It's not that I don't want them to have WRPG's to compete, I just rather they try and build new studios from the ground up for WRPG's, or build a 2nd WRPG team at Guerilla to go alongside Horizon. If Sony were to get Larian or CD Projekt, their games would for sure go PS exclusive (maybe Larian woukd negotiate to stay multiplat during the acquisition talks like Bungie did, but it's not a sure thing). So me wanting Xbox to acquire them is more so about wanting even more good RPG's to play on Gamepass (my favorite game genre by far) and wanting to keep them on Xbox full stop, than it is about not wanting Sony fans to get to play them. Would be more than happy with Xbox acquiring them to get them on Gamepass but keeping them multiplat so Sony fans can still play their fantastic games. |
I get you I guess PS players are probably feeling the same way and hoping Sony buys all their favorite IP (if even just for leverage). That being said The Witcher and Elder Scrolls IP are imo not reproducible - even if Sony takes all their studios and asks them to produce an RPG on that level. I'm hoping Sony and MS can come to an agreement to allow gamepass (or a version of it) on PS systems in the long term. What will most likely allow that - is Sony maintaining a really strong ecosystem and player base. I think their only way to do this is probably to do 1 or 2 major acquisitions themselves - but it doesn't seem like they have the ability to respond.
