kkarhan, 
Yeah, that's a shit move:
On top of taking away the optical drive, the #XboxSeriesS is also downgraded in #Specifications compared to the #XboxSeriesX...
So basically there are two different platforms...
If I were a #AAA #GameDev I'd also either skip the #Microsoft #XboxSeries and ask #Sony for a #PS5 exclusivity bonus or don't bother to optimize for SeriesX when #SeriesS games will run just fine on the bigger #Xbox...
