Buying the largest video game publisher while spending ungodly amounts of money on stupid datacenters will do that.

"Overextended" -> We got greedy "Reset the business" -> We're firing as many as we can get away with

The only thing MS has consistently done the past few years is miss the mark.

Maybe you and your parent company are just overextended on AI?

Microsoft has no idea what it means to make good games. They're just making decisions based on budget numbers and trying to come up with the words after to justify it.

These two hardly sound human in the quotes. How can they make games for people? They forgot how to be people!
