Interestingly there is a pretty major community uproar in China about the PC release, because the Asian version (and only the Asian version) has "Only on PlayStation" on the cover implying it being an exclusive:



It was not on other version of the game, not even the Japanese cover has it:
That's interesting, wonder why they did that. And they're right to be angry as they were lied to there were many who would've waited and bought on PC too if they didn't lie about the fake exclusivity which prompted some people to buy it not on their preferred platform

Need to plan my purchases as can't buy all the stuff i want. But this will defenitely make the cut. I mean it's from the Ninja Gaiden devs yo.
Can't wait to get my hands on it. Would have already but Zelda and Switch happened.

Lie

Fake exclusivity

Man whats got you so worked up that you make up a conspiracy for this.

Its exclusive to ps and wont come to other consoles.

More ps exclusives are also on pc.

Pc port was not thought about at launch.

It was according to SteamDB. The app was uploaded more than a year ago. That's called moneyhat.

That's very fishy from Sony if the Chinese box art has the "Only on PlayStation", i mean, they did it "#4ThePlayers", yes?

Agreed.

In fact, unless it's a 1st-party IP, I'll just assume all 3rd-party exclusives are timed~~~

Lying about exclusivity, with regards to Nier and Nioh, reflects extremely poorly on Sony.

I wish they'd just give it to Durante and let him have a look at it. I'm not really interested in 'content creator' opinions on youtube.
well i am pretty sure if such a well-known person as Durante would write them on the "content creator invitation" they would surely give him access ... unless the port is dumpster fire

TBH I don't really understand the China's outrage over the exclusivity logo. For me, I always thought Nioh is exclusive as well but I'm beyond excited it's coming to PC too because that m,eans more people can enjoy such a great game, and PC allows some fun with modding and su=tuff.
 
Moneyhat against pc yeah right lol

If it was uploaded on SteamDB over a year ago, it means i was always been developed with PC in mind.
Whether it was Sony that said to not talk about it or K-T. Who knows?

The same happened with FFX-X2 though. The app on Steam was already finished (the PC port) at the same time the Remaster on PS4 came out. The question then was "Why didnt S-E release it at the same time as the PC-version". It either might be to hope for double-dippers or because they have a contract with Sony. Who knows what really happened.

Has the Complete Edition on PS4 been made available for purchase anywhere? I'd rather own physically but the game plus Season Pass is currently £31.99 on EU PSN and am tempted to buy.

It's not out until Nov/Dec. The current deal happening on the UK/EU PSN store is essentially the Complete Edition at a price much lower than what the Complete Edition will eventually be sold for.

Also, UK/EU isn't getting a physical edition so you might as well pounce on it now.
 
This is definitely a double-dipper for me but with so many new games coming soon and a few still in my backlog to play... This one is a “wait for a sale” scenario for me.

The Complete edition will go on sale for full digital price (£54.99) when it releases, which is a ridiculous price anyway. Don’t expect it to go on sale very quick after that. Your best bet would be to buy the Deluxe now, as you aren’t missing out on any content.

Is there anything in the deluxe edition worth getting since I'm seeing its overall cheaper buying the base game and a season pass.

Yeah, GotY editions seem like a good way to get the price back up and 'reset' the sale process.

In the FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Remaster example we should add the release date :
ps4 : May 12, 2015
pc : May 12, 2016
I mean it's hard to make it more clear that a 1 year deal was in place when you see that.
 
You're oddly worked up about your fave megacorp being accused of moneyhatting on the internet

Lol, I play more on pc than any console these days. But sure whatever, keep thinking I'm a Sony warrior.

Having consoles from every company since the NES.

Be glad you are getting this game at all.

What the hell is your point? Should PC players not get worked up over timed exclusivity deals? Sonyfans are worked up everywhere over PUBG's, with reason.

Oh come the fuck on. Game is good, but it's not like PC doesn't have the most "Soulslike" games out of all platforms.

It was a lie, fake exclusive, and moneyhat. That's all there is to it.
I'm happy more people get to play the game on PC now and might even grab it cheap myself later on the road, and I hope in future some lawsuit or something against Sony with this false advertising shit, they even had the exclusive stamp on EU website.

Good that I haven't bought the PS4 version then. I like to keep just the exclusives for PS4 and just have the fighting games regardless in the PS4. Look forward for the Steam version.

Guess not.

My point is pc players shouldnt get so worked up, instead they should be happy they are getting such a great game.

Would have gotten it sooner if it wasn't a timed exclusive by Sony :D

"Be grateful you can be allowed to spend your money".

You're the only person being worked up here. People are saying, obviously, a deal has been going on since the game was seemingly planned for PC more than a year ago. It's a fact.

Be grateful you have the option to spend money to play this awesome game. If you dont want it dont buy it?

Wait for a pricedrop if you want, noone is forcing you to buy it full price.

I'm not worked up at all lol.

PC needed a game like this, desperately.

If there's a genre that PC lacks is third-person anything, be it shooters, adventures, and especially action games.

"Glad" for "getting" the game? So this is not a product KT is putting forward for purchase?

Fuck outta here with your the PC players nonsense and maybe consider not wasting your free time on doing PR for platform holders on neogaf.com. It's clear as day what happened here, the same thing has happened to many other games in the past, and games will keep getting held hostage from potential audiences in the future with people like you championing this blatantly anti-consumer system.

You guys are annoying with this exclusive shit. It was never a PlayStation IP. They only published the game outside of Japan to bring more awareness to it. Koei Tecmo owns Nioh. The only exclusivity promise was probably the fact that it will remain only on the PS4 & will not release on the Xbox One or Switch. Other than that, PC is fair game. What's so wrong with the game releasing on PC? How does it personally affect your life? Are you losing sleep over this?
