MS stay doing this shyt. They buy a legendary staff and fire them. Making said studio not the studio they bought. Nobody buys video games for the name. We buy because they are good. Knowing MS they probably gonna have a giveaway to be next President. You just got to buy a series S and sub to GameThrash

The core Video Game audience is 14-25, and are not familiar with big business fukkery.

High-Level one would think Microsoft buying Bethesda would lead to bigger things because they would have more finances, when really it's usually the opposite and those dreams just stay dreams.

MS has given Bethesda the freedom to release whatever they'd like. Even if it sucks -- redfall or offbrand --hifi rush.

Microsoft acquired Bethesda 3.5 years ago. It's more likely that they've released the last of the big projects he had under his belt and whatever golden handcuffs he's had have fully vested and he's ready to enjoy that money and the freedom it brings.

So Microsoft is okay being hands off, and allowing the companies they acquired put out reputation destroying turds?
