You speak with your wallet. If you want more games to offer said "value", don't buy premium content and wait for it to be available on a catalog subscription. MS puts all its games on Game Pass anyway. If that were enough to satisfy the needs of gamers, the latter wouldn't turn towards premium content being offered on their own and other platforms. A stagnant subscriber count of 25 million across Xbox and PC ain't lookin' so hot

There's always a choice. Don't buy a PS5 and a copy of Spider-Man 2. Stick to the ever-growing list of first-party and third-party titles, including premiumfield, that MS offers day one in its Game Pass catalog
*yawn* I don't see Matt downplaying the handhelds by changing goal posts. Because its irrelevant. Because any person with some common sense knows the market and logistics of distribution are different. Infact, he even calls it an "exciting new segment". We all know how CerebralTiger would jump to tell us Steam Deck isn't doing well so obviously this isn't gonna sit well with him
But people like yourself had hoped to pay the premium price for Starfield on their PS5 but now they can't. Doesn't say anything about the excellent value Game Pass is providing to users who can reap the benefits
Ofcourse, now you wouldn't. But someone who single handedly drove the failed hype train for No Man's Sky and Scam CiTizen on PG is going to have a hard time telling us that Starfield doesn't interest him
No Man's Sky seamlessly lets you enter and exit a planet's atmosphere, as does Star CiTizen, even in its current alpha state. Borefield does not. Let that thought sink into the depths of someone who was disappointed by the lack of such a seamless experience in The Outer Worlds
FWIW I don't even own No Man's Sky or ever played it
Your hype train failed so miserably that one game you didn't even end up buying and the other is stuck in development hell as the devs YOU paid chill in their mansions and yachts
The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol
Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is
