Acting like people are expecting anything for free is misguided at best and completely dishonest at worst. None of this is free. We bought the game. I'm not giving them more money for the same thing I already own to get an upgrade to next gen and I won't buy it on next gen either.
Also it should be pointed out as much as possible that this is a middle finger to Google and Apple which is fine, great even but they're paying 30% fees there and only giving you 20%.
They seem to be saying they're passing the full savings on to you which is why I brought it up.
@Kafkaesque no the simple fact is our principles are different. I never said you were a bigot. If you can't take being lumped in with people who share your opinion that's on you.
Also not that it matters but since you're gonna pull that card I'm also gay.
@rachetmarvel you hold Sony but not the publisher? Not the developer? Where are their principles? Surely if censorship is do bad they hold responsibility for not pulling their work? Oh wait it's ok for them to cash in.
@Kafkaesque oh look at you censoring my opinion by saying I lack principles. The simple fact of the matter is that it's not censorship. It's a business making a decision. People who have 'principles" and get upset by censorship often don't have a clue what actually being censored is. It's the crying because Facebook deleted my made up story because it wasn't real crowd. Or the gays need to shut up and go away crowd. Or the death threats are protected speech crowd. Such principles they have.
@rachetmarvel I never said everyone. I simply pointed out what was going on. And the other response also makes my point so please read it.
Oh no anime is being held to same content standards as everything else.
I think the fact people who bought the Fairy Tail game were more upset by them censoring panty shots than the shoddy game itself says all we need to about people who are anti-"censorship".
I mean both Sony and Microsoft have tons of money. Either can does and will do this. We could add Nintendo as well.
I usually just buy everything but what is the logic behind this fanboyism? Is it because you can only afford one and that makes you attached to it? I don't get it. They're companies. They don't care about you.
I'm going to be that guy and say giving Fairy Tail a 7 and this a 6 is just another reason to get rid of ratings.
I get different reviewers but the rating system is the same for everyone and yet people seem to use different standards. Maybe make a rubric or ditch it?
They just want you to buy a new console. I'm so sick of the whole it won't run it excuse. First The Outer World's tried it and it was laughable. Now Sony tries it.
It has nothing to do with whether it would work or not. It has to do with making you buy a new console. Also the whole down porting conversation is silly because most consoles have similar architecture nowadays. It's barely a port.
The Switch is only special because of what it has to use to be portable.
I think they're gonna find that sales are going to suffer somewhat for next-gen because of the state of the world. It seems silly to put all your eggs in one basket as Sony seems determined to do.
Of course they may be lying just to get people to upgrade and then pull a switch on them and release the games. That would honestly be hilarious.
Edit: don't you have a rumor category specific to rumors? If Microsoft is saying no, which you indicate in your own article that's news. Rumors are not news.
Just skimming the comments but freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. It's a conversation that always comes up time and time again. Death threats aren't even a freedom of speech issue so I'm not sure why it even came up other than that people seem to use the issue as a crutch for whatever hateful or harmful thing they have want to express nowadays.
I don't think this is all the good. People can whine about negativity but it's a 10 year anniversary and they're not even bothering to give decent games really.
For people who already bought the games that just means they don't have to provide you anything this month so win-win for them!
Outer World has loads of loading screens. It's not rendering anything all at once without loading. This is just another excuse from a company know for making excuses for why their games aren't as good as they should be.
This has nothing do with ethics or censorship. It's just an excuse for people to complain about stupid stuff and act like they're not the ones whining.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With You PS Plus Games for September 2020?
I don't understand how people figure Sony is giving me anything for free here. I pay for this each month. I can complain about it all I want.

It's a bad look for them.

Re: Godfall Is Making the Most of PS5's Unique Controller Features
I just want my controller to control the game. Keep the light bars and haptic stuff.

Re: Dragon Quest XI S on PS4 Is a Switch Port, No Upgrade for Existing Dragon Quest XI Players
I don't understand how this is bad but Persona 5 is fine. They literally added about the same amount of content and charged you for a full game.
Mind I still bought P5 and P5R and already own DQ11 and DQ11S so this doesn't matter to me really.

