This thread makes no sense to me. "Why is Age of Empires exclusive to PC if phil spencer cares about exclusives"?

If this was on Xbox One and PC, this entire website would be bashing Microsoft for not having exclusives for Xbox. Putting it on Xbox would just meant it wasn't an exclusive because it would also have to be on PC. Unless you're saying it should be exclusive to Xbox and not on PC? I honestly don't get it. If Phil Spencer cared about exclusives for Xbox .. then putting AoE on Xbox wouldn't do anything because it wouldn't be an exclusive. If you want it exclusive to Xbox then that makes no sense ... it's a PC-oriented game. All this shows me is that MS is actually doing something decent and making a game around it's platform, not around a dumb ecosystem.

As much as makes no sense when Phil promises exclusives for X1 and release basically nothing (even if we ignore that Play Anywhere makes it basically have no exclusive).

Yeah I agree...but this thread is specifically referencing Age of Empires when that's not a problem for AoE, it's a problem for other games like GoW or Forza. It's a problem with Xbox not AoE, the game not being on Xbox is arguably a positive.
