im not assuming. it actually happened when square enix wanted to bring ff14 to xbox 360 but microsoft refused cross play with ps3 players so thats why ff14 never made it to 360. square enix said it themself

No your assuming that if Xbox was lead platform they wouldnt allow it this gen.

Just because it happen last gen doesnt make it automatically follow into next. If that was the case than PS4 would have cost the same as the PS3 and XB1 would still be bundled with Kinect. Industry changes all the time. No one cares about last gen and the egos. Thats just an excuse from gamers agasint the good will behind a company they dont like. 

But it DID follow into the next.  Microsoft was against cross-play this gen but suddenly changed their policy.  NOW it's "unhealthy."  Was it not unhealthy before?  

It sure as hell isn't "good will".  It's because NOW Microsoft can realize a benefit.
