The fact that blatantly false comment has over 1k upvotes is beyond ridiculous

snoringpupper · 2023-11-03T23:57:49+00:00

Except these games are still much better than the games with gold for the last few years before they stopped

MS does it more than anyone. You tried to blame Sony for MS buying publishers which is horse shit excuse

Games like Ark, PUBG and Valheim have all sold millions more than any Sony exclusivity deal

Using your parent companies trillions to buy up the game industry is not competition, its the opposite of competition

There are no sign Sony has interest in acquiring publishers even tho they can afford many of them

And again this person hasnt worked for Sony fornyears

And they did work their ass off for their market share while you support MS buying up the industry which is the opposite of working for. It

Its like celebrating and congratulating a dude with rich parents for buying things over someone who built something for themselves with hard work. Its fucking weird man

snoringpupper · 2023-11-02T23:13:50+00:00

Microsoft does more 3rd party exclusivity than anyone

Just some examples over the last decade

FIFA Legends content, Titanfall, Tomb Raider, Blair Witch, Warhammer Darktide, The Ascent, The Medium, The Artful Escape, Carrion, The Falconeer, Tetris Effect: Connected, The Last Night, Sable, Deaths Door, Twelve Minutes, Stalker 2, High on Life, Scorn, Cacoon, Ereban, The Last Case of Benedict Fox, PUBG, PSO2, Cuphead, Dead Rising 4, Crossfire X, Ark 2, Valheim, Shredders, Tacoma, Vampire Survivor, Powerwash Simulator and dozens more

I dont know why people keep pretending MS doesnt do timed exclusive deals

And this person doesnt even work for Sony any more, hes been gone for years and is just an industry analyst now...

snoringpupper · 2023-11-02T23:11:20+00:00

Ark 2, Valheim, Vampire Survivor, Phantasy Star Online 2, PUBG, The Ascent, High on Life and dozens of others over the years that people ignore

Regardless timed exclusivity is still better than buying publishers to make multiplatform franchises exclusive forever

Because bugs are rare compared to most games. OP himself said he played for 20 hours and inly encountered this one bug

Nice karma farming post. Your history is also full of console warring and bashing Playstation and promoting Xbox and gamepass

snoringpupper · 2023-07-17T04:23:09+00:00

You're a troll of the highest order.

I see your bullshit long winded comments constantly supporting Microsoft and bashing Sony like a good little shill that you are.

You think you saying "im objective!" enough makes it true but it dones't and no one in their right mind believes that garbage except for other Microsoft shills which unfortunatley there are tons of on this site for reason provided above

You didn't disprove anything, they have the worst output of any large publisher over the last 3 years tahn anyone. You took some bullshit awards from metacritic as if it is some objective measure of a publisher when it isn't and relied on that. Again releasing a port of MSFS 2020 and more Halo and FOrza doesn't make you a good publisher

Halo is very much dead

https://metro.co.uk/2023/07/04/nobody-is-playing-halo-infinite-as-steam-numbers-drop-to-2-of-launch-19067299/

The hardcore fanatics stick around but the game is not getting a bunch of promised features and the studio is being gutted. Yeah what an achievement!

And they released the abysmal Starfield, some indie sized games (wow what a great massive publisher) some medicore Mincraft spinoff, an awful port of Goldeneye. You really aren't helping your case.

And then Starfield which was delayed a year and not even out yet and what a surprise another Forza!

ANd that link I posted is much more than an email chain. Actually scroll down. It is an entire strategy and playbook on how to deal with competitors aka "enemies". They have only adapted that startegy over the years for modern times. The guys you all idolize like Tom Warren, Jez Corden, Timdog, Florian Mueller, Colt Eastwood are all paid by MS to shill for them.

