I wouldn't release my game exclusively to Xbox either. Xbox fans don't really support games like SO or QB. Won't even try them. It's ridiculous to me

Oh how many times I've sworn EA will never get my money again for their broken piece of shit football game..then my losing streak stops and a new Fifa is announced --> shut up and take my money!!! Super deluxe pre-order edition here we go!
Flesh is weak and the soul is even weaker..
New engine sounds cool though. I hope they'll fix other issues as well..but they won't.

It's an awesome game. Loads of replay value, way more depth than Overwatch.

Well, not sure if SO or QB, if PS4 exclusive, would sell so much more (would obviously sell more because of the sold consoles alone). I mean, they would maybe but then also because Sony simply helps more to sell these games. MS is really not the best partner for marketing at least in Europe where they do like nothing except for some FIFA ads.
And it's not as if SO would be a 5m seller on PS4. Maybe 2.5m (around what Infamous did) but with a userbase 2x as big, that would be pretty much the same attach rate.
XBO users buy these games less, also because people who are interested in different genres are probably more on PS4 already since PS4 has a more diverse library but I don't really believe that the attach rate for SO or QB would be so much better on PS4 with the same marketing. I kinda doubt that QB would be already way above 1m on PS4 and SO wouldn't be over 2.5m in my opinion.

I'm not just talking about those two specifically. There are a lot which I believe deserved better treatment from MS and it's fans. Mass Effect(not totally sure saleswise on this one) Lost Odyssey, Alan Wake plus all those JRPGs from last gen which probably more or less didn't get sequels because of sales. They should have done way better than what they ended with. Sales in the beginning really matter the most i believe.
The MS fans usually buy the sports games, Gears, Forza and Halo games and hardly try out anything else. I'm mainly talking outside studios making exclusives for just the Xbox though. The chances of it succeeding outside of the popular genres are extremely low.
Maybe, like I think you were saying is that it's not just a MS thing but if our games which are exclusive to us don't sell well in the US they're finished. All of it has affected this system and everything they do in the future. There's equal blame to go around from each side but i saw MS trying last generation before they fell back into their heavy hitter rotation and this gen before they announced that most of the games are going to be Win10 and Xbox. I could be totally off base just my opinion.
PS I'm highly pissed we don't/have a sequel to Lost Odyssey 😂. I believe if the game sold well we would have had another masterpiece by now.
who do you think is Remedy's new partner? i think its either activision or EA.

IMO it will be good if Remedy partners with EA.

Cuphead looks amazing. I was skeptical when it was only a collection of bossfights but now im definitely getting it.
