This is the type of horrendous practice that gaming does not need. People are missing the point. Small indies don't have resources to do 2 platforms at once, numerous devs have complained about this. It is a way to try and force smaller devs to either follow MS rules, and either launch on x1 first and have nothing extra for other platforms, or do without MS indie program all together. This is dispicable imo, anti developer, and anti consumer. What's sadder is people defending this.

This is one of the reasons many indies have soured on MS, see another one on twitter not happy, saying this needs to go if MS wants good relations with developers.
