This was a support branch, only had a handful of people actually working on it, and was in one of the most expensive states during a time where most multinational companies are looking to divest from the United States due to our current political turmoil. The main dev team is based on China, and are still working on it.

I think it has less to do with the tech itself and more to do with the fact that people are becoming more insolation from non-bias confirmation due to the proliferation of social media in general. It used to be that you had to reconcile you're own beliefs and actions against those you lived and worked with so that you could live productively. Now, you can get validation for anything after a few button presses. This makes people less tolerant overall, as well as giving them echo chambers to reinforce whatever they want.
I'll have to let my wife know. She loved those games.
Yeah, I have to agree. MS has always been a software company with a hardware habit. And Phil finally spent enough that MS had to take notice. Now, he's scrambling to make a ROI for that purchase and he's doing the SEGA playbook.
