But why cant we see PC games on Xbox?
Why not Age of Empires, Flight Simulator or Dota2 on Xbox One?
First off, Age Of Empires and Flight Simulator are MS titles, you'll likely see it on XB down the road, but DoTa2? Like I said "Not really bud, MS needs this more then Nintendo" as in MS needs this more then Valve.... soooooo MS is the one that needs this, not Sony, not Nintendo, not Valve. So when you have Nintendo breaking records, Sony breaking records and Valve is a beast all on its own, they have no ode to devalue their brand with some of their IP, MS on the other hand is coming across selling the least units for the 3rd generation in a row. Clearly what they are doing isn't working and putting games on all platforms makes more sense for MS, then Sony, Nintendo, Valve etc.
Sooooo stop arguing for everyone else to be as bad as MS to do such moves, that is a MS situation, Valve has no ode to put Dota2 anywhere else right now, they could never do that and still make mega millions, thats an option for them, thats mandatory for MS...
Nintendo will move millions with Pokemon
Sony will move millions with The Last Of Us 2
Valve will still make millions with the IP they have and Steam
Neither has much reason to need to put games on all devices as some hail mary move, that is what MS needs atm.
Because when I'm talking about give something and take something.
I mean....thats nice and all but beggars can't be choosers. MS is in this situation because of how poorly they've done this entire generation, they have literally changed their messaging to state they are seeking to put their content on all devices. That is MS move, not Sony's, Nintendo's or Valves.... Take that up with MS, but stop assuming that MS being this desperate suddenly means Sony, Nintendo and Valve must all put their games on XB or something, MS is the one that needs to spread their IP even on devices they don't own to get by, that isn't an issue for Sony, Nintendo or Valve, those are simply nice options, not mandatory.
Im satisfied with one console so I want to have one console for most games.
For someone that wants those other publishers games, you backed the wrong platform. I'd argue you are better off actually getting a PC or another system as look at it like this, MS is the one that is putting their titles on lots of devices, not Sony, Valve or Nintendo.......as in, it makes more sense to get a different platform if you seek to only have 1, why would you want the one platform that basically is putting titles on all other platforms when it would make more sense to just get one of those other platforms if you are getting MS titles AND the ones you want that won't come to XB?
Thats like saying you'd buy a EA console and EA is putting games on all other devices, BUT those other publishers are not putting games on EA's console, then you beg and say stuff like "Isn't that a reasonable way of thinking?" or "But why cant we see Ubisoft games on EA Box?" or "Surely the same thinking should be applied here, right?" So...."should" is irrelevant.
Its not happening, thats the point. Let this generation teach you that what you think "should" happen based on some strange moral concept is just irrelevant to business. MS is going multiplatform because of their issues as of late, getting their platform will only net you titles you will already be able to buy else where anyway.... you legit only gain the ablity to play a multiplatform game, you lose the ability to play God Of War, Pokemon, Smash Bros, Horizon Zero Dawn, Dota2 etc.
Maybe you are better off with a PC, its why I have zero interest in getting a XB, I already own a PC, why would I then buy a platform to receive the same titles by MS and even less content overall? You can have all of MS titles AND Dota2 bud.
