If they think this is what people will seriously think then they are so incredibly out of touch that its not even funny.

When have discs been affordable in the last decade plus? Also you can also play discs on multiple devices you already own, what happened to in home streaming? God I hate corpo marketing speak so much.

The controller one also says rechargable battery as if that's something they just added. The whole swappable battery thing is retarded regardless as its literally what the 360 had, that they then removed with the xbone.

I don't like discs and most of my library is digital.

I have 0 fucking idea why you would launch a console without a disc tray. Like is it that hard to just do what Valve/Sony does and just try and value add digital items and still have a disc tray? Christ it's embarassing.

Microsoft doesn't seem to have a real clear vision on this and that roadmap is hilarious to compare to what we know today - in terms of how behind they are. They 100% need to get someone under Phil Spencer who can tard wrangle all of the various Xbox Game Studios into actual producing games that aren't complete garbage and they need to do it like 4 years ago.

That horseshit died down once the actual game came out. Since then, it sold 5 or 6 million copies, plus dlc. For Czechia that's a ton, and Embracer's hurting for well performing studios.

Yeah, and that's with the complete review blackout they got thanks to the AMA where the dev mocked the idea of black people in 1400's rural Bohemia. I just hope Embracer didn't move any of the Volition devs over there to "help" after SR bombed...

I think this really just shows how corporate and out-of-touch MS has gotten, and I think its safe to say the executives will learn absolutely nothing from the relentless mockery the Internet will be giving them.

I'm aware, but never to this degree. This is so bad they'd be toppled like Xerox was if not for their vise-like control of the PC ecosystem with Windows and Office. Their gaming division is going to die an ignominious and unmourned death and MS will wonder how it happened, clueless about every single bad step they made along the way.

No, Microsoft has always been a scummy corporate piece of shit company from the very beginning and I really can't understand why anyone thinks they've ever been anything but that. I'm also not sure why anyone finds any of this leaked shit really all that surprising most of it seems like pretty much what you'd expect from Microsoft.

To be very honest, their gaming division always seemed like a hair step away from disaster at all times since the XBox 360. Anyone remember the disaster that was Kinect? I don't think that ever made money. They were extremely fortunate to land HALO, GOW and a few other games as XBox flagships that carried the XBox brand in the western market through the OG XBox and 360 era, but of course they drove every good franchise they had into the ground.

That is exactly my point. They made a ton of bad decisions but somehow could make a good one every now and then to keep them treading water. Now they're just doubling down on their prior incompetence to the point where a retard choosing things at random would be more likely to make a smarter choice than them.

I haven't bought any of their stuff late, but even with the Legacy of the Void release of StarCraft 2; if you bought the physical box, they still gave you a disc. Granted they also told you to just fucking input the key on Battlenet and download it from there, but still, they gave you a disc, if only just because.
 
It's still funny how hard they fucked up Live Arcade going into the Xbox One era. Seems like every single marketplace that gets a reputation for 99c sales gets fucked over by corporate in short order, from XBLA to Audible to Unity's asset store.

South Park : TFBW pretty much nailed it in the opening segment:

IIRC, that bar moves like halfway during the entirety of the game if you come back and check on it.

You know those dumb games that Nintendo always has a drip feed of? Those games that "real gamers" make fun of? Maybe Microsoft needs more releases like Part Time UFO or Kirby's Dream Buffet (HAL Labs, a great second party dev and the model for how it should be done) every few months to keep your fans playing games and to keep your developers sharp. Microsoft needs some smaller, regular release types of games (of good quality) to fill these holes and buy time.

M$ has forgotten the eternal directive of their emissary from the Booze Dimension:


DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS
 
I can't believe these kikes have the gall to still sell Series X at 500 dollars 4 fucking years into its lifespan, the Xbox 360 was going for 300 dollars by 2009 and the Xbox One was also going for 300 in 2017.

Sums up xbox one and series x thus far. Can buy all the studios you want but it doesn't matter if your not going to do anything with them. I imagine most ips they get from blizz/activsion will be in dev hell and shelved indefinitely.

Between Sony having no games for the PS5 for three years and Microsoft buying studios and having nothing materialize for the Xbox Series X, this might be the biggest shitshow of a gaming generation so far. Even the 7th gen hardware issues were eventually solved by this time into that gen and there were actual exclusives to tilt you either towards the PS3 or Xbox 360.

They aren't out of touch, they know exactly what they're doing.

Cutting out the drive forces everyone to use their store, they automatically get their 30% cut, but that's not enough. They no longer require distribution channels for physical media. That's thousands of workers (Human Resources, aka slaves) that no longer need to build localization pamphlets, perform various logistics duties, bribe local politics, verify packaging adheres to local standards, buy shelf space and advertising, and keep the beauraucracy away with BS litigation when the need arises. And to top it all off, they now can apply for carbon reduction handoff from the Feds, create carbon credits since there's no physical packaging, and leverage those credits for more 0% interest loans with their amazing credit rating.

This isn't some out of touch boomer. These faggots know that the best way to ensure guaranteed quarterly growth for years on end, is to control the source of growth, the sheep who buy these consoles every refresh. They know exactly what they're doing, and they're doing it with eyes wide open.

I still remember back in 2014-2015 when Platinum Games' Scalebound was the next hyped thing for the Shitbox. The cancellation of it gave players a lost hope for the console. Combine this with the utterly retarded Xbox One release (TV, TV, TEEVEE) that ruined its reputation, the release of Bloodborne the next year and the awful reviews of Halo 5 sealed the final nail in the coffin for Xbox to be considered even a console. The release of Redfall was made to remind everyone of this fact.
