Why do you want xbox+ps4+pc+mobile crossplay?

I still don't understand why people think this is important or even good. Playing with friends on the other system would be great, but that's seemingly not a feature that this crossplay would allow.

The only advantage is increasing the pool of active players. Xbox games might sell less than PS4 games but it's not that large of a difference. Plus most people focus on wanting crossplay on big games that already have huge player numbers. Smaller indie games are the ones that'd truely benefit from this.

The disadvantage is that different systems have slightly different games. Xbox and ps4 are pretty close but include mobile or pc and it stops being fair to all players. Doesn't matter for all genres but does for a lot of them.


So am I wrong about something and you still really want this feature? Or are most people demanding it wrong in some form?
