And "please ignore the content of the documents and instead, hey look Starfield is great right!?"
And funnily enough Starfield being Xbox/PC exclusive is an example why their hoarding is bad for gaming, and why the Activision deal shouldn't pass.
Who is doing that? It's just blatantly obvious that it would've been released on PlayStation without Microsoft meddling and their games sell a shitload, I mean Skyrim has been chugging along over a decade now. So I'm not really sure how Starfield is irrelevant to Ms buying shit conversation.
Away from what? Everyone knows what it means -- or maybe I don't, please enlighten me in that case.
It's more like a default platform seeing as even former PlayStation exclusives are slowly getting a PC release as well. And I did call Starfield Xbox/PC exclusive, not just Xbox.
It's probably not the word to describe what's getting released where and stems from marketing but it's commonly used in gaming so most understand its meaning.
PC is another of MS's platforms with Windows. No shit they're ok with their games being released on it when consumers are paying over a $100 for a Windows license every few years.
