What they failed to realise is that this was MS' own greed and one they have tried to remedy since then.
Look at how close they were in 2019 before the release of the f2p COD:Warzone in 2020, even with the massive install base differences. MS limited the customers of the new game to half of xbox owners which was already small but generating just as much. They only remedied that greed/fault in April 2021. It would be interesting to see 2022 numbers now.
Deekes charts have an asterisk, they maybe be accurate but remember that the 2019 and 2021 data for MS to going to be upper limits. He/They know that it caps out at 10% of ABK revenue but it could be lower.
Wouldn't solve the issue until we get the 2022 data, it's not really about the specific games.Chile failed to look at recent data again. Modern warfare released in 2019 before next gen consoles. Why didn't they look at Modern Warfare 2 in 2022? Not enough data? look at Cold war or Vanguard. It's pretty telling when you need to go back 4 games to a specific xbox one title to paint a picture of no incentive. Then you look at the revenue from 2019 times and see it really wasn't that different anyway.
I would be interested to see what the actual source for the Chile data is.
