What kind of games do you play?
For me personally, it's the same. I'm looking forward to the next Forza games, the AoM remake/remaster and I'm initrigued to see how State of Decay 3, Fable and Everwild turn out. But overall this list doesn't do much for me. I'd like to see more arcadey and accessible stuff like Crackdown, Grounded or Hi-Fi Rush.
I'd love more stuff like a big budget crackdown, I was disappointed with 3 but went back and played 1 and enjoyed it despite it being dated. Fable is a big one for me, loved that game since the first Xbox. Forza I used to love but once they added in wheelspin/luck games to get rewards it ruined the experience for me with money being thrown at me within 30 mins of starting the game, already hated the wheelspin shit in horizon but figured that they may keep that stuff out of the motorsport stuff now so interested to try it at least. Hi-if rush I played a couple of hours off and did enjoy so that's on my backlog for sure. Other than that there's nothing that interested me. I am totally interested in avowed now they've said they didn't want to be Skyrim.
The issues even necessarily the type of game either, I love RPGs and games in the style of quantum break or stuff like that but for whatever reason the worlds and styles of them that are being made on Xbox aren't clicking with me and aren't my style. I hate zombie games and find them unbelievably boring. Don't like halo, don't like gears. I hate elder scrolls and honestly if Bethesda (the publisher) have put out a game in the last 15 years I'd like then I haven't found it and I've tried almost all of them.
Like I said, I'm glad for those that do like them but for me, Microsoft first party being a lot of Bethesda games these days has absolutely made the first party offerings far worse for me by and large because they're going to always be a decent size part of them, on top of filling the gamepass catalogue with more of them.
