Microsoft opened its doors.

I'm claiming that if anyone thinks that the Xbox couldn't run this game based off the slight hardware differences really has no idea what they're talking about. They wouldn't need to upscale it based off the current PS4 performance, which is on par with the PC. The issue with frame rate isn't even a issue based entirely on the system, it also takes the development team time to make sure the game is actually running soundly. We've seen more and more companies push games out way to soon which has lead to more and more performance issues, you don't need to look far here other than the Mac version of FF14. If SE actually took the time to release the proper info and make sure everything is in order then the Mac version wouldn't have flopped, all SE would have to do is intensively work on the Xbox version, if there is one, and the game would be perfectly fine.

As for requiring a subscription, I'm almost positive that every PS4 game requires PS Plus EXCEPT FF14. So the whole subscription based issue isn't really a issue unless Xbox makes it a issue. As for patching the game with my experiences the only people Microsoft can dictate patches and hotfixes is the Microsoft game studios and 343.
