| Nem said: I honestly don't think theres anything anti-consumer about it. So, yeah, those are things that matter to me. Cross play doesn't. |
"I honestly don't think theres anything anti-consumer about it."
>If the consumer is asking for it and it's not implemented, I consider it anti-consumer. It becomes a bigger deal when Sony's competitors are moving forward with crossplay. Even some third party devs are asking for it since it imposes less restrictions on those who play their game.
"Playstation consumers don't really gain anything from being connected to X1 and SW. It's the ones with the smaller online communities that benefit.
So, without having some sort of advantage for playstation users i don't see why it would even be pro-consumer for Sony to do it. Pro-consumer to rivals customers? Yeah, sure. But why should they care?"
>PS owners do stand to benefit: instead of only having 80 million other potential players to play with, they can have an additional 54 million potential players to play with via crossplay for a total of 134 million potential players.
"Xbox isn't nor ever was more pro-consumer than Sony."
>XBox didn't hijack anyone's Fortnite account last I checked.
"We just need to think back about who started malpractices with DLC and season passes and how supportive Microsoft was of it. Also, they themselves created the online play pay wall and must we recall how it was in the unveil of the X1?"
>I appreciate the history lesson but is this supposed to absolve Sony of any of their own current faulty policies?
