I mean it’s just an engine, it's like saying you can't make 3rd person games on ID tech, at the end of the day it's just a bunch of tools and rendering scripts.
And I’m sure Sony could designed a first-person shooter on MLB The Show engine. Doesn’t mean that they should. The engine was designed and optimized for a specific genre. Stupid as fukk to go in and have to rewrite code, redesign tools, etc to make it applicable to a different genre. Just better off using a truly dynamic engine or starting from scratch anyway.

Stupid decision and they are dealing with the consequences.

This is why I don't understand the Phil Spencer standom by gamers and gaming journalists. Phil Spencer has a laughable and lousy track record but yet he is seen by gamers and gaming journalists as a brilliant wunderkind. He is the most unsuccessful successful executive ever. He is a dud.

They say this guy is a gamer yet he always calls it wrong with his own games. He loves Destiny and GoW though :francis:

Xbox was mismanaged in recent times. The OG xbox and 360 weren't mismanaged at all :skip:
The Red Ring of Death was good management? Kinect focus was good management? Rareware spending most of their post-Nintendo history making meh games was good management? Letting Bungie go only to later watch them run to Sony was good management?

Phil Spencer is pretty much the best thing to happen to Xbox. He got the full backing of Microsoft and Nadella behind Xbox. Them investing in Minecraft, Zenimax, Activision was because he sold the CEO on it. Game Pass was him. Cross platform multiplayer he pushed it through. Backwards compatibility was him. Smart delivery.

He’s done a great job. I can’t fault him for having the Xbox One be so trash because Mattrick started that under Ballmer. Can’t fault him for the early Xbox Series software struggle because COVID happened.
