my guess is Microsoft doesn't even see the DEI shit, since its baked in everywhere there now. Its just simply math, games that aren't gonna make back their costs by selling on PS5/switch are being shut down, and they aren't even thinking about why their first party pipeline system is so fucking broken.
they've spent billions on studios and first party games for a decade now and have so very little to show for it. Neither does Sony but at least they have uncharted, spiderman, TLOU, etc as legit system sellers. Halo is cooked, no one gives a shit about Gears of War, and the few games they have put out mostly are invisible to everyone (Hellblade etc)
i mean look at this shit LOL