Re: Gamer Girl Dev Removes Announcement Trailer and Marketing Following Backlash
The irony in watching the same fanbase who attempted to cancel The Last Of Us 2 try to talk about snowflakes and cancel culture.
Timeless.
Re: Danganronpa Games Will Be Pulled From PlayStation Store in September
I'm glad to see someone point out that you can still download what you've actually bought.
I don't understand why people push the narrative that you can't.

Re: As Microsoft Looks Poised to Discontinue Xbox One, Sony Has a Huge Opportunity with PS4
No way is this true. It's even stupid as a rumor.
Edit: don't you have a rumor category specific to rumors? If Microsoft is saying no, which you indicate in your own article that's news. Rumors are not news.

Re: PS Plus Free PS4 Games Announced for July 2020
I expected more for an anniversary.

For people who already bought the games that just means they don't have to provide you anything this month so win-win for them!
Re: Talking Point: What Free July 2020 PS Plus Games Are You Hoping For?
I want RPGs. I don't even care if I own them. They never give them and that's so stupid.
Re: The Last of Us 2 Petition Demands Dramatic Story Alterations
This what mass censorship looks like just so everyone can finally be clear about it and stop whining when Sony removes their favorite T&A simulator.
Re: The Last of Us 2 Review Bombing Continues, Online Discourse Increasingly Ugly
This isn't Xbox fanboys. This is Sony's conservative block having a meltdown all over again.
It happened to Nintendo too.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Delayed Yet Again to 19th November
If this was anyone else people would be complaining but they always get a free pass for everything they do.
Re: The Last of Us 2 - Essential Sequel Is Naughty Dog's Best Effort
If they'd made an anime game about tits and ass all the upset people would be happy and whine about censorship if no one bought it.
Shoes on the other foot now guys.
Re: PS Vita Exclusive Persona 4 Golden Is Jumping to PC, No Word on PS4
Its so stupid to just release it on PC and nothing else.
Just asking to lose money. Hopefully they remedy that.
Re: EA Play 2020 Postponed to 18th June in Support of BLM Protests
I don't see an issue with this but I know the community will whine about how meaningless it is as their contribution to the conversation.
Re: New The Last of Us 2 Video Is All About the Story
The comments were as bad as I expected. Just the normal fan I know the story better than the creators of the story stuff.
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
This is the first sign next gen isn't going to be all it's cracked up to be.
Re: PlayStation Store Suspended Indefinitely in China
Finally a story about actual real life censorship on this site.
Re: PlayStation Disables Likes, Dislikes, and Comments on The Last of Us 2's New Trailer
Good for them.
Re: Mass Effect Trilogy HD Remaster Is Finally Happening, Apparently
I'd be ok with just solid well running rereleases.
Re: The Last of Us 2 Leaks Apparently Released by Hackers, Not Affiliated with Naughty Dog
It's amazing how pro-censorship the anti-censorship side comes when they don't agree with something. It's hilarious.
Re: PS Vita Support Shows No Signs of Slowing in 2020
I didn't expect people to still be making excuses for why the Vita failed.
Re: Soapbox: Final Fantasy VII Remake's Cloud Goes From Hero to Zero in a Single Side Quest
Just played it and it's quite obvious that Cloud isn't be rude.
Re: The Outer Worlds Was Held Back by Console Memory Budgets
Outer World has loads of loading screens. It's not rendering anything all at once without loading.
This is just another excuse from a company know for making excuses for why their games aren't as good as they should be.
Re: New AAA PS4 Game Releases Are Quickly Starting to Slow Down
As if the next generation consoles can't also be delayed by this.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Has a Serious Texture Quality Issue on PS4 and PS4 Pro
It is pretty bad. I noticed in the door of the inn. Looks like PS1 textures and I have a pro.
Re: Resident Evil 3 Remake Leaves Some Fans Fuming Over Jill Valentine's Skirt
This has nothing do with ethics or censorship. It's just an excuse for people to complain about stupid stuff and act like they're not the ones whining.
