Terry Hendrix II 🏹 on Nostr: The point is XBL is subsidized by MSFT, and is provided for games without the budget ...
The point is XBL is subsidized by MSFT, and is provided for games without the budget for even development of the APIs for such systems much less a patchwork of them and their costs. Not all studios can run their own gap-fill infrastructure even if they get funding for it somehow.
You will just go back to the gamespy era and have different network feature levels per game.
