We all know that Phil Spencer is responsible for the XBOX departure of Microsoft. So he would be the equivalent to Jim Ryan or the successor. I’m curious, because Jim Ryan is not formerly know to be responsible for Playstation games, it’s Herman Hulst or before im Shun Yoshida. Has Microsoft a person that oversee the develoment of games, gives feedback about games and their Quaility? Which person would that be? I sometimes have the feeling Phil is for sure a gamer and exiting, but not always aware what a quality game is. At the release of the Series X|S consoles he called it a bummer that they moved the Helo games back because of the mentioned Quality problems that were pinned out by the community. So wasn’t phil aware of the qualit of these games or does he want to push out such a famours brand on release, regardless of the current state of the game. We all know that Helo was even on the later release not finished (multiplayer for example). I don’t want to say xbox studio isn’t able to do good games, just some of them need maybe more developement time.
I hope the best for the senua successor and the new fable game.

FTA “How will Xbox Games Studios treat Call of Duty? Only time will tell.”
Just ask any Minecraft player. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you are in for a bumpy ride callers of duty.

I don’t play Minecraft outside creative mode with kids. What did they do to Minecraft?

They have forced the Bedrock version on us, which in my opinion is not as well written. They then forced everyone to convert their id to an xbox id. Personally, they have really just seemed to have forgotten about the Switch Edition. It takes a minute to load up and be ready to play. I am talking about loading resource packs, etc. Why it takes more than a second to load your character is beyond me. They ruined the ability to pop out of an online game and check anything, like friends online status, or screen shots you have taken. The second you click on the home button you are disconnected from the online game, including realms. This was an update that caused this, as this used to be doable. I know it all sounds nitpicky, but when you start collectively adding it together it’s just a worse gaming experience. Mojang seemed to actually care and take the time to look at issues and want to make things better. Definitely doesn’t have that same feel now. Might as well be yelling at clouds for all the good it does us. So I expect Call of Duty will get the same. Sure they will make promises that nothing will change, and they will do their best to maintain the status quo, but their detrimental changes will slowly start creeping in.
