PSA: Do Not Factory Reset Your Xbox

Ironically, a factory reset of your Xbox is one of Microsoft's go-to methods when issues arise, which means that their support team might have inadvertently caused many of the issues faced by many Xbox owners at the moment.

Microsoft's gaming arm hasn't had the best time lately. The Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X are seriously lagging behind its competition in terms of sales, relying on the competition's price hikes for a boost and the number of noteworthy launch titles on Game Pass has slowed down considerably lately. To make matters worse, the list of video game developers who are becoming more vocal about the challenges they face in developing for the Xbox Series S is growing, with Funcom delaying Dune: Awakening consoles because of the extra time it's taking to optimize the game on the economically priced console.

With Phil Spencer releasing tone-deaf statements regarding how many potentially exclusive titles he had let slip by, Mike Ybarra throwing shade at Xbox, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle headed to PlayStation, the only good thing happening with anything related to Xbox lately is Starfield.

Bethesda Game Studios' controversial AAA space epic is slowly becoming more like the game that it was promised to be. After its most recent update, players are now coming back to enjoy the game that pretty much the entire internet vilified at this point last year. The upcoming expansion, Shattered Space, is also generating hype, potentially helping the Xbox exclusive title stage a comeback.
