happening to you right now. So I have no sympathy for them whatsoever because they’ve brought this upon themselves.
True. They should've learned their mistakes. Don't put ugly women in video games, and just listen to the consumers.
Reap*
not just that gamer pass is backfiring on them and and they keep putting everything on pc and now sony
But they didn’t sow anything… no actual games for Xbox and players.
@@DarkFay yeah cause they all go on pc
Buying Activision was a mistake!!!
At least Toys for Bob saw fit to go indie and escape unscathed.
Probably the biggest mistake they made in a long time if not ever.
CORRECTION! Allowing Microsoft to buy Activision/Blizzard was a mistake!
It NEVER should’ve been approved. Total monopoly BS!
Yup, the Activision purchase has now precipitated the cut of these great studios because they need to make their money back. This is the lowest Xbox morale has been since 2013. Phil Spencer has gone into hiding, should tell you all you need to know.
@@SteveJonesOwnsDSP Spencer went into witness protection lol
I believe the woke wokeness will be the nail in the woke coffin 😂.
Microsoft in league with the WEF: "YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND YOU WILL BE HAPPY!!"
Me: "I will not buy your crappy console and garbage streaming service. Then you won't be happy!"
When Phil Spencer bought Activision that was his Bob Iger moment
He's no better than a kid playing just video games than doing any real business.
Phil had been ruining Xbox since he took over.
@@deathtrooper2048 he’s been there too long. They should never have bought Activision.
UNFORTUNATELY MIROSOFT DISASTER.
well Blackrock wanted the deal to go through, since year over year they invaded the Activision shareholder ranks in a significant way. Govment has to bend the knee to Blackrock's banksters, since the banksters also control govment.
Firing sweet baby wouldn't fix xbox as Microsoft over is a super woke company
🤔 they need 2 go back to the way they did games for the OG Xbox and the 360 - a lot of them games r still great to play
Yes, most of the company is full of activists that are dug in.
@@Iam-still-noone gears of war 2 and halo 3 were their best games
3 failed halo games. 343 fine.
One cheap game in hi fi. Tango you gotta go
So halo is a dead franchise
Microsoft is no better/different than Electronic Arts themselves. Change my mind.
Not as bad
Microsoft: We need more games like Hi Fi Rush so we can close the studio down......
If this results in the XBox demise think I’ll go to PlayStation?
Let’s see
-Data breaches
-Censorship
-Trying to force PSN’s on games
Yeah, F that and F Sony.
PCMR is the way
I'll keep 360 and one no need for new consoles anymore
So only Nintendo and PC games are left
@@Bludgeta9001 PCMR = owning nothing. Not that I'm stoked about what Sony's been up to for the last several years either.
Seems like PC or Steamdeck (alike) is the only future for gaming.
Maybe the switch 2 too.
The name is Bond, DEI Bond
Good evening DEI Bond for I am Failure The Finger.
FAFO, former Microsoft fan, as soon as they went woke, I stopped spending.
It’s as simple as that. Oh well.
@@jonpeacock3016 yep 👍 I win
maybe they should do away with DEI and stop working with SBI, they brought that shit on themselves, Sony isn't far from falling apart, they are doing the same damn thing with DEI and SBI, and Nintendo censoring Mario games, FFS what's there to censor in a Mario game, a game crash is coming.
Please Gabe Newell live forever and never sell.
You reckon Steam will be trash after Gabe leaves? I never actually thought about it. It could!
@@elhazthorn918I think it might. Marvel went downhill the *second* Stan Lee died. They didn't even wait till he was in the ground.
No evil within no dishonored no hi fi Rush too bad Microsoft
They still own the ips people its just delusional
@@BenelopeAlmendra they can't do anything with all these IPs they are sitting on, they completely lack vision, creativity and heart
Evil Within may still happen, just under a new studio.
@@sincerelynotme3522 i hope so
@@BenelopeAlmendra How so?
Sony: "man, we had the worst screw up this month"
Microsoft: "hold my controller"
Griffin Gaming said it best, Microsoft is now like the Disney of gaming. They have no creativity or imagination. All they can do is just buy new IP to mine. All Microsoft has brought to the gaming industry is its money!
They never had any creativity. Even Halo was originally going to be on Mac computers until Bungie sold out to them.
they started out with a bought Operating System, sold it to IBM, and wriggled so they could sell it with minor changes to others.
The same happened over and over when they started having success.. they simpliy tried to copy Apple's OS and still failed while charging premiums..
now they have tried do the same with gaming.. their og xbox was slated against sony , sega and nintendo and only sega caved in..
now gamepass, which should be their saving grace, turns out to be a hollow facade.. once again..
history repeats itself because the players may change, but the game stays the same..
Isn't Activision the disney of gaming
Yet the economy is the best ever! 🤣😂
Maybe Xbox needs to change their mind about closing the 360 Marketplace.
