The moderators think you're fine somehow, but I can promise you that any response from me matching the amount of retard energy you're throwing my way will catch me a swift ban. I'll just take my disgusting poison worshipping into another thread with a higher ratio of normal people in it now.Sorry but this post screams desperate to me.
You sound like someone who’s in need to worship something or someone. Who cares what a suits says only sheep do that’s who. Being a costumer is simple, make a good product and i’ll buy it. I don’t need you to pretend to like gaming or being a
”gamer” like this Phil guy or say something ”smart” or ”funny”. When people say these suits are not your friend it means THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND!!!
These exces wants your money more than anything else and if they manage to make you worship them in the process then their job becomes easier. Don’t you get it???
In other words you will look the other way when they do you or anyone else wrong, or even worse you will start defending them for their poor choices etc etc…. It’s not rocket science. We see this all over the internet.
Now wake the fuck up and stop being under the spell of some suit. It’s weird and out right disgusting. It’s poison nothing more nothing less.

Even thots can be goofy extremist fantards. IDK about everyone else, but that is infinitely more cringe coming from a chick.
I'll take you and the other guy's word for it. Mentally imbalanced.If you Google the name, click images…. Yeah that’s not a chick.
Hell noTime for Neil Druckmann to enter the scene.

This coming from you is absolutely priceless, my stomage hurts.You seem to be doing a fine job of compensating for him/her, so I think we're good.
Since Stephanie McMahon left WWE, I fully endorse this comment.There is nothing "normal" about worshiping (or needing to worship) company executives my man.

You assume right, the first time you made me laugh instead of rolling my eyes.I assume you mean your stomach hurts?
I don't know if that's realistic. Sony's a business; someone was always going to steer in the live service direction when there are numerous examples of insane profitability in them.I agree. I'm also not a fan of the GAAS direction he was steering the brand towards. So I'd like to see them return to being more focused on singleplayer games (and more of them) and being more open to new IP (and giving new IP more of a chance when promise is shown).
Jack Tretton and Shan Layden were never president of SIE/SCE, they were presidents of SCE North America. North America is not the world.What metric are you using as a measurement here? You’re completely missing Jack Trenton and Shawn Layden, unless this is about a different position?
Ah okay, SIE/SCE. Sorry you didn't specify so I wasn't sure.Jack Tretton and Shan Layden were never president of SIE/SCE, they were presidents of SCE North America.
Since you brought up Xbox, you should ask yourself: Has putting their games on PC helped the quality of the games? I would say the exact opposite.I know it's pathetic, but some people only want Sony to stop porting their games so they can mock Xbox again for having no exclusives. Real gamers should think like you.
I don't see a quality loss. Most AAA games are mid to high 80s and most Xbox and PS AAAs are in that range. I think it's rather a supersaturation, because games don't seem to try something new. Dev costs are insane these days and so they play it safe.Since you brought up Xbox, you should ask yourself: Has putting their games on PC helped the quality of the games?

Multiplatform development always comes at a cost. Technologically, it presents challenges, and you can see the difference in the behaviors the likes of Sony (formerly) and Nintendo take compared to the big boys like Activision, EA, or even storied single player focused publishers like Bethesda.
Is it a coincidence that Sony's games to this point haven't been as impressive as they usually are, if they've shown them at all? Are they future proofing their games for scalability on PCs? Is it a coincidence that the same gen they start doing that, they greenlight 12 live services?
The sooner Nixxes becomes a remaster/tech support studio solely for PlayStation consoles, the better.
But isn't the middle of the generation the best moment to leave?There's a pretty big chance they actually did. All I've been hearing is "Jim Ryan's leading PlayStation's best performance ever"...
If it were really him, why the sudden retirement, in the middle of the console generation? Really makes you wonder.
They needed better plan to counter xbox from a future perspective at the expense of casting anything else, starfield is just the beginning, marathon is meh, Sonys new ips should deserve more attention, all the signs shows it may get worse from here for Sony.Wonder if it’s tied to his action/inaction with Xbox acquisition of Activision/Blizzard.
He has liteeally come out and said their focus will be GAAS and multiplayer. Covid has had an effect but studios wouldnt focused on MP if he hadnt chosen that focusThink back over the last 3 to 4 years. Can you think of any particular world event that may have hindered the software output of the entire industry?
Anyways, here is the list I'm currently working off of for the remainder of the gen for first party, XDEV, indie and third party exclusives games. Including announced, leaked, rumored and deduced content
PlayStation Studios |OT37| Your friendly neighborhood OT Sony - OT
Ok, time for a variant of the list. This time breaking down on what we could see each year from SIE published titles and third party console exclusives. I think a flaw in the previous list is that it's just a random assortment of games with no direction. Seeing how things COULD break down by...www.resetera.com
The rest of the gen will have a VERY dense lineup, and the majority of that will be content that was greenlit under Jim Ryans command.
He he also said that they weren't giving up on single player games and are investing more in them they are about to lose some of the biggest multiplayer games why shouldn't they make any?He has liteeally come out and said their focus will be GAAS and multiplayer.

