Had Sony purchased Bethesda, games would have become exclusive for Playstation gamers; therefore benefiting them in not losing the ability to play them. With Microsoft purchasing Bethesda it ensured Xbox gamers would not lose the ability to play them on an Xbox. That seems quite beneficial.

Thinking that if Sony had purchased Bethesda and would continue to release all titles on Xbox is not very realistic.

Similar was said about Bungie. Destiny and future games will be multiplatform though, under Sony. 

It helps Game Pass in the near future, but could help XB owners in the far future, if Game Pass truly takes off and becomes the main source for console gaming. Then you would likely see MS selling considerably more XB consoles than PS consoles, and most of them being the cheaper model, like the Series S now.

If Game Pass doesn't take off, then it's only going to be a big benefit to XB owners if those games are all made exclusive, otherwise what was the point?
