You see Epic Games literally giving away video games, and people will not leave Steam.
Some people literally will never download Epic Games to just boot it up to play Bioshock Infinite for free.
They'll never do that.
They are loyal to Steam.
They are loyal to PlayStation.
So unless you're able to figure out, hey, we're going to put Game Pass on Nintendo Switch, which we will never do, and if they do, that is the biggest red flag that Xbox will go under in the next six months.
That will never happen, and I don't think there is a way to truly get people into the Xbox ecosystem in a meaningful way by the millions.
unless you are able to do exclusives that people are, hey, I'm going to buy a console.
I'm saying it all.
I think it's tough to just look at anybody and be like, hey, you have to download the Xbox app and sign in and make an account and do things.
I think that is a barrier that people just make.
It's like, oh, it's an easy barrier.
It's really not.
People don't want to do that.
People are in the Steam ecosystem.
People are in their PlayStation ecosystem.
They don't want to make another account and do another thing on this side, even if it is free or better or whatever.
Yeah.
And that's why I think if we talk about if this was doomed from the start, I think that would be the biggest thing to point out is that people just are not, if again,
If Epic Games every single week is giving away free video games and just people just don't do it, then I think that just shows people are stubborn and they are in their ecosystems and they don't necessarily want to go to Xbox right now.
