You're way too focused on Sony, probably because you're some Xbox fanboy.

Fewer independent major publishers is a bad thing, it'll mean fewer multiplatform games in the future. Sure Microsoft said some bullshit about keeping doing multiplatform but they said the same bullshit when buying Bethesda and we can already see what's happening there.

Note, I'm primarily a PC gamer, I'm not going to be locked out from games Microsoft makes so don't go thinking I'm against this because I'm going to be missing out.

I have been a playstation user since the ps1 days and I still go playstation because of their exclusives, I didn't buy an Xbox before they bought Bethesda (unlike ABK, I care about those games). I'm not missing out either ;)

That being said: I have been on gamefaqs for about 20 years and I remember how irritated us playstation users were when Xbox started with this timed exclusives shit on dlc. Since the end of the PS3 days and until now Sony has been doing a lot worse and the response was always that playstation is just better. Which was true. And they kept doing this anti-consumer (pro playstation) stuff, but now that Microsoft goes big, it's just unfair, right?

To me it just feels like this shakes up the coasting of playstation a little and it will be good for the industry that not every exclusive is on playstation and Nintendo. Xbots have cried for most of the time I've been on Gamefaqs. It's not bad that Ponys shed some tears. It's a healthy sign.
