  @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.

  @Zengeku @ShitpostRock2 The issue is that Candy Crush is a bad example of a video game. It's like saying Garfield is a comic. Yeah, it is. But most people who talk about comics are thinking about X-Men or Spiderman, not Garfield.

  If you're being disruptive, that's a loud music and inconsiderate ******* problem, not a video game problem. Just, wear ******* headphones. But the only people who don't do that are literally boomers. The amount of unmuted Candy Crush I've heard from women pushing 70 is absurd.

  @Hammertimeeeee @pete_scanlon Hi 🐷! Hilarious that a stupid high school educated 🐷 is telling someone to “research” something. 🐷 are the stupidist members of society. Incidently, I don’t have a problem with this. It’s better that a dumb violent 🐷 be playing Candy crush than violating someone’s rights ACAB

  The new boss of Xbox took one of its biggest games and put it on PlayStation, the console its arch-rival sells. It sounds like a mistake. Instead, it became the best-selling new game on PlayStation last year and has passed 5 million copies, beating Sony's own new games. That single move tells you what Asha Sharma is really doing. She took over Xbox in February 2026, after Phil Spencer, who had run it for years, retired. At Bloomberg's tech conference this week, an interviewer asked what winning would look like by 2030. Her answer was blunt: the number one gaming and entertainment company in the world. Xbox is not there yet. She even called the business "not in a healthy spot," with sales falling in four of the last six quarters. So she stopped trying to win the old fight. For decades, consoles worked one way: you keep your best games locked to your own machine, so people have to buy it to play them. Sony does this better than anyone, selling close to three PlayStations for every Xbox. Sharma looked at those odds and walked away. Now she sells Xbox's games to the people who already bought a PlayStation, and last year Forza, Doom, Indiana Jones, and a stack of others showed up on Sony's console. A 70 dollar game brings in the same 70 dollars no matter whose machine you play it on. The bigger prize is reach. A few years back, Microsoft paid 75.4 billion dollars for the company behind Call of Duty and Candy Crush, the most expensive deal gaming has ever seen. Candy Crush alone has more than 200 million players a month, most of them on their phones, not on an Xbox. Count every phone, PC, console, and TV, and a Microsoft game now reaches over 500 million people a month. Sony's online network reaches 132 million. Her other moves point the same way. She cut the price of Game Pass, the monthly games subscription that works like Netflix, after admitting last year's price jump had chased people off. Sign-ups started climbing again. She scrapped an Xbox AI assistant because players did not want it and it solved no real problem. And she revealed the next Xbox, a machine built to play both Xbox games and PC games. None of this is a sure thing. The chips Xbox needs keep getting pricier instead of cheaper, because the AI boom is buying them up, and Sony still crushes Xbox on console sales. What Sharma has done is change the scoreboard. She is racing to reach the most players on every device that exists, and by that count, Xbox already sits near the top.

  @MR3Dev It's because dev teams are bloated with a bunch of fake girl boss jobs for non-gamers. Because so many devs now are non-gamers, they can't compete in the arena of ideas regarding design and gameplay. Cause the only game they ever played was Candy Crush. So they instead focus on every possible thing possible EXCEPT gameplay because they don't understand it. This is why we get such a push for accessibility. "Blind people aren't competitive in our racing game, how can we solve this?" Or "some people have anxiety, how do we make it easier for them to complete all the achievements, too?" These non-gaming girl bosses scour the internet looking for feedback and complaints they can champion like they're feeding the poor or saving the world. This is why we end up with 15 page options screens, because a girl boss found the one person n the world who has a specific edge case issue and so she advocated for an obscure option until real devs finally gave in to shut her up. Or maybe you're making a card game, but non-gaming girl bosses like Anita Sarkeesian demand you add a "phobia mode" for people who might be triggered by the names of certain cards. When you're trying to ship a game and you're carry 30-50% of a dev team focused on everything EXCEPT the gameplay experience itself, you can start to understand why games are so ******* expensive to make.

  @CandyCrushSaga my problem with y’all is that this “RNG” in y’all’s game is so fake. When I have the gold bars, I never am in a good position at the end of the level to spend them, but the moment I don’t? I end the game with 5 color bombs, wrapped, striped candy, etc. Fix that

  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.

  @EAMaddenNFL Beta testing showing @EAMaddenNFL @EASPORTS still don’t know how to build franchise features. FA looks like another Candy Crush gambling loop borrowed from MUT. People want to play as NFL GMs, not get pushed into app-style mechanics. Same issue as scouting: boring and bare bones.

  $MSFT ’s Xbox Reset Is Bigger Than 3,200 Layoffs Microsoft is cutting roughly 3,200 jobs from Xbox, about one-fifth of the division, and the market should not file this under ordinary tech cost discipline. This looks more like a failed growth model being forcibly repriced. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma put it bluntly in the internal memo: “Our business today is not healthy.” Then the line that matters: “We must reset XBOX.” The real issue is Game Pass Microsoft spent years trying to turn Xbox into a subscription flywheel. Buy studios, add content, push Game Pass, smooth revenue, increase lifetime value, and make gaming look more like recurring software. That was the theory. The problem is the numbers never matched the ambition. Game Pass was reportedly expected to reach around 77 million subscribers this year. It is closer to 30 million. That gap is not a rounding error. It tells you the product did not scale anywhere near the internal model Microsoft was underwriting. M&A did not fix the economics The Activision Blizzard deal was supposed to deepen the content moat and make Game Pass harder to ignore. Instead, Microsoft is now selling or spinning off studios, cutting more than 350 additional people from payroll, and publishing fewer games. That is not expansion mode. That is portfolio triage. Sharma is shifting capital toward the franchises that actually matter: Minecraft, Candy Crush, Fallout. Everything else has to earn its place. The margin told management the truth Xbox revenue fell in the March quarter, and the division’s profit margin was just 3% for the fiscal year that ended in June. For a company like Microsoft, that is a brutal number. It is especially brutal when the parent company is pouring capital into AI infrastructure, where the market is already demanding proof of returns. Low-margin gaming experiments become harder to defend when Azure and AI are carrying the equity story. The stock read This is probably not a Microsoft thesis-breaker. Xbox is not the core reason investors own MSFT. But it is a useful signal about capital discipline. Nadella is not letting weak consumer assets hide behind the strength of enterprise cloud. The bottom line: these layoffs are not the reset. They are the evidence that the old Xbox strategy already failed.

  @balatroist @KevinCastley @grok When you don’t have an argument. You either strawman or just hurl insults. You haven’t made a single coherent rebuttal . Other than Oh Yeah what about xxxxx. In lieu actually addressing the issue. This isn’t your strong suit. Maybe find something else to do. Try midget porn maybe or candy crush. I hear that’s popular.

  @Fernan1393 @prettyantipod The Internet just keeps getting shittier. Before it was just the nerds who knew how to get a modem working. Then it was the people who could afford cable and a computer. Then it was the libtards who could buy an iPhone. And then it got to the point even grandma had a phone for Candy Crush and Facebook. The DV is just the talk radio fanbase escaping containment from Facebook as radio dies and transitions to streaming. Except without the awareness that the Internet needs to stay on the Internet, because there was always that one crazy person on a forum or a Usenet group who would totally visit you and stab you in the face if he could put an address to your username.
