The removing of bought movies from your account is what makes sure Ill stop buying from sony. On PC i can still download every game I ever bought except some mmos that died. The fact they are removing such a large quanitiof content you paid for screams greed, incompetence and that they really dont care. Well sony if you dont care then I dont care. You have created some.nice memories that I will cherish but this is where I'm out. Not a bang but a pathetic whimper. Maybe I sound entitled maybe I am. But this is just soooo stupid a decision I can't find the goodwill to trust them.
I have no words anymore. Sony is killing itself and damaging the very industry it exploits for profit. This should be illegal licences or not, what has been bought has been bought they already have the money. I hope they get sied out the behind for this. I'm really considering not buying anything on ps anymore. So ots ok to pirate stuff from.sony because I dont own it anyway so I can't steal it by definition. Congrats sony. Are their recent decisions born from stupidity, AI prompts or just pure ego?
The activision blizzard acquisition is paying off I see. Blade deserves a good game so ofc its on the chopping block along with arkane. Sony and Microsoft have closed way too many studios. Then they wonder why the numbers are plummeting
Between Genshin, Wuwa, NTE, ZZZ, Honkai and the upcoming Ananta, it's gonna be though. It all depends on the gacha system and the available characters and storyline on launch. Take NTE for example, that second chapter with Taygedo was sooooo bad they gave you the option to mute the guy because he was so annoying. Plus the story was just bad. Thankfully the chapters afterwards picked up the pace but still. Then there's certainly a gacha fatigue setting in for many. There's only so many gachas you can support considering how expensive the pulls can get. Plus theres many non Action RPG gachas aswell. It'll be interesting to see how marvel'll fare. Before the Rivals launch I was sure it was gonna fail, but that seems to not be the case. As always time will tell.
I wish rockstar stopped faffing around and told us the price. This whole secrecy hype thing isn't doing it for me. We know when pre orders go live but no price? Ya lost me at this point.
I mean if you release ports of years old games everyone already played, thrn ofc you wont make the same amount of money as a fresh launch.....plus they skipped ports like bloodborne which would be bestsellers. Imagine demons souls remake on pc. Plus some of the ports that did launch had issues on day 1 and that showed that they didn't care imo.
We live in the stupidest timeline. How idiotic. For an OFFLINE, LOCAL, mode to ask for an subscription service meant for ONLINE and then BOTH players need it? Well done. When nobody buys it they'll cry about how the port hasn't sold the needed gazillion copies day one. This is just plain ridiculous.
While I appreciate the first senua as an experimental experience, the sequel didn't do it for me at all. Ninja Theory can do so much more. I wonder if a reveal of a different game would've been better as a selling point. In aycase this whole affair sucks and so does the state of the entire industry. Sony and microsoft have both bouand gutted amazing studios. I blame the insane cost of game development. If you need to sell 10 million copies on Day 1 to call a game a success, then somethings clearly wrong and way out of touch. The budgets for games has swollen to a grotesque amount and it's clearly hurting the industry.
As much as it sucks but a "crash" is practically unavoidable imo. The budgets for AAA games has ballooned to an unsustainable point, the budgets are out of hand. Add in subscription services and it gets even worse.
I'm cautiosly optimistic about this one. I love vampires and we need a good vampire game after masquerade failed (though that it would fail was obvious considering it's development hell).
If they come out as a single collection I'll bite. But before then, I highly doubt it. FF7 Remake integrade didn't grab me as much as I had hoped. Didn't even try the sequel. FF7 crisis core reunion (god those names), also didn't really hold me and I played the original almost through. Though stopped at the end cuz it was too difficult for child me. But a collection which buundles these 4 games might sway me to retry.
They announced it way too early. I'm not interested in hearing their marketing talk when it's still years out and still being actively worked on and changed.
@Flaming_Kaiser Exactly, it really turned me off the guys work. Even if it were true its just such an egotistical thing to say. In the case of DMC it's blatantly false considering that DMC 5 came out before it and brought not only one of the best DMC experience but also (arguably) brought back capcom to its current height.
Haven't played the first one yet. Since this trailer uses AI I'll wait until I see real gameplay. I suppose this'll be the future for many studios. Heavy use of AI. I just hope its not noticeable in the final product, that's all Im asking for at this point because it's clear that AI is here to stay
Yet word of mouth for the series is absolutely terrible. Interesting. I also saw an interview with mr. Shankar where he basically said hes the savior of the series. Lets just say I'm not scrambling to watch it.
The fact that the only mode that interests me (pve mode) is time limited and limited to the night map is just a decision. I really liked the free play test but the final games has shown me that I'm not made for extraction shooters. Between this and the forever winter Ivehad enough of the genre to not bother. Except for far far west or the occasional wichfire round. But yeah wont be bothering with marathon. I do hope however that it stays around because there is an audience for it
Welp I just hope they let IOI work without interfering too much. If they strictly.stay at publishing then it should be fine. Iirc IOI has 3 games planed so we'll see how it turns out
As much as I love open world games but sometimes you need a well directed linear adventure. Can't wait for all the insane setpieces we'll get to experience
Less games and often worse sequels that cost more. Plus the push for live service games especially cringeworthy bland fortnite lookalikes. I mean no surprise really.
Wow thats sad. I dont lime his games too much but the man had visions and stuck with them. I cannot deny the mans talent and his cinematic flair aswell as his approach to the medium. Seeing this is sad. Refn aswell. Just sad to see such great creatives give in to AI. Hopefully this is just a one off experiment and not a sign of what is to come.
@Czar_Khastik only if the Ads are completely irrelevant to my interests, are overly long (minimum of 5 minutes), always come in groups of atleast 3 and are unskippable.
So UE 5 is so fundamentally broken we are already talking about UE6? Or does it
Just feel like barely any time has passed since UE5 gained traction..... it's probably a time feel thing for me I guess. Anyways I just hope UE 6 isn't the dumbsterfire that UE 5 is.
I cannot wait for townfall. Silent hill F had some interesting themes which sadly didn't resonate with me as much as my significant other. But Im glad konami is experimenting with different styles. Even if we get the occasional failures, like book of memories
Omg guys that trailer was amazing. I love how they show all the new activities like flying alligators and riding flamingos. I am skeptical on the new control sheme they have. Havin to use l2 and r2 to walk and using l1 and r1 to use the arms with the corresponding control sticks is gonna be wild. The reload minigame also looks like a more complicated gears of war. I am glad that they confirmed that theyllbe skipping ps5 though and instead release it on the new PS Brain. Get ready folks it's gonna be a wild one!
I never managed to finish returnal. I got stuck at the 3rd biome and ultimately gave up. Saros while it looks more manageable is 80 bucks. I'm sorry but I'm not.gonna spend that much money on a game im not a 100% on. So I'll be waiting for a sale.
Someone actually looked at the planets and stars and their position in relation to each announcement made by rockytar on all their games (or atlwast all gtas). He use this data to then calculate when gta 6 will receive a trailer. The reddit posts reads like a fever dream and it actuall, impressed me, because it took him 3 months to research and write it all down. Its hilarious and well worth a read
All this focus on day one sales is just soooo bad. Not everyone has the funds to get a game the second it is released. Lets talk about a week about sales. Or better a month.I know it'll be a while before I get my hands on it. Economy is just bad atm
The more I see and hear from thsi game the more I can't wait. Been replaying the arkaham series (without the vr outings) in anticipation. I didntlike skywalker saga as much as I thought I would. I felt that the episodes themselves were too abridged. So if this can avoid that then it'll definitely be one of the best lego games.
