People tend to forgot what they want to forget. Like how when PS wanted cross-play and MS didn’t join. Now everyone thinks Sony is evil. If we don’t get cross-play does it really change anything? Can you not still log on and play the game with other people? When MS didn’t agree to cross-play I just kept playing games on my PS3. I didn’t take to the internet to cry about it. 

There's literally no valid way to defend Sony in this instance.  It's just interesting to see the turn around from both companies this generation. Last generation you had cross play with titles such as Final Fantasy XI across PC,PS2 and Xbox 360, was pretty awesome. This generation in order to defend Sony people have to bring up ''Well well this one time Sony asked this and Microsoft said no'', which somehow justifies Sony's current arrogance.  People back last gen had the right to criticize and even give Microsoft the same level of hate that they're giving Sony now, but to use that old excuse as a crutch to prop up Sony and damage control for them is pretty folly to me too. 

 

Sony has messed up in their decision to cross-platform play this generation, that may change and it may not, it's still a screw up, so the other two companies are just going to capitalize on it and band together for certain titles, smart business move overall and hopefully it continues. Then by the NEXT generation in a few years,hopefully all three companies will be doing cross play together and all three get over their own individual arrogance

Not defending Sony. It’s messed up that people can’t transport their Epic accounts from Sony to other consoles. But Fortnite and Minecraft have thriving online communities and you’ll feel no ill effects nor benefit from not having or having Sony players online with other consoles. MS and Nintendo are smart for making this PR move but ultimately it’s not gonna boost them past Sony. In a few months no one will care about this because it’s quite pointless. I wish I weren’t a Sony fan because that fact almost makes my opinion moot. Although I’ve had the same stance on cross-play no matter which company doesn’t want to participate.
