I know yes. I was member here long before that episode on GAF where everyone seemingly wanting to nuke their account.It didn't use to be this way which sucks.
I recall Gaf having a rather stringent standard for insiders and leaks. So whenever a leak or rumor thread was posted it was actually exciting as it held some sort of credibility even if a few details weren't exactly accurate.
I guess after the 2017 exodus that standard plummeted idk.
I mean, would it be any different if they had a PS5 or X1X? There’s no games for these $500+ consoles.So many random rumors flying around this past month. Seems like people really can't find a next gen system or gpu for a reasonable price so they find other ways to fill their time.
I'm quite busy with my PS5.I mean, would it be any different if they had a PS5 or X1X? There’s no games for these $500+ consoles.

that fromsoft (who did also exclusives for ms) don't respect that company and "so highly stupid it can only come out of a fanboy's mouthAnd these claims are based upon... what? You don't know how Miyazaki runs his company or what things does he take in consideration and value the most when it comes to finding the ideal partner for a new game project.
So going around the place, yelling that money is the only thing that matters, it's stupid because you clearly don't know any of that. Those are just your assumptions.
You are not a man of cultureAnother collaboration? What’s the other Microsoft From exclusive?
This I know it is not true.fromsoft don't give a shit about fanboyism or communities..they care about money. If google would pay them "enough" they would release a exclusive on stadia. It's all about how much money they have been proposed
btw i hope is not true and that ms spend money in better genres
I'm not staying that supporter are not important I was assimilating platforms under the word "communities". Fromsoft would release if payed enough games under every platformThis I know it is not true.
The "souls" community is very important to FromSoftware and they are very aware of its importance.
FromSoftware frequently gets player feedback from communities like Fextralife and their relationship with the souls communities and Youtubers was the major clash with Activision when doing Sekiro.
The main reason they tried Activision was to get the "Sony" experience without being limited to one platform.I'm not staying that supporter are not important I was assimilating platforms under the word "communities". Fromsoft would release if payed enough games under every platform
I just said that imagining fromsoft snubbing microsoft just because in some fanboy's head they have little respect for their company It's stupid and ridiculous especially when they've released more than a couple of Xbox exclusives in the past.The main reason they tried Activision was to get the "Sony" experience without being limited to one platform.
Namco couldn't provide the same level of support (funding, localization, QA, etc).
Dark Souls 3 sold almost 3x as many physical copies on PS4 than Xbox One in UK
PS4 accounts for 71% of physical launch week sales.www.videogamer.com
This was back in 2016, when physical was more representative (Not PC obviously).... but PlayStation sells by far the most Souls / From games. It's not even close.... PS sells several times more than either PC or Xbox.
From knows where its bread is buttered.
PC may have a healthy Souls community but it's nothing near the size of even the Bloodborne community alone on PS, still highly active nearly 6 years later.
I think it was something in the lines of a futuristic soulslike without character creation and slighly more open areas than Sekiro, with Turn 10 (Forza Motorsport) supporting From Software on the title's development. The reddit post also said that Elden Ring had just been delayed internally until 2022.So what did it say?
Thanks, yeah that sounds like bs.I think it was something in the lines of a futuristic soulslike without character creation and slighly more open areas than Sekiro, with Turn 10 (Forza Motorsport) supporting From Software on the title's development. The reddit post also said that Elden Ring had just been delayed internally until 2022.
100% bullshit, if you ask me.
that doesn’t really match the “they can do whatever they want” comment.Because they might not deem it worth their time in the long run. Just because you're wealthy doesn't mean you want to waste money. They have bankrolled 2 games from Remedy, Mass Effect, and plenty others including From Software games, yet people think this rumor is far fetched?
Do you have some numbers to back that up? From what I remember Bandai Namco claimed that PC accounted for 40% of sales a few years ago. If that's still true, then it's impossible for the series to have sold "several times more" on Playstation.This was back in 2016, when physical was more representative (Not PC obviously).... but PlayStation sells by far the most Souls / From games. It's not even close.... PS sells several times more than either PC or Xbox.
Elden Ring isn't coming out.Sounds nice but I’m not going to believe in a rumor about a game that’s several years away potentially.
Elden Ring being delayed to 2022 is much more believable.

Two sony insiders have claimed that sony is again teaming up with From and From's parent company forms a gaming alliance with sony but their next game is an xbox exclusive because reasons.Aint fromsoftware parent company formed alliance with sony? Or is that a different developer?
Not sure about DS3 selling as much on PC as PS4 though.Elden Ring isn't coming out.
DarkSouls sells just as much on PC as on Playstation.
DS1 sold more on PC than PS3.
I dont think its happening but im not sure why people think its impossible when they have made 4 xbox exclusives lmao
Would you believe Bethesda acquisition if it was a rumour? No you wouldn't. With Microsoft's pocket change anything could happenAnother rumor pulled out of someone's ass

That 40% figure was from 2015, the series went from 10 million back then to nearly 30 million now.Do you have some numbers to back that up? From what I remember Bandai Namco claimed that PC accounted for 40% of sales a few years ago. If that's still true, then it's impossible for the series to have sold "several times more" on Playstation.
Dark Souls series had only sold 10 million up to 2015, which is where most of you are getting the outdated figures.Elden Ring isn't coming out.
DarkSouls sells just as much on PC as on Playstation.
DS1 sold more on PC than PS3.
the problem is that if a dev he chooses to release a game only on nextgen using the new hardware unfortunately he must also accept that the user base is still relatively small. and here the certainty of the user base on the pc could come into playThat 40% figure was from 2015, the series went from 10 million back then to nearly 30 million now.
So that 40% is pretty irrelevant.
PlayStation sells a lot more than PC in the Souls games.
Well, that is true!the problem is that if a dev he chooses to release a game only on nextgen using the new hardware unfortunately he must also accept that the user base is still relatively small. and here the certainty of the user base on the pc could come into play
