I'm fine with early access for it; but would be cool if you could start playing this today after the show! :) 

Tom Warren said it's early access and it better be because they're running out of time for a full release without letting it get massacred by the packed Fall/Holiday season, a full release will quickly die when there's a dozen high profile titles right around the corner. Release it today in early access and then do the full release for Q1 and announce the final release date at their Developer Direct in January.

My favourite "fact" about Molag Bal is how apparently he shagged Vivec, created a bunch of children together, Vivec then went hunting to kill them and also bit Molag Bal's cock off and made a spear from it, if you take it in the literal sense...

Lmfao.

Ehh.

I'm still not sure how I feel about the design of this new Daedric Prince...Looks fine for anything other than a Daedric Prince but largely just looks like another attractive woman, except from Coachella and we already have a few of those regular human looking characters, could have gone for something a bit more out there.

At least make her entire body glass or something...

I'm afraid I have to disagree with the caricature of the position, it implies 'doing not so great with Xbox hardware is not critical to MS gaming division as it is already well diversified on the PC gaming market'. Xbox not selling as much as PS is not about the quality of their hardware but the fact that their hardware is not a requirement in their offering.

MS has been officially supporting PC with all their first parties for close to a decade, gamers who want to play MS first party can entirely opt out of the console market, and of course this as a negative impact on the sales of hardware but it's not an issue on it's own.

Sony is only now committing more to PC than just an afterthought and still not to the extent MS is doing so. Their new strategy has yet to show all its ramifications. Sony is doing so because fighting the console market has stagnated and halted Playstation's overall growth and ROI.

Yes and no, Sony recently increased support for PC but it wasn't the case up to this year. 

Is also creating is key, they are not present to the same extent as MS with their catalog of 1st IPs on PC very far from it, even more so when looking at the first half of this gen. As a result, you have a pool of potential Xbox consumers free from choosing between PC and Xbox Hardware while for PlayStation up to this year, there wasn't a choice.

But I'll explain better my thoughts with a prediction, if starting from next-gen Sony does support PC to a similar extent as Xbox, their sales of PlayStation hardware will go down, their consumer pool will go up, there's ROI will go up, as it happened with MS this gen.

If one actor finds another channel to reach consumers even if it would impact negatively its already established channel simply by way of offering more options, if the overall consumer reach, revenue, and ROI are expended then why should said actor refrain from using said new channel?

And on this question, Both MS and Sony have said it makes no sense, the difference is MS said so over a decade ago while Sony said so this year.

The cause-to-effect relation you try to establish is simply wrong. Xbox selling less hardware does not mean it's the least attractive, it can mean that consumers are using other channels to access MS offerings while those other channels are not offered to the same extent as the competition. 

If you try to use a metric for proposition attractiveness then why should Hardware number prevail over MAU?

this is highly debatable especially since we don't know how things will evolve from now regarding multiplatform strategy for MS and Sony with PC support.

But the things we can see are despite Sony almost doubling Xbox on hardware, it's Xbox that has the better ROI and MAU and it's not even close and that's not even accounting for ABK.

Preshow in begins in 7 minutes.

Coming to Game Pass.

Damn, Rebellion is releasing both Atomfall and a new Sniper Elite in the same year, and both on GP.