Who need a console to tell us what we can play and speak with a $70 price tag on games. They can ban us at any moment and lost all purchased games.
I'm sad that it took this for people to final see what a snake good ol Phil Spencer is.
well it was a fuck up too big to ignore.
Play stupid games and win stupid prizes.
Like HALO
@@faze2819 I wish I could argue against that. Bummer.
All of the problems at Xbox stem from DEI. Wokeism kills everything.
How long before these companies realize sub services tend to peak out at some point? How about Microsoft and Sony drop the requirement to play online? Why are we still doing that in 2024?
"No! i want infinite growth with infinite money glitch surely it exist IRL right"
If there is any justice in the world 343 will be one of the dev teams dissolved
Oh I agree
Bungie was peak Halo. Remember Reach
I like Infinite, but I feel the Halo franchise could be better under almost anybody else with a brain.
Microsoy and Soyny are really racing to see how much they can cut ties with their fans huh?
glad i kept my 360 and all my games at least i can still play alot of games that are still fun and give decent content
What were you thinking, Microsoft? Oh, wait...
Too bad the "Leadership" that made this stupid decisions, (like killing Halo.) won't be getting laid off. Funny how underlings and studios get canned but none of the executives get a boot.
Xbox is an absolute mess. This year may be the biggest year in terms of video game studios getting faced with layoffs and shutdowns from these big corporations via Microsoft and Sony.
It's freaking hilarious.
Literally everything we said would happen is happening in High Definition 4k.
Just like how we predicted politics, everything will go downhill with these idiotic policies.
You get what you deserve.
You get what you voted for.
It's a needed adjustment, one that many big companies will face in the near future. It's one thing to be idealistic, but what was being forgotten is that without profits, you can't pay for it. So many big companies are so bloated with useless departments, useless people and useless policies (HR/DEI being ground zero for most of this) that they're now toppling over from the weight.
MS is more concerned about their forced implementation of AI bots than anything else ATM
So they haven’t learned anything from the RARE disaster
Nope.
Nada
Sea of Thieves has 10s millions of players and is the #1 game on PS5 right now as well.
Not my thing at all, but it’s generating 10s of millions on revenue.
@@kaikiske7436they need hundreds of millions to not see cuts
@@lk5388 we’ll see. Rare hasn’t done anything for 20 years and haven’t had cuts.
Sounds like the studios that just got closed was a Zenimax / Bethesda decision. Obviously MS HQ was in on it, and told them to tighten the belt, but the decision on which teams got cut, and who will be rolled into other groups was made by Bethesda
These individual companies under the Microsoft Xbox banner still all have their own individual leadership and management, and their own budgets.
Microsoft Xbox at deaths door
So dose that mean that the rumours that were present somewhere between January and March of this year about Xbox, actually considering abandoning the console market and becoming the Netflix of gaming or was it equivalent to steam or something to do with? They want to become a streaming service for gaming and completely abandoned the console market.
@@McDonnellDouglasMD-- look at the usetube, now suddenly forcing streamed games on you. the failed onlive console is getting pushed hard as an online service industry now.
On the HW side it doesn't help that they can't implement HDMI-CEC so people with newer TV with Soundbars can't enjoy their TV set as it should be.
Let's face it, M$ has been diversity hiring for too long and this came and bit them in the ass, and nothing of value will be lost.
GOD! I really miss Balmer as CEO.
Eventually they'll force you to tip them for game devs - who will end up on the streets while the big CEO keeps the tip.
Microsoft claiming that they support their game Devs Independence is utter BS. Most of these studios they closed were single player game Developers. Microsoft buys them and all of a sudden they are making On-line only games as a service videogames. Does that sound like "Independence" to you? No, Microsoft forced these companies to make rushed On-line only games so that MS could push their game pass subscription service and then LIED about it.
The main problem in my opinion is Xbox Game Pass, it is great value for the consumer but a terrible business model for the game studios.
Game Pass and its consequences have been a disaster for Microsoft Game Studios.
sweet baby death kiss doesn't discriminate, it can kiss itself to death.
I dropped Game Pass a few weeks ago and glad I did.
Same here
Get woke go broke is hitting every entertainment company. Every single one, and they will Never admit it.
We are in a recession right now. Everyone is seeing revenue drop. It would be like saying we lost some revenue in 2009
I don’t like PlayStation either. My Xbox is just used now for RUclips and prime. My Nintendo switch gets used daily, my wii/gamecube gets used daily.
Microsoft is the Disney of the gaming world, and it's indescribably satisfying to see both begin to go down in flames as their customers all get fed-up. People watch entertainment to be entertained. They play games to have fun. They look at art because they want to be moved by something beautiful. To quote uncle Walt: "We don't make movies to make money; we make money to make movies." Great advice from one of the greatest businessmen and entertainers of all time. A sentiment these corpos have forgotten.
