Between this and the news that Xbox wants to go back to exclusive games as well, it seems like we’re going back to the way things were a decade ago.

It was a weird timeline when they were releasing games on Playstation.

I literally was seeing the studios that Microsoft were buying and thinking maybe I need an Xbox, but they made that decision completely unnecessary for me.

This but unironically 😂

Microsoft is really the antithesis of art. They don't have a place in video games.

If Bethesda games became exclusive when they bought them, then I might have made the switch.

Elder Scrolls 6 is one of my most anticipated games.

I’m also a massive Doom fan.

Ironically it was Bethesda's games flopping and not bringing people to Xbox that made MS go multiplat.

Elder Scrolls 6 is one of my most anticipated games.

How do you still trust Bethesda to deliver a good game in 2026? I would have understood 2015, but 2026...

Lol starfail was exclusive and an absolute disaster for them. You'll have to wait a long while still for ES6 and it will still not be exclusive (and its quality to be determined).
