I can’t fathom their strategy at this point. Sales for the system are so bad that Costco removed the console from shelves. So they increased prices again. And now this? Microsoft really should just announce they’re getting out of gaming.

Microsoft must be hurting after buying Activision-Blizzard so they're looking into underhanded tactics to recoup on those lost revenues

The thing is the more they price hike the subscription the less appealing the subscription becomes to the masses

We're talking about millions of people, that means they literally lose more money with shameless greed than letting the subscription price stayvthe same

They're milking the niche they have because they know they can't grow any larger. Lots of simulation games are like that. Eventually you will spend the same amount as an actual car to get all the trains for this game before the sequel comes out. Sims does it so often it's sort of hilarious. The entire painted miniature battle scene is like this.

Internet go drdr and 3D Printer go brrrrdddrrr

It’s the DarkSydePhil strategy, they just need to find a few whales to keep them afloat.
