I agree with this. I also agree that exclusives need to go, but it is very interesting that team “We tried buying our way into exclusives and then made them shittier at every step” is now crying that “it’s because people don’t want exclusives anymore”
Which, yeah, but also your exclusives you made absolute shite. Look what you did to my poor Halo. A near perfect gaming experience 15 years ago with one of the most epic sci-fi stories I’ve played, now to a boring bland corporate ripoff with absolutely no heart. Gears of war the same, a gritty action game based on the survival of humanity to… I don’t even remember the last two installments. Them exiting exclusives isn’t because they (rightfully) think we’re done with exclusives, it’s because they trashed their own IP.