Nintendo are fine when being Japanese as their roots.
Yeah, they're like 2nd best but they're also really anti-consumer.
@@roflBeckNot as much as Wokeny or Microfag, Nintendo is coherent with its anti emulator politic.
Microsoft bought Rare and decided to have them make almost only Kinect games. I expected this.
This is definitely the decisions of the heads of Microsoft not the leaders of xbox that would explain the mixed messages they've been sending........if they didn't ask for more money to expand they wouldn't have Microsoft management looking for more larger profits
I believe Bob Iger calls this, "IP mining."
They could become based and denounce woke delusion. This would change or slow the trajectory.
Probably slow it down if anything. These companies are known to be fickle after having a little "based" moment. They never really learn a thing and keep sailing on a sinking ship.
I've always been a PlayStation kind of guy, and when it comes to PlayStation vs Xbox this isn't exactly how I wanted PlayStation to win. Then again it might be more of a tie with how things are going and not the good kind.
Remember when we never thought we’d see sonic on a Nintendo console??
I wouldn't be surprised if part of this is the damage they did with DRMbox one
12 years ago dawg.
Only crazy people are still holding on to that, which never actually even took effect.
I don't think they'll stop making consoles personally. Microsoft has always had these problems since OG Xbox days, everyone can just now sees it now, Halo wasn't the only original Xbox IP but was the only surviving one. Microsoft even had their long forgotten OG Xbox Japanese mascot made by various former Sega devs at the time which surprise surprise was also quickly forgotten about. They've never been good at breaking into the Japanese market or building IPs, always been grossly incompetent at branding. The successes they have done have seemingly always been flukes to me because they've never really managed to capitalize on whatever good results/decisions they have made.
If Microsoft makes another game console. I have a huge feeling that no one will want to buy one. Let's face it. Microsoft should just leave the gaming industry forever and go back to making computer software. Unless they really really REALLY change up their game, fire all those who are responsible for these damaging decisions, rehire those who unfairly lost their game jobs and prove that they deeply and truly care about the gaming industry and gamers. And maybe. Just maybe win back our trust for XBOX
Subscription services is never sustainable for AAA releases. It’s like skipping blockbuster movies like Avengers from the cinema and straight to streaming, it will not generate money for that movie!
If these greedy f'n companies want to make money, stop charging so much for consoles and games. And get rid of executives in the company. They're literally the biggest waste of money in most companies
How could they charge 70 billion dollars? And how did they AGREE to pay that nonsensical amount? Just watched a video that Finland bought a 1/3rd of Uruguay's land and developed a forestry, pulp manufacturing system and it only cost them a total of 3 billion dollars!!?? How does this gaming buyout charge 70 BILLION DOLLARS!?
I'd like to know who/where that 70B went to, shareholders? investors? paid over time?
that's a lot of money that is not setting any alarm bells
@@XENOS_Indie_Game_Dev for real. 70 billion dollars is so much more money than most of us can wrap our heads around and it seems pretty ridiculous someone would pay all that and not see a huge wave of gaming flourishing from it all. Otherwise, then what was the point of buying them out? Xbox already had almost all these games available on their platform.. Their approach makes ZERO sense..
Just keep all these studios going that don’t make money. Great business decision.
I wonder if Microsoft will finally de-wokify after this humiliation.
Nope
I really don't think you guys understand, its not just microsoft, it's every AAA company right now.
Microsoft, Sony, Ubisoft, EA, etc.
All of them are going through the woodchipper due to their DEI and unorginality focuses, all in the name of making less risky decisions.
And the developers are the ones paying the price.
Bingo but it also goes deeper than that. This is all being done intentionally everything is collapseing as planned
Why buy all those studio, and have no game plan to boost there idea on future plans. Instead went the opposite. What a waste.
They took a page from Sony. No games = More money
If they would bring back an emphasis on physical media and quit censoring I would gladly get back into consoles again
Microsoft hasn’t done anything noteworthy in Phil Spencer’s entire tenure. They went from being the top with the 360 to him and last place
Thank heaven Microsoft never acquired Sega, as rumors suggested at one point.
Microsoft becoming what happened to Sega
They need to fix Windows 11 too, they now trying to force bit locker on newer installs or refreshs.
I miss the xbox 360 days that was the era Xbox was at it peak in my opinion
Xbox (aka Microsoft) = dead
Playstation (aka Sony) = yeah, no thanks.
Nintendo = Is becoming more popular despite some stupid DEI decisions (like Wokemon Go. Yes, it wasn't Nintendo, but they have the power to stop the avatar changes and didn't do anything)
PC games = Has many good games as long as you avoid the AAA companies. Mods can also remove some DEI or censorship bs
Did I miss something?
