Yes, but if you have a bit of critical thinking ability you realize there’s a bit more underneath.

Xbox seems like it may be toast. It’s being rolled into Windows somehow, it seems. The odds are decent that it’s a face-saving exercise and the whole thing is being shut down slowly. Or Microsoft pulls something incredible out of the bag. The Xbox management has to be desperate at this point. We’ll see whether whatever Winbox thing comes out of it sticks to the wall or not.

The Witness (2016) is a really good puzzler, as is The Talos Principle (2014) (it’s gotten a UE5 remaster now).

That’s not a financial decision. That’s just them lacking technical expertise. And let’s be real - the S is not some kind of potato. It’s perfectly capable. You need ever so slightly less detailed 3D models and textures than on the X but I don’t remember this being a huge issue during the PS4 generation.

Not having lots of SKUs and a user-managed OS is kinda what the console experience is about. Steam OS does not deliver a console experience. Steam Deck kinda does (except not really), but Steam OS is just a part of that.

MS has sold more S than X, according to a quick google. Not sure why you’d want to port a game to Xbox Series X without making the game playable on S.

Dude. You played an RPG in spite of the story. There are better dhooters out there. Go play those instead

Yeah, but since it’s dynamically generated it’s likely the 10th time you see those quests.

It does seem to be the best one, although CPU parallelism seems awful. No one wants to use CryEngine, and Godot and Unity is only used by indies
