Microsoft aren't to blame for Redfall. Redfall started development in 2018 but Microsoft didn't buy them til 2021. Redfall sucks because Arkane Austin made a bad game without any input from MS.
Microsoft didn't close all their studios either. In fact they've barely closed any actual studios that have made xbox games. They closed ones that were bad though. Lionhead closed because Fable Legends was bad. I was in the beta, and it was not a good game. It would have absolutely flopped and killed the studio. They closed Ensemble almost 15 years ago. That's about it really.
Devs can do no wrong, it's always the publishers.
Well in that case it’s still not Microsoft, it’s Bethesda.
