Im chill for real. Just simply calling out the BS rhetoric we so often see from so called gamers.
Then why are you in the thread? That's what's so bizarre; for someone to be in a thread that has no interest in the platform or its games. That's cool! You're not obligated to. But to still have input on a product you don't care for is the very definition of someone who is insecure about the product they've purchased.
Grasping at straws?? Lol
Your entertainment is shit posting in Xbox related threads? Sony threads not keeping the passion for you these days, or.....
Bitter and twisted comes to mind with that poster, always in Xbox threads even complaining about the 5 year old Nokia Lumia not being supported anymore.
And yet, they've grown exponentially. They've added a plethora of dev houses and devs to their Dev family and more to be announced at XO19.
Dude, What you're stating is not fact, its conjecture. The hardware sales have slowed because their focusing on next gen. Everything else you're saying is none essential and assumptions at best. C'mon...
No, they are struggling.... you put a "LOL". The hardware sales were never good, the hardware sales went down even during the Xbox One X release and has very little to do with next gen. PS4 will have a slight reduction in sales but nothing like what has been going on at Xbox. The hardware sales are not bad, or terrible... they are horrendous... and that was before they officially announced they are releasing on other digital storefronts. The hardware is toast today, wait till you see next year.
Pick one.
Hardware is driven by games and gasp! there are more games coming out. Gears of War 5 and Ori and the Will of the Wisp alone would be a reason to own an xbox one. You probably scoff, but it really just shows that you're in ignorant xbox hater that can't fathom people liking games that differ from your own tastes. Then you have games like Battletoads and Tunic set to release as well. And I love all the people underestimating how big Halo Infinite is going to be. You can pretend all you want, but the game is going to sell hardware both xbox one and scarlett. I don't know why you put so much stock in one bad gen pushing Microsoft into becoming solely a multiplatform software developer. "Like like oh my gosh it's totally happening!"
. Don't be such a valley girl dude... I guess we can throw out the success of the original xbox and xbox 360. There is definitely no evidence to suggest that Microsoft can put out a good system and games and be successful in the console market. They haven't thrown anything out of the window. It's just the typical posters like yourself still ignoring the fact that people enjoy playing games on a console regardless of whether they're on pc. Xbox has traditionally been popular for its multiplayer games and there are lot of people, including me (and i have a pc) that are completely uninterested in playing multiplayer games or even single player games on a pc. Also please don't act like Microsoft intended the xbox one x to be a big seller. It was stated from the beginning that the system would be for a niche market. It accomplished its purpose in showing MS can still put out a good system. so when next gen starts people are thinking oh it's the next xbox one x and not the next xbox one.

I mostly console play, so... not sure what this even means.
Outer Worlds was already in production though before Obsidian was purchased and the publisher isn’t Microsoft. Same with We Happy Few, and we already know the case of Minecraft, this is not a great example that Microsoft is already doing this.
There is one major issue with your scenario; making and selling game consoles is very expensive, and there is a cutoff point where it is no longer profitable to design, build and sell consoles. Every generation, console development bites a chunk out of every company's profitability.
Dude, that was an expert rebuttal to his usual rhetoric.
And why make Scarlett? With this theory why make another console out in 2020?
Money on designing Scarlet was already spent. It is too late to cancel that. MS is at the wishy-washy stage, not willing to commit to consoles but also not willing to abandon consoles.
So they don't want to stop...becouse...in this gen : Xbox One s, Xbox One x, Xbox One all digital
Sunk costs. Money spent on Scarlet needed to be recuperated. But MS is right now struggling to decide if they really want to give Scarlet the best chance to succeed.
Seems lots of excuses...if they make hardware..nah dosen't count...if they stop yeah i told you...
I am not the one who tried to claim that console sales don't matter. MS was the ones who brought it up. And console sales is important to actually justify the money spent on research and development of consoles. None of us would have entertained the idea to begin with if MS didn't tried to argue otherwise in the last year.
What ms can do or Say to avoid "ms is doomed"?
But why there Is no halo gears or whatever in all platforms? You Say Is the new strategy but i don't see evidence,only second party are on switch and not on ps
So far, all signs point to a lack of 1st party Scarlet exclusives for the first two years of Scarlet hardware launch.
