| Mr Puggsly said: There are a lot of anecdotal stories about people like yourself that will no longer buy Xbox. |
I never said I won't be buying an Xbox, there is just less incentive to buy one.
I will buy whatever next-gen console has the best hardware, brand name be damned.
| Mr Puggsly said: But again, the big picture is there may be more revenue appealing to the large PC audience that wouldnt buy consoles or a Xbox period. |
Microsoft is trying to sell services, that isn't going to work on PC. PC is all about Steam.
Fact is, there is less appeal in buying an Xbox if you can get all your games on PC... And Microsoft encouraging non-microsoft owned developers to port games to PC is just even less reason to buy an Xbox and even less potential revenue Microsoft misses out on.
Besides, contrary to popular belief... Many PC gamers also own consoles, why would a PC gamer own a PC and an Xbox? They wouldn't. - But there is certainly reasons for owning a PC and a Switch and to a lesser extent... A Playstation 4. (Even the bulk of that consoles library is on PC as well)
| Mr Puggsly said: Thus far, there just isnt much evidence supporting PC hurts console sales in a big way. Especially when multiplat games keep doing great on Playstation and Xbox. |
Microsoft knows what it is doing, they aren't a 1.2 Trillion dollar company for nothing.
I can only provide my own anecdotes, much like yourself on this front.
