The head of the Xbox division spoke with the folks at The Guardian in a more than interesting interview where some cool titles have left us, which we will surely save these days. It is normal for the manager to tour the various media after each Showcase or important event in which the brand participates.
On this occasion, Spencer discussed the perception people might have of Game Pass when compare it, again, with Netflix, where the user is inundated with a lot of content and it’s mostly garbage. Phil came back to stress the same line as the last time Polygon asked him.
Look at the statistics. The number of games that are on Game Pass versus unique videos on Netflix is very, very different. I think we are between 300 and 400 games. That’s still a lot, but we’re not trying to overwhelm you. When I get negative feedback on Game Pass, it’s because the quality isn’t what people expected. But then there’s a marginal cost for them to try something they never would have tried before. If there is a sign, it is the feeling of our players: how is the number of subscribers changing? Are the creators coming back?
Game Pass creates this pool of exciting content for us to go out and work with partners at the start of their progression. I wouldn’t call Game Pass a minimum guarantee, but obviously we’re taking a chance when these games come out because there’s money coming from the content pool, so maybe they’re aspiring to do something ‘a little different. I love it, I want to see the creativity of the creators.
About the events, he thinks people just want to watch games there
About how she felt on the show, Spencer said that she loves these types of events and somehow they are constantly on hold. monitor what the gaming community thinks
In addition, he assures that the majority of people who play video games, watch Xbox live, and who do not even know him are curious. It’s a fun experience for him.
One of the things we do in these types of programs is do an analysis of what people are interested in, we track that. It always makes me laugh, maybe it’s some kind of self ego check, how many people have absolutely no idea who I am. What is true. Most people who play video games are unaware of the game’s relationship to the studio, publisher, and platform. Most people who play just want to find a good game.
