I just don't get it. How does the game end up getting a lifetime exclusivity to MS platforms without their approval? Clearly if Respawn owns the IP, EA can't just make such an exclusivity deal without the permission of Respawn.
In that case, Respawn clearly WANTED the game to be exclusive to MS platforms for whatever reason. So, why don't they just come out and admit that rather than dancing around the topic giving vaguely defensive answers such as "We didn't know" and "We didn't sell it", and following them up with "We own the IP". This is getting ridiculous.
