Summary
The article critiques Xbox CEO Asha Sharma's statement that Xbox aims to serve "more than a billion people each day" — a target 24 times larger than Steam's peak concurrent users. The author argues this goal is delusional and disconnected from reality, especially given that the statement appeared in a post announcing studio closures and layoffs affecting thousands of workers. The piece contrasts Xbox's ambitious rhetoric with the harsh realities of the gaming industry's current state.
