It's at this point I do want to stress that while the inside sources have been fairly reliable, this is still, as of yet, rumors. What's more known is the push for MS to start porting their exclusives to PS5, what isn't known for sure is extrapolating from that.
I point this out because MS "fanboys" (a thing I foolishly thought no longer existed) are losing their collective minds over this. Apparently, it was very important to them, for some reason, not just to have good games, but to be the only ones that got to play those games. Now you have people rending their shirts, gnashing their teeth, and breaking into soulful mourning music. Though, whether this turns out to be the real direction MS is going or not, I will certainly appreciate the responses of those now saying "I realized that Microsoft doesn't actually care about us and only care about money". That is a good growing moment. "Microsoft" isn't a person, it's a corporation, and corporations are systems, not people. Systems don't "care" about anything. I hope they've learned that putting any effort at all into "defending" or "sticking up" for a giant corporation is a waste of one's precious life on this Earth.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