Nintendo has no involvement with Pokemon Go and makes little money from it. They mentioned this when their stock surged after its initial release.
Emulators/retro consoles = No one else nor any woke/greedy company can ever ruin your physical games with shady updates.
@roykiefer-tr1dr yes I have been against the whole download your game trend it is very stupid. I will never want to get rid of disc's then the company can ask for more money just give me a hard copy of my game and FO. Stop buying digital games.
@@roykiefer-tr1druntil the non-zero chance that the emulator owners somehow prevent certain games from being played on them.
whats DEI ?
Xbox does have the resources because Microsoft is a 3 trillion dollar company they don't want no make great gaming experience s anymore only interested in lowering costs as much as possible and making big budget AAA live service garbage they for some reason think low budget games don't sell enough Even though Palword the most downloaded game of the year was only possible because it was on gamepass
Buying Activision was probably the dumbest thing that they ever did. They were trying to show off their balls sack by strutting around and throwing the money saying that I can buy it but it is a backfiring on them.
instead of just buying Activision they should’ve nurtured and supported the studios that they already had. I mean honestly, but Bethesda was enough. They had like one of the best companies out there they didn’t need Activision, and honestly nowadays, who gives a fuck about Call of Duty®.
Gamepass has become to expensive raising the prices was a bad call. Ps buying to many studios wasn't a good Idea.
Why is greta even there
This is what hapoens when corporations fail to understand human interests and motivations amd how that factors into their projections, all because _corporations are not people!_
Makes you wonder who, or _what,_ is actually runnin these businesses.
So it's literally what Embracer Group is going though.
Holyshit.
If Halo goes to PlayStation then that will be the death of Xbox.
I think you're right, they just bought the studios to get the games libraries on Game Pass. Now they're liquidating all the studios.
Well they gotta pay for those Activision/Blizzard IPs somehow.
What? You though they bought game studios to make games? Hahahaha!
What they need to do is make a lot more woke stuff… that will help!!
For roughly the same cost of a gaming console you can build a PC which is equal or often better in performance.
Xbox needs a new mascot a new line of games. Sony can always reinvent itself you can have a new main character which it needs
Between Philnoccio Spender and Satia Nutella the next gen Xbox will be the X-Tinct!!!
Hi-Fi Rush was on sale (again) on PS5, so I bought it. It's a fun game and I can already tell it was worth buying. Real mistake by Microsoft to close that studio. You build on IPs like that, not cut them off at the knees.
How do you feel about the woke overtones? Or does that not matter?
@@kaikiske7436 He's a normie
Xbox might be the next Sega..they'll get out of the console game and just develop games and sell ips to Nintendo & Sony
I’ve already dropped bring multiplatform yo be PC only, and I’m glad I did.
Just imagine in the age of Digital games and online services, after the crash there will be little in the way of usable media if you didn't already have it downloaded.
Since often boxed versions are just a download key finding a physical copy of anything you liked will be rare and even more expensive.
I remember when I got talked into getting game pass, didn't like it, didn't want it. But a friend of mine wanted to play a game I wouldn't buy. "Oh come on it's on Game pass. It's only 1$ for the starting month." Welp I broke down, got it. Regretted it and then I couldn't even get my old year subscription back. Instead of getting a guaranteed 60$ a year they wanted to try charging me 15 every month or whatever it costs... Yeah I stopped playing Xbox because I don't have my yearly live anymore.
Xbox is that small dog running and screaming, while the 2 big dogs, Nintendo and Sony are fighting.
Is funny. No one knew xbox was firing Tango but now everyone knows everything Xbox is gonna do. Phil spencer already said there is going to be a new xbox console
Is DEI really that lucrative? Why do all these corporate types just but into it hook line and sinker? Or is it that they actually believe the messaging? Someone please explain this insanity.
I just cancelled my Game Pass because I don't play modern games much. I love the backwards compatibility and I'll play my favorites like Fable, original Prey and Unreal Championship: Liandri Conflict. No micro transactions, no live service and everything is on my discs.
Considering the "quality" of Bethesda titles the past decade or so, anyone who works in "Quality Assurance" for Zenimax probably should be fired, lol.
I love my switch even more now
Maybe they'll start selling gaming PCs in stead of consoles in the future.
All the cash from Windows, Excel, Word and PowerPoint should have been returned to shareholders not gaming consols
My Xbox series x died about 14 months after I bought it. I barely played the thing. Maybe a total of 100 hours. What a piece of crap
LoL..liar
@@spiked_palm3134he’s not mine did the same thing after few months of barely playing it mine keeps getting start up error codes and shuts its self down I can’t play certain games other wise it shuts off.
hubris and pride are often large before the aftermath and karma comes larger. xbox goes, soon will sony too.
Xbox has slowly become this generation's SEGA.
