  Is this the beginning of the end for Xbox? One telling data point for me is that King and Mojang are the biggest studios at Xbox. When you think of Xbox, do you think of Minecraft and Candy Crush? I know I don't. I guess that's the problem. Studios being sold off: * Compulsion Games * Double Fine Productions * Ninja Theory * Undead Labs * Arkane appears to be closing entirely.

  @Cyberdost Let me tell you the reality. I have visited cyber cell for atleast 20 times and I have never seen your officers working. They are either watching reels, playing candy crush or having chit chat with colleagues over cup of tea.

  Xbox just hit reset. Hard. 🎮 Microsoft is cutting ~4,800 jobs — 2.1% of its workforce. Xbox alone faces ~3,200 cuts through FY27, with 1,600 roles gone immediately. And four studios are leaving Microsoft’s gaming empire. This isn’t just “layoffs.” It’s Xbox admitting the old playbook broke. Game Pass + multi-platform + buying studios was supposed to make Xbox unavoidable. Instead, Xbox got stuck with: - lower margins - weaker console momentum - rising hardware costs - too many management layers - too many bets chasing too little return Translation? Microsoft doesn’t want to own every cool studio anymore. It wants fewer experiments, bigger franchises, cleaner execution, and businesses that actually print money. That means more focus on Minecraft, Candy Crush, Call of Duty-scale IP, PC, mobile, cloud, and subscription economics that don’t bleed quietly in the background. The AI angle is subtle but important: Microsoft says these roles aren’t being replaced by AI. But AI is clearly changing where Big Tech spends money. Less headcount in slow-growth units. More capital toward AI infrastructure, cloud, automation, and high-margin software. For Xbox, the next chapter probably looks less like a console war… and more like a platform war. Xbox everywhere. Fewer studios. More discipline. More pressure on Game Pass. And maybe fewer “passion projects” unless they can scale. Bad news for nostalgia. Good news for Microsoft’s margins. Scary news for any studio that doesn’t look like a platform. Unpopular opinion: This reset was coming the moment Xbox started acting like Netflix without Netflix-level pricing power.

  @shutupchelsey Not candy crush catching strays. Lmao so I’m supposed to be outchea ******…. Got it. Make it affordable, make it so that I can actually have time to raise a kid as opposed to working my life away.

  @thomaslhorrocks Imagine believing the argument is that candy crush is the problem and not a placeholder/analogy for the overall problem of materialism… also blaming costs doesn’t hold water when you learn that poorer people are having more kids than the rich.

  1. The Start Menu Ad Board Situation: You open the Start Menu to launch your core tools, expecting a clean grid of your installed software. Instead, half your visual field is polluted with "Pinned" apps like TikTok, Instagram, and Candy Crush. You assume these are pre-installed programs taking up valuable disk space, but they are actually just paid corporate advertisements waiting for a misclick to trigger a background download. System: Right-click and unpin every single piece of corporate bloatware immediately. Do not leave a single one. Then, go to Settings > Personalization > Start and aggressively turn off "Show recommendations for tips, shortcuts, new apps, and more". Why it works: You reclaim your visual real estate and cognitive load. The Start Menu goes back to being a pure, functional launcher that obeys your commands, not a digital strip mall designed to steal your attention before you even begin working.

  @60Minutes Lmao yeah the problem is everyone is playing Candy Crush. Certainly not the economy, shifting priorities and a generation of undesirable men propagandized by rw podcasters.

  Buddy thinks we stopped getting married and reproducing bc of candy crush and not bc of a system that encourages 20 year olds to enter the working world with 6 figure debt in this real estate market. And people vote for this

  @UmberHouse @Sir_Dammed Yes, *I* make it a quality issue. The whole problem, at its core, is a quality issue. Anyone can eat cheap fast food, that doesn't make everyone a gourmet. Just like anyone can play candy crush and that doesn't make them gamers

  @Random_Walk_PDX It would probably have no impact on their already very low birth rates, because Candy Crush is actually the problem.

  @Sir_Dammed The big issue is how the demographics of games like Candy Crush is used to torture statistics and give companies misleading data. There is no amount of gay race feminism that will get Candy Crush moms to play Call of Duty.

  @LizzieMarbach Women are just so bad at playing them which is the real crux of the issue. Like 5 year old boys can crush them at anything that isn't...candy crush

  For all but four years of my life I have lived without a personal computer. In college, I used the computer labs… it was wonderful, in comparison to later experiences, to have pals nearby suffering like you were. My first computer was an Apple laptop. I had never used Apple before. It sat on a quilt I was using as a table cover for three years while the credit card they had advertised for its “affordability” accrued interest so fast that I ultimately paid three times the original price. I only used it to check email haha (it turned out that, indeed, reality television and a full time job were enough and back then Survivor was it…I looked forward all week to the next episode.) I sold that laptop in a Panera for $600. Not bad for used, but barely. My second computer was a gift from a well off would-be boyfriend who thought a huge touch screen Lenovo was the right guess. I used it to conquer Candy Crush while listening to Obama lecture from the t. v. in the adjacent room. Then, out of nowhere, this monster computer/monitor combo went dark. I knew nothing about computers, I was a chemical engineering turned English major: I had avoided computers like the plague. (It dawns on me now how my first memory of computers was in about the second or third grade where I won an award for a paragraph I wrote on a computer screen detailing my plans to sell the most school candy bars that year and win a bike. Maybe it wasn’t for my writing ability, after all??) So, the Lenovo died and I couldn’t fix it or replace it…. It’s ok, I felt I had thoroughly whooped both candy crush and candy soda crush and that must be it,so I went out back to dig in the dirt.

  @shaunmeasom @ClashofClans What an L take, nerfs are to make everyone happy. Just because you like to abuse broken stuffs, that doesn't mean everyone feels the same. If you don't like to use some braincell to play this game, you have candy crush on the playstore.

  LA metro discourse triggers psychosis. It’s not good. It’s slow, it goes halfway to nowhere, and there’s always someone in distress while cops play candy crush.

  @vrilliumlive Games like Candy Crush/match3s are time fillers. The real killer for “making babies” is everything around the baby making being broken. From the dating apps, porn addiction, financial issues etc. Not enough text to elaborate more

  @not__vee To be fair cowgirls exist. 🐮 Games can be hobby for both males and females. That's fine. Problem is trying to make all the games for both. That doesn't work because women want to play dress-up games and candy crush, while men want to crush enemies and have a cute Khajiit wife.

  @LateNightCandi_ 20-30% And im not including women who play mobile games like candy crush. Talking about real games. And I would actually agree except the last about 3-4 years has seen a massive industry wide push in high profile games and studios that feels 100% forced New ips, no issue

  You remember when Facebook was the go-to social media for gacha games back then? It's because that social media site had one huge selling point; It was the only social media that let you save your progress across devices. Say for example you upgrade your phone but need to move your account to your new device. That's where Facebook's login feature comes in for games like Clash of Clans, Candy Crush, and even those Korean gacha games.

  To cite Candy Crush and not lack of proper maternity leave, unaffordable childcare expenses, a broken healthcare system, as the reason young women are deciding not to have babies, is infinitely insulting. @BenSasse
