Sure.
Let's be clear here, your point goes basically as follows
People: Trump is a dumb piece of shit
Fantomena : You have no proof of that, that's a theory not a fact. Also he thinks you guys are dumb pieces of shit too, what now?

Well, your original point was "Atlus knows better" or "there's more to it than they're clueless".
Oh I can prove that Trump is a racist piece of shit.
I simply do not think that the reason for why sometimes some companies are not releasing their games on PC is because they are dumb or backwards. There can f.ex. be money involded, moneyhatting?
Then I received some arguments and changed my mind on Atlus.

It's a fact that Atlus are dumb and backwards, you can just observe their dumb and backwards actions they have done over and over, so you need a better example.

For smaller companies ? Right.
For big companies ? Dumb af.
There's litterally no reason to think a game like Persona 5 wouldnt sell at least 300k.
As for Atlus being dumb, it's factual: Their streaming guideline (which shows they are clueless about this generation), the fact they never had a European branch (when Europe is fairly sensitive to Japanese games, moreso than USA).

I'm sure many companies have their reasons, usually business related I'm sure, for not releasing a game on PC but Atlus is fucking backwards. Their threat to people who want to stream their game is proof of that.

Helldivers is special. It's an indie game published by Sony, but they likely had in their deal the requirement to release on PC afterward.
See, we don't know, as far as I know. They might have not payed fully for exclusive, it might have been part of an agreement. It's not always as easy as "because Sony/Housemarque is dumb/backwards".
Likely the way the contract was structured initially.

Well, you are moving the goalposts now. No one asked why Sony doesn't release stuff on PC, they are a platform holder with no interest in the platform...
It's a small indie game, they don't give a crap about keeping it exclusive. It's likely they just let the developers make a PC version if they want.
LMAO
Move those goalposts further why won't ya.
No Im not? Im talking in general why some companies are sometimes not or never releasing games on PC.
Kurt Russell

Yeah, but you chose a specific company that doesn't need to release their stuff on PC. What's the point of discussing that?
GhostTrick

Right... but what is your point here ? We're talking about a Sony published/owned game.
First party console owner company not releasing their IPs on PC? What a shocker holy shit like literally everyone in the world was discussing those companies when talking about companies that don't release games on PC oh wait no
To discuss why Sony aren't allowing more (older) games to release on PC, games that perhaps might have been forgotten.
There were rumors about Journey being released on Steam through that SteamDB link, if it was the Sony game.
But yeah I see.
Kurt Russell

Yeah, because we were all talking about the SteamDB leak... Come on, this isn't going anywhere and piling up even more unrelated arguments won't make it go somewhere.

Also:
No jumpscares
For people contemplating a purchase that are bothered by these elements
Not entirely true.
Remember the arms of the eyeless enemy slamming through the wall? Chapter 2 or 3 I believe.
This game is good.
In its core it's a Limbo clone, but due to the production value and better presentation, better than both, Limbo and Inside imho, people who've played them know what to expect tho
It's got some really nice ideas and a very creepy atmosphere. I very much recommend this game.
It's also only 2.5 hours long, so it never overstays its welcome
Also:
No spiders
No gore
No jumpscares

Im interested, but it costs a lot of money.

It would be so much easier to buy P4G on Steam, than to find my Vita somwhere in the house, then find the charger, then find the correct memory card and then start playing.
That reminds me, I still have a big Vita backlog. Ive barely touched Soul Sacrifice.

Don't you dare bring that trash in here.
There is no war, Makoto is best. No need to fight you. The end.
Oh EVE, I love reading about you, but not playing you.

p3 is the better game than p4, don't listen to everyone that tells you otherwise
you can always skip fights in tartarus straight to the boss, you will also be underleveled but it's also super fun when you are
Chie's from Persona 4 though.
Dunno, it's the only Persona game I have. I didn't like the fact I need to dick around doing activities around the school in order to build up my stats, and the fact there are 200+ floors killed my will to play it.
checkmate roboleon
I mean each floor is super short and most of the story is from the activities in school... it's basically what the game is
I checked that thread once. A poster was running a poll asking gaffer which girl he should date in P5. A poll about which girl to date in a game. Think about it. Some people are peculiar for sure.

So Prophecy of Pendor (a Mount&Blade mod) has achievements...
They actually give in-game bonuses, which is something I wish caught on instead of the whole "score" thing. (Also, there's negative achievements!) It gives a lot more room to personalise a game than just an arbitrary, out-of-game score/checklist.
Now that I think about it, Alpha Protocol basically had a similar system, though it didn't classify them as "achievements." And it was cool there, too.
Huh. I guess the fatigue system ins FES is different than Portable. The only thing that fatigued characters in the latter was being KOed and rezzed out of battle; it kind of made the system superfluous.
(Yes, that is my character--Artylla--in a weird running pose.)

Savage The Shard of Gosen looks very neat. Another 1-man joint, inspired by Zelda 2 of all things