And whats risk have they taken lately with their games? The gaming division has made over $10B profits since 2016-2017 when the division's profits started to skyrocket as people transitioned to buying games on the PS store and mtx galore.You're simplifying the facts. SIE are still focusing on single player games just as much as they ever have. Only now they're growing the overall business to add a strong live service push alongside the single player push.
Adding a focus of live service games isn't "going backwards", that's a reductionist, elitist, small minded way of thinking. PlayStation as a platform has a MASSIVE array of live service games on it and a HUGE playerbase for those live service games. SIE now wants some of the games those people play to be their own rather than purely third party. While also capturing new audiences with these games on PC and mobile.
Any fan of their single player games should HOPE that they succeed with the live service push as that strengthens SIE overall, allows them to be more self sufficient and to take more risks. A rising tide lifts all boats.
Or Kaz. Actually I'm surprised that awesome fake Kaz twitter account hasn't posted.Bring back Krazy Ken
But making the studios renowned for good single player games make a MP GAAS effort instead is diverting resources away from the type of project the sony ecosystem invested players are used to and expect.You're simplifying the facts.

And I tell you if PS does not make effort into PC ports then they can better spend on making games for their console. If it’s just video games then waiting for some games is okay then? No need to spoil other people’s platform by wanting the platform company to implement a strategy that can possibly damage the platform.What's with you? You are making this weirdly personal. If I don't have to spend $500 on another device then that is reason enough for me to want all games on one platform. It's really just that simple. Why don't you step back and try to discuss this without being personally offended by this stuff? It's just video games man.
Oh wow! It’s like the majority of PC gamers just play AAA games and not some competitive games like LOL, Fortnite, Valorant, CSGO. It’s like Xbox does not have the competitive games that PS has. So now that we know most PC gamers only play online games, I guess not porting games to PC will not affect the platform that much.As I said before, PS games on PC will not transform console gamers into PC gamers. The majority of PS gamers are not even gaming there for exclusives. They are there for the CODs, Maddens, FIFAs, Fortnite, etc etc. We see that every year in the PS best selling games
Because it will damage the console sales? Didn’t I tell you that right on my first reply? You think the day-one release will not damage but I think it will? Telling me not to take this personal but right after asking me ”how does it reduce my enjoyment”, are you being ironic? I’m not in here for a gamer’s perspective, I’m in here for a PS gamer’s perspective. I want the benefits of owning the console, just like how you PC players compliment and dear your PC. This is not about taking it personal or anything, this is a discussion, and If you do not want to discuss, don’t reply.Nah. If I believed that PS games being on PC day one would truly damage the PS platform then I would not be in favor of it at all. But that's simply not the case, imo.
But you tell me why it is so important for PS games to not be on PC day one? How does it reduce your enjoyment of those games? But please.....stop making it personal.
But they didn't divert resources the just hired new teams for the them the single player teams are still making single player games.But making the studios renowned for good single player games make a MP GAAS effort instead is diverting resources away from the type of project the sony ecosystem invested players are used to and expect.
So people have to work a second job to by his expensive s.Bring back Krazy Ken
Which means the amount of SP games as a % of their portfolio is getting smaller and smaller. Over the next few years there’s supposed to be around 10 GAAS games and excludes bungie who specializes in GAAS shooters. All those games will be way more than SP games.But they didn't divert resources the just hired new teams for the them the single player teams are still making single player games.
But you also a are geting more single player every studio making a multiplayer game is also working on single player games some of them multiple single player games there is no first party studio that's exclusively working on multiplayer.Which means the amount of SP games as a % of their portfolio is getting smaller and smaller.

Players who game on console spend thousands buying new games. Not to mention people who do collections. These people can comfortably invest in PC if they want. Sure, not every single console owner does this, but the same can be said about PC owners, most just use a middle tier rigs, play online games and wait for steam sales. A portion of PC owners are also pirates of the seas. While exclusives might not sell as well as online games, they sell as well as any other big AAA games on the market (sooner or later, PS exclusives will sell even better now that the brand is bigger than ever). And while not all console buyers buy exclusives, exclusives build the prestige for the console, and that prestige attracts people to buy them. Enthusiasm builds everything, and I’ve seen enough people who engage in gaming discussion talk about how they feel buying PS5 is a waste of money because of all the PC ports. You lost your enthusiasts and you lose your casuals. Of course you don’t think this will happen, and to be fair, what will be your loss when PS consoles fail anyway, you don’t even game there that much. That is why your PC crowd’s interests are pointless to PS console interests, so PC enthusiasts should stop whining about why PS enthusiasts whine about PC ports. And stop aggregating Sony into your typical publisher’s group, Sony is in a business to sell consoles, not just sell games like your typical publishers or studios.Sure....I get that. I'm just speaking generally. I think most console gamers want the simple plug-and-play experience in their living room. The also don't want to invest a lot in hardware or build a PC. I think we can point to a set of characteristics that appeal to gamers who game on console and that's why they game on console. The games being on another platform isn't going to change any of those characteristics and suddenly make a bunch of people want a PC in their living room.
All that to say I don't believe PS games on PC day one will have a dramatic impact on PS console numbers. The vast majority of console gamers will remain console gamers.
He he also said that they weren't giving up on single player games and are investing more in them they are about to lose some of the biggest multiplayer games why shouldn't they make any?
Andrew House signed blank checks to Kojima and company, he is among the most based suits in my opinion.PlayStation CEO's have been mostly clueless. I suppose Andrew House was the best one.
And I tell you if PS does not make effort into PC ports then they can better spend on making games for their console.
That is why your PC crowd’s interests are pointless to PS console interests, so PC enthusiasts should stop whining about why PS enthusiasts whine about PC ports.

