Was released before the acquisition.
Still gonna need a bnet account I think?
Of course. Bnet is used to communicate with other, like steam has their own.
Everyone will have to use a Bnet account to talk across all their games. I don't see that change unless they ditch the entire Bnet launcher and eco system, which I don't think ever will happen.
Many wow players don't even care about other games. That will affect them heavily.
Kinda makes you wonder what the point of Time Exclusive is, if gamers are willing to wait if they have to.
My Gf is a huge Harry Potter fan and looked forward to hogwarts legacy.
Until she saw Sony money hatted the special mission or whatever for a year.
My Gf won't mind waiting a year. By that time, the game will probably also be cheaper at least on a sale.
I'm sorry, but someone who buys an entire system for 499 because they can't wait a year for a timed game either has too many money, or have other issues.
I really don't see COD becoming exclusive anytime soon. It just doesn't make sense. The install base is just too small on Xbox right now. Cut off the PS crowd and it could turn into a dead game like Halo real quick.
In 10 years... who knows.
1. People said making Bethesda games exclusives didn't make sense as there's no one playing xbox.
They went exclusive.
2. Xbox and pc has the same username. So it's technically bigger than playstation thanks to pc.
Besides. Nintendo is also in the mix. I do doubt they get the exactly same version through.
Halo is not dead. It's far from it's prime time, but you don't have to wait many seconds to join a game.
It would still be in the same state if it was on playstation. It's thanks to piss poor management.
Great game getting killed because lack of content.
Also, it's fun reading the narrative from "no one should buy an Xbox it has no games", to "xbox shouldn't make popular games exclusive, they will die as no one will buy an xbox,not even if it had great games".
