People in doubt just have too look at this thread and see why MS had to go third party and why third party developers prefer doing business with sony and prioritize playstation consoles.
You say this like there isn't any competition for our time out there. Why pay to play something you know will be on gamepass when you have games on gamepass you want to play or games on other platforms? FFS I still have a huge 2023 backlog and this fall/winter is going to leave me with a huge 2024 backlog. I can't be the only one where this is true.
