Why don't you hire designers who can design games instead of designers who are good at implementing every manager's ideas and c-suite business goal? There is a threshold of tolerance beyond which your business strategy priorities become incompatible with a game anyone wants to play. Nobody plays games to make you money, so if you make games to make you money, nobody will want to play them.
It goes back to Steve Jobs talking about how engineers and programmers losing positions of power in companies and being replaced with worthless MBA people.
They cannot add any value to a product, ever. All they do is make things worse for short term gain. They are all taught the Jack Welch style of management which does nothing but destroy a company. It makes no sense why it’s tolerated.
I don't want either of those things
What do you want from Sony?
I dont care about Bloodborne or soulsikes in general, same with PvP.
Id like more co-op, more single player RPGs (that are not JRPGs).
Right now it feels like theres an oversaturation of soulslikes, cozy games, and overwatch/valorant competitors.
A Resistance game following some of the trends put forth by the Doom remakes.
A Killzone game that brings back some of the platforming mechanics from games like Titanfall 2.
Crash, Sackboy, Daxter and Clank indie-style metroidvanias and platformers.
A new Tearaway
A new Gravity Rush
A Grand Turismo 4 Remaster, or at least one that isn't shit.
Call Capcom up and talk about an exclusive Resident Evil that only works with your exclusive PS5 controller.
Call Remedy up and get a good original 3rd person shooter.
Win the game: Steam App on PlayStation, emulation layer capable of playing most indie games and lightweight offerings on Steam. TF2 on a PS5? Why not?
Like, be awesome again, Sony.
There's something oddly heart warming about seeing massive companies produce utter flops and lose millions.
We don't want your dross.
“But we worked so hard in this!”
Sorry, you aren’t a cute grade school kid, you are a goddamn adult. I will happily encourage a small child to keep drawing stick figure dinosaurs that are indistinguishable from a melted candle.
When an adult makes a game far worse than what we had during the PS3 era with worse writing than an NES game, fuck out of here. We don’t owe you shit, not buying your garbage.
So do y'all want originals or more remakes and sequels? Make up your minds
Obviously both
So you want everything slower?
Or do you expect the already overworked developers to work double as hard?
Obviously both
They know what we want. A game where any dlc is cosmetic only. A game where there are no micro transactions at all. Something that will run on a older PC without any performance problems. Something without an online requirement.
They know what we want but that is something they are unwilling to build.
Somewhat agree.
I don’t mind DLCs that add additional content to the game. Elden Ring comes to mind. Dragon Age Origins did this as well.
But like Starfield where the DLC was supposed to be part of the actual game and they cut it to sell it later? Nope. Not interested.
I want to agree with you because that's what I want too. Unfortunately, the financial success of f2p microtransaction infested pseudo-games tells the majority of players are just fine with that bullshit.
I know. A sucker is born every minute. Paying to win is how some of them are able to win.
Children and horny nerds are fine with it.
Was Concord trying to corner the horny nerds?
Mature/elderly people don't care either. Nor do casual mobile players. Basically everyone except the former gamer populace plays these games.
IIRC, the Concord devs were pretty good about MTX. They refused to add a battle pass even, for example. That obviously isn't enough though.
I fk why they don't like money.
Destimy has a "Plague doctor" skin on sale for the "hunter" class this episode. (or this week? no idea.)
Just saying...
They've got Lego Horizons coming this year and Lego Horizons Remastered next year. They'll be fine!
My fear is that they will fix the chalice dungeon exploit. I'm perfectly willing to admit I am not good enough to beat it without that.
What exploit?
There’s a bunch of hacked chalice dungeons you can join that essentially give you unlimited blood echoes.
I'd get their games for PC if they didn't have a compulsory PSN account login.
you can always pirate it if thats your issue
Yeah I really don't get why Fromsoft hitched that game so tightly to Sony. They were already on the map!
It was Sony that went to Fromsoft to have a game made, essentially. It was going to be a Sony game from the start, and if they hadn't done it, we wouldn't have Bloodborne at all.
Sony has some deep pockets I guess
We all know Dark Souls was a hit, but maybe From wasn't quite sure they would be able to capture lightning in bottle twice. So they played safe and signed another deal with Sony.
When you think about it, that worked well for them. DS2 wasn't as good as DS1, but Bloodborne was HUGE.
yeah makes sense. and so was DS3, which a lot of people compared to bloodborn
How did such a thing happen?
