Oh no acquisition strategy stopped working. Wait until they realize if they won’t make enough new good games their subscriptions will start to fade out because game industry is not the same as video or music.

They should do the typical thing and shut down Activision.

All that Modern Warfare 2019 talent can finally go do something worthwhile again, and not just pump out slop.

Plus the Blizzard name has cashed in all of its previous good reputation, at least from my point of view.

Most fond things I see said about them are from people still playing their older games, other than a friend that is still playing wow classic.

Game Pass’ revenue grew by 5.7% in the year to June, which is below the internal target of 11%. Following the service’s declining growth rate, it was dropped as a metric contributing to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella’s pay in 2023.

Rules for thee, not for me.

Activision has prevented Game Pass from being seen as “not worth it” by many. It is helping Microsoft retain value.

Yeah, I have a sub atm while I work through some games. It’s in a good place right now (compared to a couple of years ago), but I’ll probably drop it in a month or two.

I’ve had game pass ultimate since day 1. I love it. I have last time I checked played 127 games and 2k hours on Gamepass games last year.

Works for me.
