Well Bethesda was already going to shit and killed all the good will they had gained over the years.

Who knows maybe Windows won't release bug riddled games and expect paying players to basically be their beta testers while expecting them to love it.

it's Microsoft, they are still finding bugs with windows 95, this won't make Bethesda any better.

Bethesda was run by GS GMs?

Could mean future Fallout/Elder Scrolls titles going straight to Gamepass on launch. That's pretty big.

Isn't this pretty much all games these days though? I can't remember the last time I played a game at release that wasn't full of bugs and basically being a paid beta.

Microsoft only does XBox exclusives from studios they created. You’ll still have Bethesda games on PS. The cash injection might get shit moving along at Bethesda too.

Not completely accurate. Rare has been exclusive for years, while Obsidian and Ninja Theory's upcoming releases seem to be exclusive - they weren't created by MS, just bought. That being said I also doubt FO/TES will go exclusive.
