Considering Microsoft own Bethesda and they pulled the whole 'xbox and pc exclusive' bullshit. It seems like Microsoft are trying to create a monopoly of gaming companies so they can compete with and try pull people away from Sony. They hate that Sony continues to beat them in console sales.
So my concern is they're going to stop selling things on Sony, such as overwatch, diablo etc. They only promised call of duty for 10 years. I didn't read any other games with this promise in the merger deal. I honestly think it should have been blocked cause they are trying to monopolise the gaming industry and basically force a switch to their game pass or console.
Yes blizz was a shit show. But Microsoft are children who don't like that people have friends other than themselves.
I was meaning more the fact that Bethesda released on playstation until Microsoft bought them. If Bethesda only ever released on Xbox I wouldn't have an issue. But my issue is Microsoft are already pulling their bullshit with another company they acquired.

Sony has been playing this game for a longer time, as @CoderKat said, and nobody cared
Do you know Psygnosis of WipEout fame? They developed multiplatform titles for Staturn, PC and N64, when Sony aquired them that stopped (Well, they launched WipEout on the N64 and that angered Sony but they stopped after that)
Sucker Punch (Ghost of Tsushima) first game was for the N64
Guerrilla Games (Horizon Forbidden West) started developing on the Game Boy Color, and also made games for the GBA and Xbox
And a very long list of developers now owned by Sony, most of them developed for a bunch of different platforms before Sony's acquisition
But the thing is most people think those studios were created by Sony rather than purchased
The frustrating thing is they’re both being shitty for consumers. It’s terrible that they’re acquiring these previously cross platform publishers and making them exclusives, but at the same time, this is what Sony has been doing for a while (at best, they very recently have started doing PC releases but with a multi year delay, which I don’t really count as truly cross platform).
I’m not into consoles so as long as there’s PC support, I’m good. I wouldn’t call something exclusive if it’s on PC… As long as there isn’t a crippling anti-cheat, that means it can be played on Linux!
But there's people who don't play on pc. That's a pretty crappy thing to say. 'i don't care about it unless it affects me.'
I console game, cause I grew up on consoles, I can't do the whole sitting in a pc chair thing. There's more than just people who play pc. And if it's on pc only, that is pc exclusive.
Picking up a console means locking yourself down to (and supporting) a platform designed around creating exclusives. PC games aren’t locked down and can work on a much wider range of hardware and even operating systems.
I use my PC almost exclusively from the couch with my OLED TV. Sometimes from bed with a tablet on a flexible arm via Sunshine/Moonlight.
The Anti-Lag software from AMD seems to get flagged as some sort of cheating from the Anti Cheat software by Valve, as it tempers the Counter Strike code. In other words, its not compatible. AMD should have tested and worked together with Valve, before shipping the update. It's not to blame Valve, because the Anti Cheat software works as intended, but AMD, because they did not work with Valve before launching their software.
Anti-lag has been in the amd drivers for a long time. This seems more to be caused by Valve rushing CS2 out the door so the drivers couldn't be thoroughly tested.
Erroneous bans, they intend to reverse them once AMD implements a fix:
AMD's latest driver has made their "Anti-Lag/+" feature available for CS2, which is implemented by detouring engine dll functions.
If you are an AMD customer and play CS2, DO NOT ENABLE ANTI-LAG/+; any tampering with CS code will result in a VAC ban.
Once AMD ships an update we can do the work of identifying affected users and reversing their ban. @AMD
It's sort of sad that Mac players won't be able to experience CS2, I have a friend who refuses to get a PC and only have a Mac and I'd love to try them out on CS2.
This could either be really good or horrifically awful. However unlike The Witcher show, I feel like it has better chances. Source material doesn't matter too much in that V's story can be pretty dynamic with how its told and The Witcher has a very linear story line and strongly solidified characters.
Adapting existing stories and changing them has to be done really well for people to appreciate it and The Witcher just didn't have this going for it. 2077 on the other hand has so many places it could go, characters that we've yet to meet. I mean really they have all the options as long as the dialogue and delivery is done well.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but maybe they shouldn't release even more content. That game is jam packed already!
You think you're done and then BAM! you're running a fish farm and an actual farm, then BAM! you're running errands for a mermaid kingdom, BAM! you're doing a whole side quest under the ice sheet, BAM! you're opening branches of the sushi restaurant... etc, etc, etc...
I love to see a game with tons of a content but I fear they may have overdone it a bit.
