They've killed their first party studios, their hardware and now their last remaining thing which was the game pass.

Execs forcing MTX and Subscriptions into AAA titles is the death of AAA Gaming. Most AAA are shit nowadays anyways.

Absolutely. Monetization has always been the problem. The tendency of the rate of profit to fall necessitates worse and worse monetization schemes.
