'Tis odd why PC/Mac can play together on the megaserver, but not so for PS4/Xbox. Why is that?

Microsoft doesn't allow it... that's pretty much the long and short of it.

Because they aren't consoles. They are open platforms. MS and Apple have nothing to do with ESO on their computers.

I've seen it with other games; Sony and Microsoft hate having console cross-play, and a company has to go well, well out of their way and put a lot of time + money into making it work. Most just give up, which I'm glad they've done otherwise they wouldn't have time for more content.

"If you want FFXIV to be on XB 360 and XB1 then we will not allow cross platform play, all the pc, ps and xb servers must be separated"
So The Japanese dev who had HONOR said no thanks then we want FFXIV to be a social game where friends can play together no matter the platform.
So i guess this is why i can't play on PS4 with my friend on PC, because Microsoft spat the dummy out and Bethesda wanted the XB players at the sacrafice of cross platform play.

The simple fact is we DO know that MS doesn't support cross platform play (but is going to start with Windows 10). What we do NOT know is specifically how Sony or Microsoft feel about cross platform with the other console platform. We can make conjecture, but all of the discussions revolve around console to PC cross-platform play. Sony may be just as opposed to allowing PS4 games to play with Xbox One games... it doesn't appear that way with the information we have but that question hasn't been directly addressed by the news media (shame on them... oh well, they're little more than advertising agents anyway)
What we DO know:
- PS4 has multiple PC to PS4 cross platform games.
- At one point ESO was NOT going to require PS+.
- Never was it announced that ESO wouldn't require Live.
- When ESO went Buy to Play, prior to console release, it was decided that ESO:TU WOULD require PS+.
Extrapolate whatever you want from this.
