Why is Titanfall Considered a Big Exclusive for XB1 but FFXIV not for PS4?

Both games are on the PC and last gen system. But for some reason people here and in general dont reconize that FF XIV is every bit as exclusive for the PS4 as Titanfall is for the XB1. Both games have just cosmetic differences from the last gen counterpart and the PS4 version of ARR actually has visual parity with the PC version.

In fact I would say FF is a bigger deal than some new shooter in a saturated market. FF IV ARR is the only true good MMO that plays well on a console, and lets not forget the fact it is an entry from one of the oldest franchises in gaming. Shooters are a dime a dozen these days.

I think the answer goes something like this. MS NEEDED Titanfall to be a system seller where as Sony is having trouble keeping up with demand as is and did not need to waste millions of dollars to hype it into oblivion.

Because Titanfall was a new game comming out only on X1 and PC with "revolutionary" first person combat that let you do so many cool things like wall run, play in giant mechs, ext.

FFXIV is a solid MMORPG that had already been out for several months on PC and PS3, so people who really wanted to play it already had played it.  

Also, while Shooters are commonly played on consoles by millions of people around the world, MMOs don't have as big of a fanbase on consoles, are are traditionally played on PC as a mouse and key board is typically easier to play them with.
