INB4 people who cheerleaded for a 70 billion dollar acquisition for two years express why this is horrible

Microsoft, Tencent and Embracer Group are racing to ruin this industry with all this consolidation shyt.

Yep, and xbox fans are the first ones to start crying about timed exclusives all while cheering for entire acquisitions

Don't act like you know what I'd think. I would say the exact same thing if Sony made this purchase. I hate this kind of consolidation.

Maybe consolidation of the tech and gaming industry is bad?

False, I've posted multiple times that I'd be doing the same thing no matter who was purchasing. I do not think console makers/platforms should be making purchases of this scale. Epic, Steam, Sony, M$, Google, doesn't matter.

This is why massive consolidation sucks

This is exactly what M$ is doing. Yet due to it being your team you’re cheering it on.

This is why I don’t want large scale consolidation. Period

This.

Microsoft also can decide to shut down studios if xbox isn’t bringing in money. What type of logic is that lol

But you don't post the whole truth. You're a contrarion.

All this consolidation is making games quality worse and publishers taking less risks.

Oh wait…..
