I want to make a transparent but a pretty opinionated post, this shit is getting a bit too crazy now. No i do not believe in a media conspiracy against Microsoft, nor do they need your protection (Microsoft is a big boy now). But there has been this barrage of batshit theories out there recently.
Heres what I believe is valid, in no way do you have to agree with it, in no way should my priorities have to align with yours and its gospel but ill say it anyway:
Heres the shit that has somehow passed into debate
The above things have legitimately been argued I shit you not, if people want to discuss that in a public forum sure do that, nobody wants an MS hugbox and I have absolutely no say in what you talk about anyway, hell i've chimed in loads to the point its probably a decent share of my post history. But I hope you understand that unless you have something to say that isnt pure speculation stuff like the above list is wishful controversy that is completely detached from reality.
Sorry for the ramble and the compilation of the greatest hits of things ive heard recently, lol i'd actually love to see a "Ballmer was a Nazi Reptilian EXPOSED" thread, but at the least, at the very very least, provide evidence.
Heres what I believe is valid, in no way do you have to agree with it, in no way should my priorities have to align with yours and its gospel but ill say it anyway:
- UWP needs to be more open
- Windows Store is bad and needs an immediate rehaul
- Kinect was unnecessary and crap
- Online DRM was anti-consumer
- Windows 10 shouldnt be forced upon people at all
- Scantily clad schoolgirl dancers aren't cool at a professional gathering
Heres the shit that has somehow passed into debate
- Microsoft is leaving the industry by announcing two consoles on the same day
- Phil Spencer was lying because he looked away from the camera at a certain point
- Microsoft wants to sabotage Steam by intentionally targeting it and sacrificing all Win32 compatibility for good
- Rocket League cross-play with PSN was done to spite Sony
- Play Anywhere means every Xbox gamer will just go to PC and the Xbox is useless despite being two completely seperate markets
- Nearly the entire 'Microsoft needs more flak 40% smaller' thread
