I don't see console exclusives ever not being a thing.Crossplay and cross save are only inevitable at this point. The era of games being tied to specific hardware is almost over.
Lol you know he didnt mean exclusives
Sony gained a lot of marketshare from the FGC this gen, with SFV and other JP fighting games. While tons of people will play on PC, if you're serious you lab on PS4 since that's what tournaments use (excepting exclusives, of course).
Even if cross-play happens, I do wonder how the tournament question will pan out. PC is harder to organize, since you have to deal with drivers. So which console will be the standard?
Considering that most Tekken pros (that stream) play on PC I wouldn't say that's true. The PC version is simply better, it doesn't matter if they're gonna play on a PS4 at a tournament.While tons of people will play on PC, if you're serious you lab on PS4 since that's what tournaments use (excepting exclusives, of course).
Perhaps he didn't, but I would consider that being tied to hardware.

You said "If you're serious", they're serious, they compete. It's just personal preference, it doesn't matter.Yes, and? Plenty of people *do* avoid playing on PC because of that difference in responsiveness. I've heard the excuse plenty of times in the SoCal scene, in person, coming from real people.
It's most certainly a problem that the FGC faces.
As long as NRS keep outsourcing certain versions of their FGs and having them patched up to a week after the internally developed versions, I don't see them doing crossplay, unless they just cut those other versions out.Capcom, nWay, and Microsoft have figured out solutions to this already, I think if anybody would be able to do it next it would be Netherrealm in either their next project or MK11's wrap-up update
