Naw fam. I have an Xbox series X and game pass and I’m ecstatic to hear that Microsoft may be doing this. This will buy them the good will of all gamers and they know it. Fucking Chad move by MSFT if true.

I think he was referring to people angry or disappointed by Microsoft's move

I don't get this take. Good will doesn't keep the platform alive. If you want Xbox to survive they need good exclusive games. Otherwise it's already over. No one buys the hardware, and then no one buys gamepass. Sony is out selling 2:1 right now. Want to guess what that looks like if people can play everything on a PlayStation?

Nope. Just good games. Doesn’t have to be exclusive
