Like I said, they tried. They had leadership change, but at the end of the day consoles in general largely disrespect your freedom and are designed around it.

I do own several consoles and I like them for their emotional value, but I'm never going to trust lip service from ANY company that tolerates things like always-online DRM or worse: actively implements it themselves. (refer to figure A: latest Forza)

PS: I'll admit I didn't read all of your comment because by God that was WAY too much for 2:30am, but I'll forget to reply otherwise and think I want to react to your initial statement at least.

Edit: Read the rest, my comment wasn't to paint Xbox as worse than others (after reversing course), but rather expressing they all try to eat away your freedoms.

Backwards compat is nice, but only fixes self-imposed problems.
