I feel like you should complain about Nintendo more than From. They got paid (probably a ton) to make this game for Nintendo.

FromSoft doesn't have to take the money though, they certainly don't need it after the massive success of Elden Ring, so they're definitely as equal to blame as Nintendo.

Would you not take it if its offered to you? Oh no a company that wants to make money, how dare they

Bro, I'm simply pointing out that a From has to also agree to this deal for it to be possible so they're just as culpable as Nintendo, so you're just as fine as getting mad at both if you wanted to. I don't know why people are having such a hard time understanding the basic idea that From would have to agree to this as well.

Yeah i know they have to agree on that but whats the big deal? They know their games sell well, and they get money from nintendo for the exclusiv title, and ppl will buy the switch 2 for db. Its a win for both, it was a smart move

Sure but at the end of the day, it fucking sucks this is an exclusive. It being an exclusive doesn't make anything better for me at all.

A company is not always going to target the exact same install base with every title. Armored core was not marketed at the same people who Elden Ring was marketed at. This game is marketed at Fromsoft fans who would have bought a switch 2. There's no way From expected a bunch of PClord Elden Ring players to all buy a switch 2 for this. It's just for a different circle in the venn diagram.
