Please be spefific: Who are those people, what makes you say "most"?

And you don't want to argue that the duration deal was known before, do you? Or do you want me a lmgtfy?

Most of the X1 fans, a quick look at all the threads on this subject shows that

 

And your are out of the subject here, the title is clear even if your dont like it, it talus about the fact its could come on PS4 after this Timed deal, something not Said before by CD

It has been known for months now that the deal has a duration. I haven't seen a single Xbox One owner say the game won't go to anywhere else, so unless you can back that up with actual proof then that's just not true.

It seems like your only reasoning for making this thread is that you didn't like that apparently some Xbox One owners thought the game would be permanently exclusive, even though I have not seen anyone say that nor have you provided any proof of anyone saying that, so it isn't true. So out of spite you wanted to make this thread even though it's something that has been known for months now?

Oh, that's daring generalizing... But I guess you didn't actually check the threads and just assumed, I think. Especially after Phil himself said the deal has a duration.

So you say that after Phil Spencer said deal has a duration nobody believed it was coming to other platforms but now as CD said they won't say anything about other platforms people's minds changed?

I know you won't dig out the threads where "most of the x1 fans" said anything that could prove your point but it would be way better in any discussions to prove point where

- it is needed

- it can help your reasoning

No, but a fair few assumed that 'duration' implied just the PC. It wasn't as widespread an opinion as Aerys is implying, but people did have it.

I won't link to the comment itself here since i'm not sure if we're aloud, but we had stuff like "This will be XBOX and pc only, people just wont accept it. Phil Spencer just needs to man up and say it like that sony exec did." several weeks/months after Phil has said the deal had a duration.

Aery's really needs to update the OP...the dev didn't say anything about the PS4.

At least I didn't read it and I don't see any reasoning behind this besides hopes and wishes, to be honest.

I didn't say he did? :p I was just saying to walsufnir that it being PC/Xbox only was indeed an opinion some people hold (regardless to if it ends up being true). Personally I think it's too soon to state absolutes either way.

My mistake, I misinterpreted your intent.

I agree wholeheartedly. Its likely it will go somewhere, but we dont know if that means PC, Playstation platforms, or both.

Huh? It is kown since many months that the deal has a "duration". But I guess it is important to reiterate it as often as possible.

Bit like you quoting a certain game length in every thread last week :) 

reiteration is important.

I was doint it because people refused to take the youtube-walkthrough serious.

This again is a case of people not willing to listen to what is evident and provable and instead believe in gut feelings. And don't exaggerate, it wasn't every thread

Possible exaggeration, although it did feel like every thread was an order thread

I think it's safe to say there were too many but moderators also closed threads because we had too many of them.
