Microsoft shutting down a few studios today should be an eye opener for the people that are rooting for MS. It's a good reminder that it's NEVER a good thing when a massive company buys a smaller company.
Either that smaller company will slowly get worse or dissolve completely. There was a trend of people saying they should buy companies to save them and let them do their own thing, but thankfully I expect to see less of that now...
While we're on the topic I also want to remind people that this is why you shouldn't support Xbox Game Pass. The plan has always been to get as much people onboard as possible, then a long-term goal of getting people comfortable with not owning games (we're getting there with Games-as-a-service anyways), then the inevitable rug-pull where they raise prices and sabotage the service for profits.
Just kidding. I was trying to see how destructive this can be. It keeps spamming new windows that are always on top until your computer freezes, and it overrides any quit signal like ALT+F4 so you can't get rid of it. Neat, huh?
