It has been a decade without progress

Xbox has been out for over a decade but people in Indonesia are still not afforded the ability to purchase your products legally. They are forced to buy black market games and use fake game pass accounts and VPN's if they want to use their consoles. Trying
to figure out if it is because you are lazy, xenophobic, misinformed or just stupid that you have not made your product legally available to a market of 260 million people.

Believe it or not, it's none of those. I'm sure as a company Microsoft would like to offer its services everywhere. The fact of the matter is that it's a very complicated task for companies - even billion dollar corporations like Microsoft - to set up operations
in new countries.

They can't just decide to launch it, flick a switch and it's done. They need to work with government, regulators, local and national laws, get the infrastructure set up to make it 'legal' in a given territory. Nothing to do with laziness, racism/xenophobia.

Very well put. There is a LOT involved and sometimes can take years.

Gaming has been mainstream for over a decade.

My expectation wasn't high and i wasn't impressed at all (Most of Destiny has been known for months :gameplay,designs,....)....I already played it a decade ago but it was called PSU and was more original and fun....

It will be hit but without me.
