  it's like seeing someone you know crash out from **** years ago, and now after intervention, every six weeks they have a new addiction (did you hear about candy crush?) and they just can't quite get it together.

  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.

  I really don’t like working with white trash people. “Yeah was a **** addict for 10 years but my kids are all still on drugs” I don’t care, we’re not equals. Stay away from me, I’m not going to explain how a 401k works. Go play candy crush on your Walmart phone.

  @The_Epic_Mike they really think candy crush and farmville makes them gamers the problem is that the development companies believe this too they think they can convert the candy crush crowd to AAA games, which is just pure insanity I know zero women who own a PS5 or Xbox, zero, none

  @JDCocchiarella Agreed, good riddance. Maybe address the actual issues causing a decline in birth rates instead of blaming the younger generation and “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.

  @conrat4567 Using the term “non gamers” in your own tweet sort of helps make the point that attitudes have not really shifted that much. Which is half the problem. Someone can play Candy Crush every day on their commute and will still say ‘oh my know I’m not one of *those* people’.

  @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_ They get these darn data sets that show all these female gamers but don't know its mostly Candy Crush and Bejeweled. This female tsunami of girl bosses in games is going to really help collapse a lot of AAA and Government funded devs. And Sony is having a real tough time. They keep doing this. Whats worse is these radicals pushing this in studios are unable to self-reflect and admit a mistake. Always blame anything but the real problem.

  @thomaslhorrocks @realmattcarr Then how come wealthy families, who don’t struggle for these issues, aren’t having more kids than low income? How come their numbers are down too? I think you’re missing the point he’s getting at, and you’re not smart enough to comprehend so you focus on Candy Crush.

  @CREID2852 @Empty_America Candy Crush is played a few hours a day, a huge chunk of the players way past fertility. What our society does, keep trying the same stupid solutions is the very definition of insanity. The reality is, there is not fix and we don't need one.

  @Kc1o5 And there are things I don't understand, like suddenly raising the price of Game Pass or buying things like Candy Crush...who wants to play Candy Crush besides mothers and aunts? Oh well, hopefully the new CEO can fix what they've caused these last few months

  @fishstark @BenSasse Obviously he’s not saying literally candy crush is the problem. But if you ran the experiment where one half outlawed subsidizing arrested development with useless college degrees, fake jobs, birth control, hookup apps it would dominate your half on birth rate

  @Gravantus That means you've been infected by Candy Crush, and have no mental ability to understand or overcome it. This is a real problem. Deal with it.

  @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

  @kanon06 And it shouldn't count them at all. There's a HUGE problem as a game company if you read this bs study and think your game should appeal to both the sweaty COD gamer blasting 12 hrs a day and Brenda from accounting who plays candy crush at lunchtime. Its a worthless study.

  Maybe, it’s the fact nobody can afford anything, stock buybacks, etc. not “candy crush” also, so what? Your moloch gets hungry?! Sounds like a you problem.

  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.