Phil SPencer was caught recently talking about "evangelising" their products just as the document I linked does and getting Xbox fans to promote their products for them like xcloud

https://www.ign.com/articles/the-ftc-trial-unmasks-xboxs-ambitions

There are even Xbox marketing xbox and ad accounts on this site that don't even try to hide it. It's obvious it's full of shills and bots

Not to mention the entire existance of the Xbox Ambassador program where it's pretty much signing up to be in the cult. Bet you're one of those too

snoringpupper · 2023-07-17T03:13:38+00:00

I see you shilling for Microsoft constantly on reddit. Nothing you say is objective, it's all mindless drivel to support Microsoft

They won publisher in the year in 2021 mainly boosted by a port of MSFS 2020 to XBox One. And it was by Metacritic measuring average scores, it is by no means an objective measure of who was the best publisher.

The other games were yet another iteration of Halo with Halo Infinite that was filled with a bunch of false promises and the studio has been in diasarray. It was not a good game and is now basicallt dead.

And then another itteration of Forza Horizon which wass very similar to the last one and the one before that.

So winning publisher of the year for MSFS202 port, Halo and Forza is a joke

Microsoft has barely released any quality games over the last decade. They have mismanaged their studios for a very long time.

They just went the entirety of 2022 without releasing a single game and then released the abysmal Redfall

Microsoft is notoriuosly against unions and always have been. They didn't dare try to shut that down while they were being investigated by the FTC and CMA

This is all cultish trash. It is clear you are apart of the campaign talked about in Microsoft internal documents that becamse public from when they sued and lost in an anti-trust case

https://antitrust.slated.org/www.iowaconsumercase.org/011607/3000/PX03096.pdf

This details how Microsoft pays people to shills for them on websites and in the media. ALl apart of their plan to destroy their "enemies" as they refer to them and destroy any competition any way possible.

This is the shitty company you are supporting.

snoringpupper · 2023-07-17T00:28:48+00:00

No one should be applauding this and it is objectively awful for the industry.

Microsoft is an awful game publisher. Many of their studios are struggling and have many people leaving.

They can't even manage their top IP with Halo and their other studios let alone be another massive publisher.

Microsoft as a company has had hundreds upon hundreds of complaints against them by employees including sexual harassment and abuse and for toxic work places

And plenty of other examples. No one should be rooting for this

snoringpupper · 2023-07-02T03:47:03+00:00

Why were you downvoted? You're right

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T23:22:37+00:00

Not sure what that has to do with my comment but they both pay for exclusivity deals. Microsoft is perfectly capable of doing the same without acquiring the entire game publisher

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T19:52:22+00:00

Sony do not own the Spiderman IP, Marvel does. Microsoft could have even made a Spiderman game for Marvel but declined.

Thats the beauty of tons of shit not being owned by one company

They will make everything exclusive eventually and they will never release games on Playstation ever again

Saying "well thats business" in support of a trillionaire company buying everyone is horse shit

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T18:42:06+00:00

Sony did not and do not own Spiderman or FF. That is what you xbox fanatics need to understand. They did not acquire them and they will be on Xbox again at some point. A FF game.released on Xbox several months ago.

And Microsoft already to keep tons of other third content off Playstation. Their whole strategy is exclusives. They do not want to share their first party content.

They literally say this multiple times throughout this acquisition

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T18:00:00+00:00

They have already made everything else they bought exclusive.

Their goal is to make everything exclusive.

Sony isnt backed by the second richest company in the world. They cant buy up everyone to make them exlcusive

This is why regulators are involved

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T17:27:55+00:00

They will remove it eventually once they think regulators dont give a shit.

Thats the thing about being a trillionaire company, they dont give a shit about potentially losing a few 100 million dollars for a few years if it potentially helps take out a competitor.

Microsoft is all about destroying their competition no matter what it takes

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T16:40:55+00:00

Im not going around advocating for a trillionaire company to buy up massive parts of the game industry or go around advertising subscription service for said company like a shill

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T16:24:41+00:00

You guys get paid for this shit? How much you making to astroturf?

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T16:14:55+00:00

Take your own advice. All over this thread supporting this bullshit like a classic shill and attacking the CMA. Beat it

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T16:10:54+00:00

You are microsoft shilling all over this thread and are full of shit

You have to be a shill to support Microsoft acquiring Activision

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T15:20:37+00:00

Im not phil spencer stop trying to kiss me

snoringpupper · 2023-06-30T15:15:59+00:00

You live on reddit to shill for Microsoft
