Actually, MS can (and will) do whatever they want with both their own home grown content, and whatever content they buy on the street. I would recommend you to not let that upset you too much because it is a reality you simply cannot change.

Actually, WB Games can (and will) do whatever they want with both their own home grown content, and whatever content they buy on the street. I would recommend you to not let that upset you too much because it is a reality you simply cannot change.

Actually, EA can (and will) do whatever they want with both their own home grown content, and whatever content they buy on the street. I would recommend you to not let that upset you too much because it is a reality you simply cannot change.

Actually, Activision/Blizzard can (and will) do whatever they want with both their own home grown content, and whatever content they buy on the street. I would recommend you to not let that upset you too much because it is a reality you simply cannot change.

All it takes is a simple change of the company doing the scumbaggery to highlight how silly your comment was. MS is just as bad as EA, or Activision/Blizzard, or WB games.

I would also add there:

Last I checked Sony doesn't inject MTX into every one of their games like WB. They don't take beloved franchises and try to shoehorn them into pathetic mobile offerings like Activision. They don't buy up 3rd party studios and then slowly run them into the ground ala EA. Also, what content has Sony bought on the street? Or are you like others that can't see the difference between buying a studio that has almost exclusively developed games for your platform for 25 years, and buying a studio that was 3rd party multiplat for 14 years?

If Epic games had bought out Bethesda, and now we were all having a discussion about whether or not Bethesda games would simply be delayed on Steam, or never coming to Steam at all, the conversation would be completely different. Everyone would be on the same page that Epic games was doing a scummy thing. But because console warz, MS doing the exact same thing receives praise.

And just to bring this all back to the original topic. Despite their rapid pace of acquisitions MS STILL doesn't have anything for the new Xbox line until at least after April. Meanwhile Nintendo is still surviving off it's 2019 games blowout, and Sony has had the best launch lineup in the history of their brand.

You're still missing my point. Regardless of how we feel about EA, Epic, Activision, MS, or Sony; at the end of the day, they will do whatever they want with their property, so it really is not healthy to let that get too much into our skins.

And yes, Microsoft have had their biggest launch ever, and we don't even know what the ceiling would have been if they had had enough stock; which again, is already proving Phil right, regardless of how we feel about it.
