So fewer people on next gen machines when the audience is already too small for many games to survive. Fewer people playing combined with rising costs of making games is not a good combo.
So she doesn't mention sales for Starfield, but hours played lol. Yeah, if it sold massive we would have heard the developers shouting it from the rooftops like any dev does on twitter these days.
I'm just one guy, but I said in an article recently that I would have had to pay over 100 AUD for Halo when ti launches if it didn't come to GP day one. But it is so I'll sub for the month play it and then unsub and save myself like 80 bucks.
I know me I would have paid full price because I can't help myself with AAA games, but I don't have to and that's great for me.
Thank goodness for GP. Without it, I'd have to pay like a 100 AUD to play, but I'll just sub for the month at 25 AUD and not renew hehe. It's not a game I'll go back to anyways.
I would have loved a Perfect Dark game by them. I have played Xbox since the original, but I have never been more annoyed or disappointed than I have lately.
I know something needed to be done, but I can't help but feel some resentment towards past leaderships for letting it get this bad.
I feel bad for all these devs in every studio right now. All this uncertainty has to be affecting their mental health and anxiety. If there is going to be massive studio layoffs and closures I hope Microsoft just get it over with soon, so developers know either way.

I earn like 5 points a day because I don't have GP. When I did I used to have it I'd get about 300 a week I'd say.
Re: Journalist Claims Xbox Is 'Keeping' Obsidian Following Rumours Of Potential Closure
@TDHorizon Correct. Windows Central did an article about it and Avowed was one of the games that didn't meet Microsoft's expectations.
