by moving to the competitor

That's where I am with the Xbox. I'm pretty happy with it and don't want to switch over, but the massive digital catalogue I've accrued would make me really hesitant if they start shitting it up.

It helps that it's trending towards being a pre-built PC more and more, and I do think that will help in some regard. If the PC and Xbox versions are able to be the same, then dev costs go down, and you get a pretty solid idea of what a good lower-to-mid tier spec PC can do and optimize for that. It also would hopefully mean that more and more catalog becomes playable on PC, but who knows how far back that would go. Maybe Microsoft would make an emulator that you log-in to for access to 360-onward games? May be extreme wishful thinking there tho lol
