    yes, this is the part where I gave up trying to say

    “Hey it’s bad these guys make their games exclusive, pc players and xbox players and whatever should all be able to play these games”

    because now fuck it, why bother. pc players and xbox players do not care as soon as they got theirs. they won’t show the same support as soon as they get their games.

    Why should I show support for players on other systems, if players on other systems will not show the same support back?

      pc players and xbox players do not care as soon as they got theirs.

      Sony players don’t care as long as they get theirs

      Nintendo players don’t care as long as they get theirs

      Who cares? Fans will be fans.

        I used to, you generally saw the sentiment of “this isn’t good for us, we dont’ want this”, now everyone is suddenly okay with one company owning all this stuff because it comes out on pc.

        It’s hard to care about people complaining about exclusivity anymore, because they only care when it affects them personally.

      Thats arguing in bad faith, given that even after the buyout, Zenimax still produced games on the other devices. Arkane Lyon (deathloop), ID interactive (Doom), Tango Gameworks(Ghost Wire Tokyo), Mojang(Minecraft) and auch still produced games for other consoles, despite being owned by Microsoft.

      Microsoft puts its developers games on other devices more often than the reverse. Its only within the past few years that Sonys been putting about half of its titles on PC.

        Most of those were preexisting contracts they needed to fulfill. You’re the one who’s arguing in bad faith.

          Emphasis in most, they still put effort into doing so, more so than the reverse, who doesnt even touch the console side.

        It won’t fulfill your apparent need to have people pat you on the tummy and say you are a good boy but:

        Okay, we know where your head is. but i’m going to engage anyway just to say that i’m looking for solidarity, and not finding it. I’m finding selfishness. Previously I was in support of not having things exclusive, I didn’t want it, It didn’t benefit me. but I’m not seeing that support back from pc gamers like you.

        Do you think it’s okay for me to say “it’s okay for final fantasy games to be exclusive to one system, you should have bought a playstation”. are you happy with that statement?
