Join me on a trip down memory lane after I posted that I think Starfield, Elder Scrolls 6 etc will be PC Xbox Exclusive:

This, I really don't understand how people don't see this it's really simple.
I didn't understand.

This was never going to happen.

Bingo.

To be fair, and because most of the forum was posting that they reckon it'll be multi-plat I recanted a little:
