All these people pressuring Sony to do day-and-date first party releases ("because they're a billion dollar company") clearly aren't properly evaluating the quality of Sony's products. Sony's competition is currently offering first party games day one for dirt cheap on gamepass, yet PS5 is still outselling xbox. There's a reason people are picking $70 games over "the best value in gaming". The market speaks for itself. Sony not recognizing their value would be tremendously stupid.
The fact that Sony hasn't done anything with Bloodborne is mind-boggling to me. Looking at the reception of Elden Ring, one can only hope that someone over there would take notice.
The irony is that Comcast can get away with their ***** practices because the ISP industry has practically been consolidated. Somehow gamers fail to see that major corporations consolidating other major corporations ultimately gives consumers less options (even if they get short term benefits). Given the way the gaming industry is heading, I'm expecting to see gaming resembling the current TV streaming cesspool perpetuated by bloated companies.
@tomassi "So it's in said companies best interests to treat it's customers well otherwise the customer may just decide to shop elsewhere instead."
You know what else is in their interests? Getting their consumers to pay a fair price of their products representative of the value they bring. If you don't feel like Sony is "treating you well" (I'm not sure what that really means since Sony isn't your friend, or spouse), then go find another company that will.
"Companies do indeed owe us nothing." I agree, but that's not the prevailing view in the gaming community anymore. Now, being a consumer makes someone special in need of free games, and access to financial loopholes in services.
@get2sammyb Disgrace? Let me get this straight, so some people tried to take advantage of a service to gain potentially hundreds of dollars worth of service, yet Sony blocking this is disgraceful? I'm not sure what happened to the gaming community, but it's turned into a cesspool of self-entitled people expecting companies to be "pro-consumer". No one owes you people anything. No one has to be pro-you. If you like a product or service, then support it. Otherwise don't. You guys spend so much time whining; it's as almost you forget that people commit their lives working on all these products you consume.
