I’m a Sony only guy at the moment and Starfield is the first game since before the PS4 generation that has the potential to make me hurt a bit.

I do have a PC with a 1070 GPU. Any chance it’ll run this game somewhat acceptablely?

Well.. ..Grub is never wrong so...


Anyway, I am ready. I just hope this generation turns it around soon (with actual game releases) so I can enjoy my new toys.
 
And that's why this game will be highly divisive.

Xbox fans will praise it to heaven and PS fans will trash it to hell.

bethesda has a lot to prove though, as a studio they’ve really gone nowhere for like 15+ years

i wish them the best, but studios don’t usually sell out with such strong IP unless they feel like they’re in trouble

If it’s on xbox and pc at the same time, is that an exclusive? Doesn’t exclusive mean one party? It should be console exclusive on xbox and also available on pc.
Microsoft windows is a Microsoft platform..they are done with "just on console" thing following Sony in a war that would seem then always as losers . Now is the opposite with them beating hard Sony with the user reach and user base

I have absolutely no idea what you’re saying. What I’m saying is, I believe something can’t be exclusive to 2 things. So, console exclusive and also available on pc. You can’t say microsoft exclusive because people would expect to be able to play it on a tablet or something

It’s a Microsoft exclusive get over it.

Last of us was on the PS3, PS4 and possible the PS5, is that not an exclusive?

I'll wait for the reveal. I don't think PS would care too much to be honest.
Yeah, imagine Sony not caring about the next big meal ticket from the developers of elder scrolls and fallout.

They could port Skyrim or doom to mobile and still make a million sales so I don’t think they need to prove much tbh. Kinda like Pokémon, they can sell just on the brand name alone.

There was no way this wasn't always going to be the case. No one, especially not MS, spends $7.5 billion to maintain the status quo. They needed to make an impactful acquisition to drastically improve their exclusive library to get as many people on gamepass as possible and sell more consoles. Grabbing Bethesda achieves all of that. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, DOOM, and Starfield are absolutely monster franchises to add to Gears, Halo, Forza, Fable, Minecraft, etc.. Sony has great exclusives, but the playing field has been leveled significantly. The fact that you can spend $15 a month and play all of it is going to sell a lot of consoles IMO.

Windows is Microsoft is part of the Xbox branding/ecosystem, so yes.
It’s still wrong. It should be microsoft exclusive but then have a disclaimer that minimum system specification applies
It’s a Microsoft exclusive get over it.
Over what? How is something exclusive when it’s available on 2 platforms at the same time. You can play it on anything that runs windows? No. It’s xbox console exclusive and also available on pc.
Is Xbox platform exclusive.....and it mean PC+consoles+Xcloud that can run gamepass
But, that’s why I said the title was wrong. It’s not exclusive on xbox and pc. Like deathloop. It will be on PS5 and PC. So it’s a console exclusive PS and also on pc.
