That's not accurate, there were reports of Microsoft actually not being hands on enough with Arkane, of devs even hoping MS cancels Redfall, but MS being so afraid of doing what they did with 343 and others companies they just let them do whatever basically. |

I do want to defend that I'm right in spirit however - Arkane was receiving pressure from Zenimax (it's parent company) from even before the buyout. Microsoft didn't reverse that decision, and I think it was likely Arkane was still pressured to make/release a game they never would have made otherwise. I think the same idea of external pressure and short-termism still apply, and that's indicative of where the industry as a whole is.
