Of course not, but I can see why you might have thought that. It has been some time since I last wrote in English. :)

What I'm trying to say is, that Microsoft is in dire need of exclusive titles that can showcase the hardware, especially Xbox One X, and as of right now, they won't be getting one from Remedy.

They already have titles showcasing X1X hardware. Ryse, Quantum Break, Forza Motorsport 7, Halo 5 and just about all 3rd games running at a native 4k. 

Sure Remedy's next game wont be until next gen however i see the X has already made its mark and its not only the most powerful console on the market, its also the smallest Xbox ever made. Its a pretty convenient peice of hardware and a good pedestal for the brand to stand on.

Well, that's subjective. I don't think the titles you have listed showcase the Xbox One X. Heck, I would have said the same thing about the Playstation 4 Pro, had I not played God of War and Horizon: Zero Dawn on the system. Both games are excellent at showcasing the Playstation 4 Pro, and more importantly they justify its existence. But I totally respect your opinion. 

That is if we assume Remedy will make an exclusive for Microsoft's next generation hardware. The fact of the matter is that neither of us know - how about we just leave it at that?

Of course it is, but can you wholeheartedly say that Xbox One X comes across as the most powerful console on the market, when comparing the visual fidelity of its games to titles like God of War and Horizon: Zero Dawn on the Playstation 4 Pro? Sure power is nice, but what difference does it make when it isn't utilised?
