... Dude seriously, stop copy/pasting all those charts. It has NOTHING to do with my main points (decision being stupid and franchise being hurt in the long term)...
I never said that timed exclusivity is not hurting the sales on other platform... So, for the records, I agree with you on that, timed exclusivity hurts sales, that's a given, but not to the extends you are implying...
Byt my points are:
- Where in those charts can you see the amount that Microsoft is paying SE to cover the lost so you can "pretend" that it is a stupid decision? - Where in those charts can you see that Tomb Raider will be a dead franchise after that? Even if this iterration sell less on other platforms I'm failing to see in your charts why this would "kill" or even hurt the franchise in any way for future iterrations... And please, do not bring boycotts and blah blah blah, it is not even funny.

moving goal posts are we now? these charts have everything to do with my point. its a stupid decision because it will hurt the long term future of the franchise. it doesnt matter how much they MS are paying them, long term gain is much better than short term.
you keep coming back to the point that "you dont know the details of the deal" why? because you argument has no legs to stand on, in fact you havent proposed any argument or counter points, you keep dismissing the charts i provided, showing many examples that shows the negative effect of timed exclusivity. yet you move the goal post and try avoid them because they support my claim. while you got absolutely nothing to back you up. its pretty simple, hurting your biggest franchise in the long term for a short term gain, is stupid, and let me perfectly clear, we dont need to know the amount MS payed SE, SE are hurting their biggest franchise in the long run. the only reason you try argue with me with me is out of your own bias, you have not provided any meaningful points here what so ever. the only one pretending here, is you.