But making the studios renowned for good single player games make a MP GAAS effort instead is diverting resources away from the type of project the sony ecosystem invested players are used to and expect.
First and foremost, because Sony have a well documented history of allowing their studios to choose their own projects, these things aren't forced upon them from up above. Also keep in mind that many PlayStation games have had multiplayer modes, so these studios have been wanting to do more than just straight single player content. Now SIE is giving them the additional money. time and resources to do full scale stand alone titles if that's what they want to do.
1) Look at TLOU Online for example. It started off as the MP mode for TLOU2 and its ambition kept growing, to the point where it was too big to just be a tacked on MP mode. That's when they decided to spin it off to become its own stand alone thing. That wasn't done as a decree from high above, that was the studios own ambitions letting the project grow.
2) Look at Guerrilla Games. Simon Laroche began working at Guerrilla as their Online Game Director back in Feb 2018, a full year before Jim Ryan took over as head of SIE. The live service push didn't begin until Jim Ryan took over, which means Guerrilla had been planning an online game because that's what they wanted to do. We know they're at least working on some sort of Horizon live service game, who knows what else.
3) The only other pre-existing first party studio who who has jumped into live service is London Studios with their online fantasy game. They've always been a studio who make quirky content, and this seems to be their first foray into a bigger budget AAA game. They provided some context into their decision to make this game:
"Whyte adds: "The game idea came out of an ideation process that we embarked on with the entire team. We created a high-level briefing document, but with a lot of latitude and scope within that. And the team came up with loads and loads of ideas. We got the inspiration on the process by talking to our colleagues at Guerrilla Games. We were fascinated about how they went from Killzone to Horizon: Zero Dawn, and this was the exact process they went through.
"So the team came up with a load of ideas over a period of months, and we refined them down and refined them down, until we got to a really small shortlist. Then we went out and spoke to PlayStation leadership, we spoke to other PlayStation studios… We spoke, very importantly, to our team about which one they're most passionate about. This concept scored super highly in all of those areas. We polled hundreds of gamers in the UK and US, through an anonymous poll, with some of the shortlisted ideas… This was the one that came up top."
Beyond that who else is making a live service game?
- San Diego Studio - annual MLB franchise that the studio are passionate about
- Bungie - Continuation of Destiny 2 and also making Marathon and also making Matter. Bungie are passionate about live service games
- Arrowhead - Helldivers 2 builds upon what they made with Helldivers 1 and brings it firmly into the AAA space.
- Firewalk - A brand new studio filled with ex-Bungie veterans. A live service game is a natural option for them to choose and from that we have Concord
- Haven - A brand new studio who presented 3 game ideas to SIE and SIE wanted them to do all 3 at once. Haven opted to just go with one of the three games for their first studio project, and Fairgame$ was born
- Deviation - We don't know for certain whether this game was cancelled or if it's being retooled. A studio of ex-COD developers, so again a live service game is a natural fit for them to choose.
Sony are simply giving resources, time and money to studio so they can do what they want to do. They're not forcing these studios to make these games.
I buy every game PS brings to PC to show that support even though I am double dipping I want all those games to come to PCSony is making money on those PC ports otherwise they wouldn't bother with them. So if they are making money on those games then the ports pay for themselves as well as contribute to overall well-being of PlayStation, which helps Sony to make more games. Wins all around for PlayStation.
Except PC gaming interests are important to Sony. Here's proof:
Steam Publisher: PlayStation Studios™
PlayStation Studios is home to the development of Sony Interactive Entertainment’s own outstanding and immersive games, including some of the most popular and critically acclaimed titles in entertainment history.store.steampowered.com
They are making money putting games on PC so they are not just in the business to sell consoles. If Sony believed as you believe then they would not be porting games to PC at all.
Now where Sony definitely agrees with you is on day one ports. As I have said repeatedly, I get that too, from their perspective, as well as some of the points you have made here. I'm fine with it really. I'll keep playing PS exclusives on my PS5 as well as some multiplats that I find enjoyable for trophy hunting.
