I mean you can make that point with any large purchase like this, even Zenimax. But as always, I.P plays a massive role in valuations and Microsoft is getting some of the biggest in the industry and making massive moves in areas where they are weak such as mobile.
Do you think this hurt Sony ? wait for MS to announce removal of gold and MP would free. this move would put so much pressure on them

Minecraft should never be compared to other games as itās more of a āPlatformā in itself than a game. COD may very well remain multiplat however if MSās bean-counters do the math and see that itās more profitable to keep these games exclusive, best believe they will be exclusive!
After how Sony has been paying every publisher under the sun to keep games off xbox and effectively attempt to kill the brand (KOTOR exclusivity especially pissing me off) personally i would love for them to go all āscorched earthā with Sony and deny them everything. But thatās just me.

you forgot to put day 1 releases of their games on pc 
Itās funny how out of touch a lot of gamers are. Like because they donāt personally love Call of Duty, it must not be that big a deal. I saw someone unironically posting that Sony should buy Konami because new exclusive Castlevania and Silent Hill games would be an effective retaliation against COD.

Yeah, has to be, crazy really. Or heās being ignorant on purpose.
heās doing it on purpose, there are a lot of people on social media that are doing their best to distribute disinformation. Even in other businesses that Microsoft has subscriptions for you can still buy a one time license to the product like office, the subscription is just a better long term deal.

Yeah, I have told him that he can just buy the games for the full price but also whether thatās wise I leave that up to him. Iāll leave it at all because like you said, heās very likely playing dumb on purpose. Got no time for that nonsense.
Itās silly but you get a discount on buying games on gamepass so you can literally earn back the price of the subscription and more depending on how many games you buy with the gamepass discount.

I would like to think that once the purchase goes through, Xbox will start getting a new starcraft game off the ground because itās crazy that the biggest RTS IP has been MIA for years.

People sure is easy to be convinced that cable TV is dying and streaming is the future, but for games, itās 100% secured to remain the same forever. Iām not saying subscription is the only way, but itās definitely a new option.
