When Oblivon was an Xbox exclusive, Sony turned to Fromsoft to create an RPG for Playstation to compete with ES4.
The whole project tanked, and from the ashes we go Demon’s Souls. A whole new genre of gaming was born, and we’re all better off for it.
Hopefully something similar will happen this gen.
I have always been a huge fan of Bethesda games, well, fallout and elder scrolls at least. I would love to play ES6.
That said, there is no way I’m but another game system just for a handful of games.
Honestly, considering that Skyrim has been ported to every single device w a processor in it, I’d be very surprised if we don’t see a PS5 release of Starfield next xmass season. That is just way too much money to be left on the table.
When square was solidly in bed with Sony, MS made Fable.
Nowadays the only system thats worth it for exclusives is Nintendo, IMO. And that’s almost entirely for first-party games.
