Not to sound like I’m blindly defending gamepass but you get the sense there’s a decent portion of gamers (and maybe even journalists) that are drooling at the prospect of being able to blame gamepass for what’s happened between the devs and Square. Of course without doing any real sort of research before coming out with their takes and clickbait headlines.
While they are a minority, I guess it still shows the sort of hate the xbox (and Microsoft) brand has with some gamers where the mere thought of buying an xbox probably causes them actual pain. Luckily the majority of gamers aren’t really blinded by such hate and once the top quality games are out will likely happily buy an xbox (or any brand for that matter).
I am always amazed how profitable Microsoft is. And everything out of it is coming from basically enterprise and cloud. I wonder how big they could become if not for them missing mobile train and search train.

This video right here shows what a game changer VRR truly is.
Tales of Arise demo in graphics mode, which means higher quality grass and just a higher resolution. the video is the game without VRR. I played it yesterday with VRR enabled and it was 60fps with dips here and there, but absolutely playable.
yep, the framerate issues seem to have been addressed. It might not end up being the best pokemon game, but it’s a long time coming that the series had to evolve in some ways and bring something new, and this is trying to do that. The graphics look rather alright, and is indeed a perfect candidate alongside BotW2 to show why it’s time for Switch Pro. That resolution looks like 540p or some shit, the engine is certainly struggling on that Switch rn.
Anyway, feels good to be excited about a mainline pokemon game in several years, geez. Hope it sticks the landing and tells Gamefreak to continue revitalizing the series rather than sticking to simply what kept selling.
It is always strange between the two of them. I think last year Pope also said that he ended his partnership with Xbox, and then not long after he was a partner with them again. I’m not surprised.
