Pointing out the funny points of this show as negatives is pathetic. Frasier's "god complex" and inability to apply his own advice to himself is what makes the show funny. Maybe you missed that?
2:00 "but they are encased in glass" and you show device that actually don't need to be in glass. I mean, It is not "transparent", because Voxon Photonics volumetric display is just screen moving very quickly up and down (I am not sure if it is display like LED display or (probably more likely) white screen on which actual image is displayed via standard projector).
Heres the thing. Sure, these business school graduates can be smarter than us.... but in their particular field. For example, if you put a business graduate in charge of, say, a maintenance department, they won't understand why so much money is needed. Because they have never worked ON THE FLOOR. When you work on the floor, you understand why things cost as much as they do or what works best. So they may be really smart at business stuff but dont understand a bloody thing about game development or how to make profitable games.
This is the issue. Studio gets invaded by non-gamers and DEI hires. Studio makes game. Game is anticipated and revenue is PROJECTED. Game launches. Game is woke. Game is rejected by gamers. Studio blames gamers. Stupid loses ability to make good games. Games are ruled by politics instead of creativity. Studio dies. Studio and Gaming Journos blame gamers. Another Studio gets bought by corporation with woke mindset. Rinse, Repeat.
So they open up their games to all platforms and luckily have already bought a ton of studios to make games. That means that instead of Xbox the console and game company we'll be left with Xbox the Game Studios
It seems that the global elites focused on the Irish immigrants to push their filthy, disgusting racial and class narrative here in the beautiful land of America! The difference between the Irish and the blacks is that the Irish didn't adopt the victim consciousness and give up on making their lives better. In fact, it's said that the Irish were treated far worse than the blacks. Isn't it quite interesting that the brutal and vicious attack on races always comes from the British elites and protestants.
so phil spencer said he could see steam store on the xbox in the future which is nice it means more indie games will be accessible on xbox that are only on steam
It's profit. It's not "they were bleeding talent!" Or "they made a bad game!!" Shareholders and execs don't because firing a bunch of people and liquidating beloved studio's is much easier and more profitable and raises the little green line more. Maximum profits for the few at top. That's it. It's not complicated. It's not excuses.
It's short term greed, simple as that. They don't see the long term benefits anymore. They see something wasting money for a month instead of profiting and think "This sucks, get rid of it," even if they were gonna make 20 times as much money off of that thing a year or 2 down the line.
Microsoft is stupid, because its run by middle aged management that does not understand how subscriptions work. You subscribe to a service and since this service is not on commitment plan to year, or 2 year contract you can cancel it any time. There are subscrition services that are used every day, netflix, spotify, you phone plan, cable TV, etc... Those are usually services where you sing a contract for certain amount of time and you pay monthly, but guess what. Most popular subscription servicies, streaming servicies are part of your plan, 5 years ago I knew a lot of people who payed for netflix and spotify, no its part of you mobile plan or home internet plan. Microsoft most probably found out that you dont need games every day, you dont play every day game from xbox gamepass. You may subscribe to it during holydays, after your finals, or when you are home sick for 2 weeks. so you pay 10 dollars and then unsubcsribe.
The whole acquiring of studios and then shutting them down, plus the idea of them going into JUST putting games on Playstation... am I the only one who thinks this is just some bassackwards way of getting rid of the competition?
Games need to scale back they keep giving these people multi million dollar budgets they need to be made back asap and when they obviously doesn’t happen they lay people off
Informative take; was good to catch up with the dumpster fire that is modern M$ uppermanagement. The Post-2013 Micro-Transaction Gaming Industry was a mistake.
Ayyy I saw you use an image of Chuck Connors from the Rifleman! A great Western and a favorite show of mine growing up. That made me smile to see that in a RU-vid video more than 50 years after the show ended.
