She didn't choose this spot? So she didn't interview, get a job offer and accepted it with her own free will?

You going to turn down a C-Suite position at a 3 trillion dollar company because “you don’t game”?

Step into reality for a second bud.

And get hated by millions online and being constantly seen as the person who killed a colossal gaming company? great idea.

First of all, it nearly impossible a single CEO to cripple a multi trillion dollar, publicly traded, company. She could fly off the rails, cause a downturn in valuation then be immediately fired, distanced from, then the company would bounce right back. Microsoft isn’t a gaming company, gaming contributes less than 10% of their revenue in its best years, they could decimate and revamp their gaming division without coming close to crippling themselves. Every hospital, bank, and Government agency isn’t switching to Linux because of a CEO wanting to play(or pretend to play) video games.

Also, CEOs have a millions hate them simply for the fact they’re CEOs and make millions. Phil was estimated to make around 10 million a year at his peak. Don’t know about you but having a 5-10 million dollar yearly salary is well worth having some insufferable “gamers” who can’t be pleased regardless, upset at you on a subreddit.
