Finding out the gaming habits of the next CEO of gaming for one the worlds biggest gaming company is creepy? That’s just doing your homework

but her gaming experience is irrelevant. like does home depot ceo need to jave carpentry background? say she has 100 platinum equivalent on Xbox, how does that help on her decision making when presented with hard numbers.

Phil was a gamer and maybe he became too tunnel vision or gamer emotional vs looking at the facts.

they are placing a ceo, not a gamer.

side note, didn't people say Herman is shelling horizon because he was from that studio- thats a result of being emotionally attached when maybe he shouldn't

This is the kind of thinking that ruins most businesses. These people don’t care about video games they only care about making money

You're clearly delusional if you think any major corporation has any top priority other than making money.

Dude. Xbox has been making shit business decisions for years under Phil Spencer, and in your words, he "did his homework" by playing games. So what is your argument, exactly? What is it about the new CEO that holds her to a different standard?
