What if Microsoft never reversed the original Xbox One Policy?

[Talal86]

You know the always online DRM, no used games, Mandatary Kinect, etc..

would the ‘gaming industry’ be in a different state right now? do you think people overreacted, and they would’ve gotten over it eventually?

or do you think that the original concept was destined to fail, and the Xbox one would've flopped even harder had they stuck with that policy?

also keep in mind that pre-Phil Spencer Microsoft were aggressive about their exclusives, so I think their lineup of games would’ve been different, and they would’ve probably bought 3rd party exclusives a la Rise of the Tomb Raider and Titanfall, so in that department they could’ve gave Ps4 a challenge and not an easy victory
