ESO unification day on the horizon?
With the recent announcement that Microsoft is going to unify the Xbox and PC ecosystem, and allow modular hardware on their console, what does this mean for the future of ESO?
My understand was that Sony was fine with cross platforming with the PC, but that Microsoft didn't want any of their games to cross platform with Sony. With the new Unified Windows Applications (UWA) it appears Microsoft may no longer have a choice. ZOS could simply make the PS4 version cross platform with the PC, and then the Xbox players could play the PC version to cross platform with everyone.
Do you guys think ZOS would make the leap, put in the effort to finally unify all the platforms into one big Elder Scrolls world, where us PC snobs can play with our more casual console friends? Where friends with different consoles can play ESO together?
One can hope.

✭✭I really dont think it will happen... Ive made this hopful speculation myself, but i dont find it likely with the history the consoles have had. No matter the structure in place.

✭They should do this. Segregating the player base based on what platform we play is racist.Edited by WalkingLegacy on March 2, 2016 4:01PM3 -

✭✭✭✭✭I'd love it if they did because my husband could get it for PS4 and we could play together (we only have 1 PC).
But I wouldn't be surprised if it never happens, even if it is technically possible.
Also would this mean we'd have to listen to in-game voice chat on the PC?PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

✭If it could be implemented seamlessly, I'd really like this. I have friends that play on Consoles (simply not PC gamers) and I'd LOVE to be able to play with them.
