    Anyone surprised? MS is one of the shadiest companies out there. Google gathering user data? “Don’t get scroogled!” Microsoft account required for windows 11? That’s completely different. Gamers in particular just fell for their self-imposed image as the good guys because of Game pass and constantly bashing their competitors.

    If I remember correctly, it was them first charging for online services under Xbox Live Gold for functionality that was usually free on PC.
