I'm planning to finish the last couple of main mission levels in Floppy Knights on game pass, maybe chip away at Yakuza Like a Dragon (is that now just Like a Dragon?), and play a little Inscryption on PS
I am concerned about the acquisition in terms of Sony long term health. This isn't competition, it's not like MS came up with games to rival God of War or last of us. They are buying a key product for the system. It's more like they are rival pizza places and MS just bought the pepperoni supplier. Yeah, you can sell pizzas without pepperoni, but it's always been a big seller for them, and the place down the street already covers a bunch of niche flavors. I hope it all turns out ok. In the short term, I have gamepass and I like crash Bandicoot and Diablo, so win for me. But I don't want to see any of the big 3 fail, I think the competition is good. If Sony fails and MS has no competition (I don't think of N as direct competition, but I suppose they really are), then prices could go up and quality down. So I don't hate Sony for being worried, or MS for wanting the deal. But I worry.
Also, re exclusives, it is a weird time. You have Sony with some timed exclusives but also starting to put first party stuff on PC, and MLB went to game pass 2 years in a row on day 1. Right? Exclusive landscape is hard for me to understand right now.
