Considering all you know, can you really improve Aaron Greenberg, Phil Spencer & Matt Booty?
Xbox wants to know why studios avoid their consoles
- Thread starter John Elden Ring
- Start date
I mean yeah, but the fact that Xbox users don't buy games is probably the biggest pill to swallow for studios. The only "good" reason to release on Xbox is if Xbox gives you a lucrative gamepass deal.
If they can't figure ut out on their own, it's hopeless. They will never turn tide.
all they had to do was make 1-3 standout games a year and they failed miserably.
I this is more of a Sarah Bond thing and higher ups, that are seeing so many game developers skip xbox, and then to turn around and blame the process. But I think this will in affect show higher ups all these systems that have been in place for a long time were under phil and not changed.
I also hope the 18 month contract thing is brought up a lot. But im not holding my breath.
Their whole marketing is telling people that they don't need their CONSOLE and they're asking why their console is being ignored? This is beyond laughable.
And not a single Xbot in that thread asked him why. Unbelievable!
Why is that site so popular with developers and community managers?
they got a point tbh, the series s mandate is a stupid thing that shouldn't have been made, I get it if it was a budget console that DIDN'T have to reach parity with the X, but it does, so it's stupid.
Publishers and devs are smart, they know games aren't selling on xbox so they avoid releasing their game there on purpose so Phil will swoop in and drop em a bag to cover the costs and more. Clever.
