@Kaloudz Kudos on the healthy perspective. It's definitely better for the mental health.
Just reminded me about the whole Moviepass thing back when that went viral. At the end, people were frustrated and angry at how that ship sunk, instead of accepting that it really was just too good to last anyway.
The only issue with Series S is that it takes more time, money, and resources for developers to do a good downgraded port on it. No different than trying to make a good port for the Steam Deck or the Switch.
The fact that Alan Wake 2 runs well on the Series S is very telling that it's a capable enough machine.
Reasons why Microsoft might benefit SEGA if they were acquired by them...
Microsoft is more willing to do multiplatform games than Nintendo or Sony, which will probably apply the most to Sonic (and Persona, Yakuza, VF?)
SEGA has always had a problem with the money when it comes to gaming and was one of the main reasons they called it quits with hardware. Microsoft as their bank helps with that.
Before they went 3rd party, SEGA took a lot of risks in the kinds of games they made. Out of the big three, Microsoft is the one who is also willing to take risks releasing different kinds of games.
I miss the Sega of 20+ years ago, before it became a shadow of it's former self. Somebody like Microsoft could be the boost it needs to try and grab some of that former gaming glory. Heck it was Xbox that was first in line in supporting Sega when they dropped the Dreamcast.
