I really like your channel! I think your take on things are quite nuanced and well reasoned. I hope you continue pushing forward and that you don’t quit.
Exclusives have always been for the benefit of companies, not consumers. The fact that there are many consumers who have bought into this and even think of it as good just speaks to the effectiveness of marketing and tribalism. It's a concept that can't go away fast enough.
Microsoft owns Minecraft & Fallout. Both are on multiple platforms making money for them continuously. I don't see how them being "exclusive" to Xbox would be a financially smart move. Sony needs to increase sales. They will need a lot more exclusives every year and that's unlikely. Selling their exclusives on other platforms is their only real choice for the future.

I switched to PC for the games. I would have missed a lot of good console games if they weren't ported.
Definitely feels like there are less and less reasons to stay on consoles - but you can't deny the convenience of them.

I'm glad Playstation games came to PC. Otherwise I wouldn't have played a Sony Game in 20 years.
