Following the news that they have no major releases planned until April, 2025:

Looking at Microsoft’s line up, I feel like 2024 is shaping up to be a “meh” year for the platform exclusives overall. Most of what I’m curious about are the 3rd party titles.

To be honest it's been kinda meh for the past few years. There have been a couple of exceptions, but even Nintendo has been under delivering (I personally thought Mario wonder and TOTK were just okay).

Its quite the meh generation. Which is sad, considering the consoles this gen actually had some grunt.

We had great games in 2022 and 2023 because we finally caught up to the COVID delays. It's gonna be slim pickins now as companies adjust.

We did? Please name some that aren't Baulder's Gate cause I feel like I had nothing worth playing the last two years beyond the Spider-Man games on PC.

There are lots of great games. There's no need for more games! Shut it all down everyone go look at a leaf

To paraphrase Devon Banks: I'm gonna shut it down. Think how much people will need lightbulbs then!

(Also; I sold the E to Samsung. They're Samesung now.)
