Why is MS so bad at managing studios and giving proper creative autonomy to them?

But that do do that. That's where things go wrong. You've seen what gamers are like, right? Game devs aren't much different. You need businessmen running the shop and keeping the manchildren focused. Microsoft is letting the inmates run the asylums.

Zero completely missed the point. This could only ever have been something as far removed as OG PD as you can get.

Hoo boy, this song and dance again. They still blaming covid?

The actual problem is that Microsoft lets devs do whatever they want, and then they never ending up doing anything, or fucking shit up.

Zero was fun as fuck in multiplayer. One of the best infection modes around.
Andrew Wright
I wonder what "creative direction" we'll end up with.
Lucas Barnes
You know it's kind of amazing, most developers and publishers took the lessons learned from Daikatana to heart but not MS.
A proper production pipeline is just as, if not more important as good devs.
Samuel Cook
it's an industry wide problem, there is NO NEW TALENT, and they are bleeding what's left. AAA gaming is in/heading for the dark ages, AA and Indie is where it's at.
Owen Carter
MS can buy as many Studios as they want. They will never make great games again.

they’re speedrunning the rise and fall of Netflix with their Gamepass analog, scooping up developer/publishers to prop up their subscription base, no limit due to their US/CIA contract slush funds, but forgetting along the way they need to foster half decent working environments and, ummmm…uhhhh…yeah, ya know, actually make half way decent games
tldr, Microsoft is gayer than a bag of chopped off dicks

They only have money, no loyalty or talent. Unlike Sony who does with their first party studios, hate them or like them i dont care but they put out very high quality games
Henry Gomez
*puts on sunglasses*
Guess they lost the initiative
Dominic Nelson
Creative autonomy only works if they adhere to schedule structure and return on investment that their superiors agree with. Otherwise MS would have to step in with their big daddy dick and out the fuckers back in line. Basically babysit people who really wouldn’t be worth their day to day time
Adam Martinez
>high quality games
LOL, lmao even
Jordan Parker
>LOL, lmao even
compared to Microsoft? yeah he’s right you absolute melon
Henry Stewart
what would satellite nutella know about videogames?
Nathaniel Richardson
Dont care about your muh moviegame seethe. Their games have a very high standard when it comes to basically anything. Sound design, animation, motion cap, voice acting. And they blow microsoft out of the water with all of these things. Its not even a question
Leo Nguyen
Last good game snoy shat out was Uncharted 1-3 collection. Literally the only good exclusive they have. Everything else is total dogshit.
MCC shits all over it. Gears Tactics was also an excellent game. Rare Replay was also great.
Camden Bailey
well, guess the last 40 hours playing Returnal and experiencing vidya kino was just my imagination, huh? decided to boot up Halo Infinite to see if I was wrong, but nah, Microsoft sucks
Nolan Jenkins
This doesnt really matter. The point was never if you PERSONALLY enjoy Sony games. Literally nobody cares about that, but what is undeniable is the quality they are produced in. And every Sony game shits on microsoft in this aspect.

yeah suppose you’re right, the thing that pickles my gherkins is how the fuck doesnt Microsoft utterly dominate with the vast ocean of money they have access to, are they really that inept?
