I played fortnite for a little on my ps4 with some of my friends.
Now that fortnite released on switch I was going to download and play it on that.

Once I learned that I'd have to make a new epic account and couldn't play with my friends, I just didn't bother.

Sony always wins.

Meh, the other consoles would be doing the same thing if they were leading in console sales like Sony is this gen.

Nintendo would probably do this. I think Microsoft did the same thing last generation.

They aren't gonna stay in the lead if they aren't careful. This kind of petty thing is bad PR, switch is on the rise and Microsoft is taking Japanese games more seriously and bought/opened five studios to develop exclusives.

It was exactly the opposite last gen. Microsoft wouldn't allow anything to connect to XBL, and AFAIK the only exceptions were FF11 and Shadowrun.

Has any non-mmo ever allowed players to play each other across consoles?

I agree its dumb but I think I could count the games that do this on one hand. >~>

I think the only reason it works with Xbox now is because Xbox and Windows are now one online platform.

Now keep in mind i know nothing about network security or flow, but PSN was trash last gen, lost private customer data what, twice?? To the point where they shut down the network and had to give out free games lol. Not sure Id want to connect to that network either and put my consumer at risk. Now that they have their shit together its prob fine. I dunno anything about that stuff or if it would have made XBL more vulnerable

I believe Rocket League has cross play between Switch and Xbox. Or at least, it was planned.

Xbox One and Windows 10 games use the same servers. Nintendo doesn't even have their network truly going yet, so we don't know how long this cross compatibility with Xbox is going to last.
