Phil and Sarah have lied plenty, they lied to you when they told you it would be 4 games.
Since we speaking on "facts" of what we know let's really break it down.
-The Xbox version of the game was set to release right up until a few months before release
- pre orders and any revolving the Xbox version was removed from the site.
- game science tell folks
"We are currently optimizing the Xbox Series X|S version to meet our quality standards," Game Science said, "so it won't release simultaneously with the other platforms. We apologize for the delay and aim to minimize the wait for Xbox users. We will announce the release date as soon as it meets our quality standards.
- Xbox folks including Sarah and Phil state
it isn't a problem with the hardware, and that they know that they are getting the game, and when Phil is asked if they are still getting the game he said can't announce that.
Now let's use some context clues here, why wouldn't you be able to announce a game that's already confirmed for your system but is just delayed to be worked on

This wasn't a issue for BG3 at all. They could speak freely about the game and the work on it.
Only a delusional stan would think that a company would buy exclusivity but then try to hide it when the same company has no problem with having exclusives and promoting it.

this is Sony's default go to.

y'all really believe the silly narratives that games just been skipping Xbox with zero incentive from Sony.
It's been addressed in court, it's been exposed in leaks, Phil has mentioned "slimy" exclusivity deals. It's been a part of Sonys DNA since the PS1.
You are going against the actual game director's word and also thinking that Sony decided to hide this exclusive over Xbox that gave no definitive statement on why it was late.
There are so many potential reasons LEGALLY why Sony couldn't just say after they fact there is an exclusives. Especially if game science decided to bite after locking down contractual obligations on the Xbox side.
A easy way around that is to have "optimization problems" which also legitimately could have been true
Just like someone who can't afford to buy something the day before payday all of a sudden has it the next day, and when asked "I thought you couldn't afford that" technically can't but still has it.
Did that person lie or
We got one actual statement in all of this and it was the game director himself, I thought Xbox fans liked actual sources and not random journalists? Or are we changing our mind for this one?
Let these companies run game on you brehs
