One thing I took away from the reactions to Microsoft’s conference was that people somehow get really fucking offended when you try and do something that isn’t “HERE IS A NEW VIDEO GAME FOR OUR CONSOLE OKAY GOODBYE”
And that pisses me off. It’s a video game console and the Xbox is probably going to get most triple-A games anyway, so why not show off some of the non-video game stuff they have planned?
The bitching about how Microsoft showed a bunch of stuff that wasn’t new games just comes off to me as snobby, entitled weirdos who are offended the conference is not 110% dedicated to games. They are allowed to show off other things and really if they only showed games the whole thing would get old pretty quick.
