    I love how you can barely see it at all 🥰
    Just noticed the image in the tweet looks like the old dashboard. Tiles take up much less space now so should see a bit more than that 😁
    Stoke me a clipper, I'll be back for Christmas... Whatever!

    I really love these dynamic backgrounds, I have the Cyberpunk 2077 one currently and it surely makes the dashboard greater to look at.

    I like the concept of the dynamic backgrounds, but too many appear to be a pic with a little bit of dust or 2-3 snowflakes slightly moving. Not very dynamic. Using Cyber Punk now, but may end up going back to my FF9 Vivi achievement background where he was summoning one of the fire spells.

    If only my XBox dashboard wasn’t full of garbage and ads and I could see such a background…

    I wish that if you left your dashboard idle for a few minutes the tiles would disappear and leave you with your dynamic background alone as a screensaver; when you press a button, your dash returns to normal.
    Whoa I LOVE this idea!!! I wonder if this has ever been suggested as feedback via the Insiders program? It seems like it would strike a good middle ground between MSFT wanting advertisements and store tiles on the main dash and players wanting to see their backgrounds.
    I third this idea! Just as long as it could fade in and out, or move around a bit more, to protect my OLED. shock
    I'd like a slideshow mode where you could select the ones I like and adjust time for new slide.

    A nice 4k mountain scene Beats any of these. I'm also hesitant to have a home page drain some additional power lol .

    Ps4 had some dope ones, completely changed the UI and added music. Badass, I just use the one is just continues waves. laugh

    I also wish the themes weren't at 15 FPS, would love smoother animations. Maybe FFXIV will get a good one.

    Dynamic theme: Beautiful backgrounds covered by lots of ugly tiles. What's the point? roll

    Seriously. In a way it might be the worst thing about XBox as it’s such a fixable issue and they adamantly refuse.

    I like the Cyberpunk one so far. I also think the background idea bore would be nice. And I wish you could have it change after 30seconds or so on auto
    That is interesting, was the crossbow gone?
