Makes sense, I suppose. Once it's become clear that it's not shifting hardware, might as well make extra bucks by porting it to at least sell more software.

If that is true I think that would be basically it for Xbox hardware. That's them conceding their own console market will never be enough to facilitate their own games.

The fundamental problem is that the game ended up being extremely fucking mid.

Me too. Im hoping that M$ didnt throw them a mountain of munny to keep it on gamepass for a year or something like that.

Then again, the game may be out of early access at that point. I dont mind if the player base is greatly reduced if the game is more polished. Its not like i would hop into PUGs with randos anyway.

This isn't just about Starfield.

Hi-Fi Rush was the first rumored port. Then Sea of Thieves. Now Starfield and also Indiana Jones.

The days of Xbox exclusive console games may be done.

Their envisioned future is having everyone signed up for gamepass regardless of what platform they do it on.

Seems about right, by all accounts it's not the killer app they hoped.

And if it's not shifting consoles, they might as well make what money from it they can.

This is assuming that Game Pass will be on PS5 and Switch.

It's also possible they're shifting away from Game Pass and just end up becoming the biggest third party publisher on consoles.

I could see a version of GamePass on PS5 with just MS first party games.

The thing is Sony is pretty strict with game subscriptions. They blocked EA Access for years. Neither it or Ubisoft+ has day one games.

Call of Duty is a huge revenue driver for them.

Why would Sony agree? They don't really get anything out of it. Kinda seems like Xbox don't have much of an upper hand for anything here.

Another potential hint is that Nadella stopped putting Game Pass as a bonus milestone last year and shifted to just gaming revenue.

Sony leadership is a lot different now than just a couple years ago. They notice the changing times hence why they are bringing games to PC and expanding mobile.

So why isn't Ubisoft+ Premium on Playstation.

Even from Microsoft's perspective they would have to be looking at if it's worth bothering with if they don't care about selling consoles and the their ecosystem anymore. They haven't made any promises to Playstation gamers.

Bethesda is delusional if they think it will have the same legs as Skyrim... Starfield is boring as fuck

I guess I'm not surprised that a lot of gamers hate fun.

Starfield is a pretty good time. Nothing revolutionary like I think they were pitching as, but still a pretty great time sink. And definitely more fun and polished than Skyrim. Cool that they might bring it to PS5.

Friends,

Well there are more playstations they Xboxes. so I guess if you want sales, then its a strategy.

I bought an xbox X for Starfield, played Starfield like 500+ hours.

If anyone is drooling over it, I would say, DONT bother, Its just MEH.

It's not a space game though. 90% of the time you are running around on generic empty planets, fighting the same three gangs, in the same 5 random bases.

bruh, it's boring and the writing sucks.

I will say they did a good job with the shooting mechanics but that doesn't account for the boring ass space "exploration", bland outpost building and repetitive missions

Yeah Starfield has those too. I liked the clone planet and the one that was basically Alien. The difference is in Starfield you can't really just explore and find them. You either get them from a town or a spaceship hailing you.

The problem is the exploration in Starfield is broken and it kills a lot of the rest of the game. Like in TES and Fallout a big appeal to the questing is in the exploration and the stories and locations you uncover along the way. Starfield does not have that. Either quests are completely self-contained in small locales (like the cities), or they require you to travel to other locations with zero incentive for sidetracking.

99% of content on planets is copy-paste "farm" or "science outpost", usually without any unique loot. So unless you like trekking for dozens of hours for repetitive side quests the best way to resolve things is just non-stop fast travel.

They have No Man's Sky-style exploration mechanics (i.e., scanning plants and animals and minerals), but there is not a big variety in any of the things either and it's a bore to do.

Sure Bethesda and the smaller MS studios need to sell more gain a profit. Xbox user base doesn't seem to be enough. Real question is if Halo ever makes that jump. I believe the console split in market share is close to 2/3 PS5 to 1/3 to xbox. 43 million vs 23 million are the numbers listed in Sept.
