Can someone explain their business strategy to me? They spend this huge amount of money to buy multiple studios and it seemingly did fucking nothing.
what oyu mean did nothing? they wanted to ips and got them. studios aren't worth shit
>>683720884Their business strategy is to get everyone addicted to Game Pass, then transition to cloud gaming, creating a massive gap in the cloud business. It's important to note that Phil Spencer always mentions xCloud alongside Game Pass. Once people have easy access to Game Pass, transitioning to cloud gaming becomes very easy. Microsoft has an overwhelming advantage in the cloud business, and it's worth noting that Sony tried to block the acquisition of Activision Blizzard citing cloud gaming as a reason. That's why they no longer care about platform exclusives. However, cloud gaming is just not 'realized' yet.
They bought the studios to put out games, You do know that it takes years to develop a game right?
>>683720884The goal is to get game pass on everything they can without needing a console. No losses on console sales makes Jews happy
>>683721584They bought Bethesda in 2021, why has New Vegas 2 not been announced yet?
>>683722382How the fuck should I know?
>>683720884They're trying to orient the market so that shareholders look at their company and believe that they possess a marketshare that can't be ignored so that they have an avenue to push their influence through into whatever is the next big thing.Consoles are worthless for this, shareholders know that infinite growth for console ownership was a myth.Games are worthless for this, shareholders know that infinite returns on games was a myth.The only way forward is to become king of "wow, it's fucking nothing" mountain by playing katamari damacy with IP and placing everything into a stable holding pattern.
