FFXIV on Xbox?

[Gralna]

What you're talking about is more than likely a Squeenix quote from E3 2016 in which they claim that Microsoft supposedly didn't want to do crossplatform. Weirdly enough, 3 years later you have several game that are Xbox/Switch/PC/Mobile crossplay compatible. All those games are also available on the PS4 but they can only be played between PC and PS4 users, locking out every other platforms at Sony's request. So I would take that original Squeenix quote with a grain of salt. Either way, that's 3 years old info, which somewhat classifies as outdated.

And what do all of those xbox cross platform games that require xbox live to play have? That's right, option for xbox exclusive servers so xbox players can play only with other xbox players if they want, which is one of the guarantees xbox promises for xbox live subscribers. Yoshi has said flat out that he will not support that since he doesn't want to split the community.

That's actually entirely up to the developers. You know what those games also have in common? The total absence of the PS4 in the crossplay lobbies, again, at Sony's request. I mean come on, you can log in xbox live on your switch ffs, let's stop acting like it's Microsoft that's being stingy when it comes to FFXIV.

The only two issues we know blocking 14 on Xbox is needing a separate sub to be able to accesses the game and that Microsoft had wanted Xbox live players to have to option to only play with Xbox live players. I have never seen any official source say Sony was involved in any way in the process as of yet.

OK, but how do you respond to Xbox requiring Xbox only servers, you still haven't answered this. You keep deflecting to "but Sony"
