I just think some of the arguments being made are beyond petty, "such and such company does this, so why shouldn't this company?". They do, they always have. If you think this is about anything other than money and control, be real. I am actually fine with whatever happens. I do not play any Activision games and the Blizzard ones I do are either out, announced or long since out on other platforms. Even then I can sign up to PC Gamepass and instead of paying £60 for a new game, I can pay £1.

Yet, MS are not some underdog in the console/games industry. They are the 2nd biggest tech company in the world. They once tried to buy Nintendo. They are not your friend.

Can't see how any prior acquisitions would have the same impact as this. Most that have already happened have not had any direct impact on competing platforms. The bethesda one is the first to really make a difference and thats only once Starfield was announced as exclusive, but even that is understandable and not really "lost" as its never been on other platforms. With franchises like COD though, if it was lost to Sony/PS its major. Some people only play COD exclusively. So its a major deal for a great deal of players.
