    That's all true, and yet Bethesda are only releasing Starfield on Xbox and PC, which is pretty wild considering how many copies Skyrim sold.

        Yeah they're massively limiting their audience, but I think Microsoft is trying to go all in on exclusives this generation. I think they are just trying to murder the PS5 with brute force

          Gaming's gotten wild, seems like Sony and Microshit are switching places with Sony being the ones to make their exclusives (GoW, FFXII) multiplatform.

      Skyrim has sold a lot, but a halfway decent CoD game can do 20-30 million copies.

        Unfortunately there are no halfway decent CoD games :trans-undertale:
