At Sony hq:

"We need to stop with these extraction-likes and gaas!"

"Okay." "Agreed."

"But helldivers 2 is so successful!!"

"Okay. Full steam ahead!!"

I found a way to buy an $80 game. Wait for a sale.

Money is money. Why do anything that hurts income if no one says anything? It was removed because someone said something, and only because of that. Not because of some moral imperative to keep stolen property off the store. Sony/nin/xb/steam are collecting 30% off each purchase.

Usually how it works is:

Gamers: that game was awesome! We want more! A sequel!

*Game releases

Gamers: boooo! It's too similar!! Or not similar enough!!

Either way, gamers tend to not know what they want.

Plenty of blame to go around. Jade for not releasing anything, ever. Sony for not recognizing talent, lately.

Anime style gacha games are the new soulslike. Surprised Sony hasn't jumped on this trend. Probably better chance of success than the hero/extraction shooters.

I can wait for a sale, or in borderlands case, for the ultimate edition with all the dlcs. They're just gonna hurt launch day numbers. New releases in general.

New Vegas to coincide with fallout season 2.

Gamestop offered $320 store credit for my base launch ps5 disc. Wanted to put it towards a ps5pro. Even with the trade-in I'm looking at upwards of $450+(ps5pro w/disc drive). Im good on the extra frames. And if gta vi is mainly dependant on the cpu, then the pro won't matter one lick.

Why backwards compatibility when you can sell remakes and remasters?

"I have no strong feelings one way or the other." -Neutral President 😐

The soundtrack alone is worth the price of admission.

"The ps is a xbox." 🤣🤣

If it's turn-based, I'm interested. If they're thinking about a ffvii style remake, I'm good.

It's a crazy time we live in. Starting death stranding on xbox and seeing a sie splash screen; seeing an xbox game on playstation.

@HRdepartment buy used. Zero dollars goes to ubi, you get to play it cheaply.

Tlou, gta v, and skyrim of these three which will get a ps6/nxbox/switch 2 port?

It's pretty to look at. About as deep as a kiddie pool.

It's a nice feature. Wish more game devs did cross progression. I play cyberpunk on the series x, pick up where i left off on the steam deck. Same with the witcher iii. Play on the series x, play it on the switch on the go.

Be nice considering my ps+ account is synced with my steam account, if it worked with GoTsushi and hd2. Play here, pick up there.

Sony: 😈 haha! We'll become the largest shareholder of fromsoft parent company. And those games will be ours!! MUWHAHA..

Fromsoft: 😄 our next game will be a switch 2 exclusive.

Sony: 😶 wha...

This is ANTI-recency bias. Think of ALL the games KCD2 has influenced in its short time. Like..

..that's not the point!

*God of war Greek trilogy and bloodborne anniversaries pass.

Sony: We here you and we've listened! Here is the tlouP1Re and P2Re REpackaged, just for you!!

I'll say it til I'm blue in the face. I want a killzone/resistance for psvr2, ala HL:Alyx.

@JustMyOpinion Join the fight for Managed Democracy! Join the Helldivers today!!

Remember the Milo tech demo with the kinect camera on xbox?

@LogicStrikesAgain people made an ai chat mod for skyrim and stardew

We live in an age where people who can afford to pay for privilege, do so. Simple. Whether it's buying a car(base model or top of the line), using a paid lane on the roads, or fast pass at amusement parks, buying a premium edition game over the vanilla version, or even ad-free tier on streaming platforms. People pay for privilege. Its OPTIONAL. Don't want the perks, then stay with the basic tier.

Is he reading valves playbook? Specifically the one that says, "do not make a third game."

I'm sure the ps+ streaming has helped. A few people probably just grabbed the portal and a sub. Cheap way to play some ps5 games.

Make a great singleplayer farcry game with a fun multiplayer tacked on, like the olden days. Watch the money roll in.

By the time anyone releases a game based on a trend(br, hero shooters, extraction), the trend has usually passed or has its established games. Look at sony's late to the party gaas debacle.

In the states it's 3rd and 4th(premium and standard edition) on the pre-order charts. Maybe similar elsewhere. Just saiyan.

I want a killzone or resistance made for the psvr2. And some patches for cyberpunk, gta, robocop, etc., for psvr2 as well. And imagine some of the old school light gun games on psvr2. Some time crisis, house of the dead, point blank.

Love my deck. Put about 100+hrs on helldivers 2. 30+ hrs on cyberpunk. Just starting rdr 2. What I see most from detractors is "it isn't really portable." My definition may be different than theirs. I don't try to play in the car, at a restaurant, etc. It's portable-ness comes down to i can bring grand triple-A experices with me, wherever I go, with out lugging my ps5/pc, or streaming, etc. Just my deck/switch and a charger and I'm gaming like I would've at home, but elsewhere.

Social media has taught me that everyone thinks they have something interesting or poignant to say, but they don't.

Those 200ish copies of lego horizon on pc must've funded quite a few games.

/s

Days gone, hzd, tlou 1/2, dead space, silent hill 2, resident evil, soul reaver, tomb raider remasters/remakes. Baldurs gate iii, astro bot, kcd2, and other sequels.

I don't think gamers WANT new experiences.

I joined the top tier this past black Friday deals. Wanted to take a look at some of the portal streaming games and some of the psvr2 games.

After all the silliness warzone introduced, and apex and fortnite being what they are, people probably just wanted something less absurd. Went back to a free pubg with plenty of updates.

"..the mock reviews it was conducting internally were "way higher" than what critics gave the game.."

There's problem no.1.

Pc users: we don't want a mandatory psn log-in.

Ps users: BABIES! THE LOT OF YA!

Ps users: ....we need a workaround for the log-in during outages!

Pot, meet kettle.

The big complaint with the "compensation" is there are plenty of gamers affected by the outage that aren't subscribed. So this compensation means nothing to them. I understand where they are coming from.

Also, would you accept/want free food from a restaurant that gave you shyte food to begin with?

Sequels, remasters, and remakes, oh my! Creatively bankrupt. Nows a good of time as any to tackle the backlog.
