I know this is a meme community, but not everything has to be derailed into a joke circlejerk. Maybe some people want to have legitimate discussions along with the memes? Why do we have to accommodate the trolling, but you can’t accommodate legit discussion?

The fandom didn’t fix anything though, they’ve created this rift, in fact you’re probably part of the problem.

Sure why not? If they were trained by highly trained clones, it would make sense that people would think they were good shots.

He may not have had an exact idea, but that’s the great thing about the universe he created. It’s open and not limited, they’ve also done a pretty good job avoiding retconning, other than when Disney took over.

Problem is, no one admits that and lies about it. So here we are.

Because that’s the bias the media you consume wants you to believe.

Jedi Survivor, Suicide Squad, and Mortal Kombat account for $800M of this list, and none of them came to Game Pass, meaning Microsoft did not opt to spend that money.

Or… no amount of money was enough to make those games cannablize their sales, why don’t think it’s only Microsoft making decisions…?

Games leave gamepass since when it comes to renewal they don’t want to since streaming cannablizes sales and leads to lower revenue (already said this) so it’s not Microsoft deciding it’s not profitable, it’s the game wanting control back.

Investors don’t care, Microsoft itself is profitable, the gaming division can bleed money and they won’t care, since the parent company will just give them the difference another way.

And that’s not estimated, some games did cost that much….

Not actually pricing, estimates, but if they were estimating that much, they were liking willing to pay close to it, even half these numbers and it doesn’t look good. Just this collection of games that a drop in the bucket of total games, would cost 1.5 billion dollars. That’s over half their revenue, without even accounting for any operating costs or anything, or the rest of the library.

So, no it is not profitable and it’s hilarious that you’re defending Microsoft for claiming this, why isn’t anyone else other than Microsoft?

Why are you talking about game budgets? Microsoft is paying completely finished games 100-300 million dollars to be on games pass. Of they are doing that, do you seriously think that they aren’t spending more than 2.7 billion putting games in the service…?

Before it was entire access, now I need to select which ones it can access everytime I want to it to access them.

Camera is always free to access now though. Not a fan of the change myself.

Dude… they spend over 1 billion, but they also have 6 games that cost 1.2billion. Their costs are far more than 1 billion and probably exceeds the 2.7….
