It isn't logic. It's wishful thinking.Most of the negative rumors seem to be backed by no more evidence than "PS4 was so successful, so PS5 will be a disaster".
I don't really follow the logic, but we will see.
He likes to believe he is.Ok look, is this Jason dude supposed to be someone important?
Sony is known for having good relationships with developers and helping out if possible, yet somehow they suddenly fuck all that up when they are able to just ride the wave of PS4's succes into next-gen?
Exactly. It sounds like he's shilling for Sony so he can get those freebies. If he was a real fucking journalist he'd risk angering them by trying to scoop an expose on the PS5.Article comes out saying devs are having issues with Sony about PS5. Ask a journalist to shill for you should fix that right up. Waiting for Polygon's shill article as well.

But no, like most game 'journalists' nowadays, he's being a corporate apologist.
In PS2 and early PS3 era, Sony was known for having terrible relationships with devs.
Maybe it was. Maybe the rumors are unfounded and people are making too much of a fuss.Or the first article was bullshit concern trolling / sensationalistic “reporting”? Impossible ...
It wouldn't be the first time a company failed to capitalize/build on a solid generation. Honestly, it's like the big three take it in turns to screw up.Sony is known for having good relationships with developers and helping out if possible, yet somehow they suddenly fuck all that up when they are able to just ride the wave of PS4's succes into next-gen?

Hahahaha "not as nice as it was before" gimme some of that weed you're smoking.GAFfers complaining about the messenger instead of the message are one of the reasons GAF is not as nice as it was before

They did? I usually heard the opposite: that the reason the PS2/3 were getting all those great exclusives was because Sony had earned them due to nurturing great relationships with their devs.
"The PS3 is a total disaster on so many levels, I think It's really clear that Sony lost track of what customers and what developers wanted
The golden age of Indies when they were being championed in E3.
Now, Indies are seen as shovelware, unfortunately. Such a sad thing to see unfold.
Fuck Jason. He blamed that YouTuber for reporting on the email/contact info leak on the E3 expo site.
You should come to Canada.It’s weird to see how many posters seem to have a problem with paternity leave. My wife is expecting our second any day now, and I have to take vacation days when the baby arrives so I can help around the house. Even just 1-2 weeks of paternity leave would benefit us greatly, but I’ll take what I can.
When I read “paternity leave” in the tweet, I was much more horrified at the thought of Jason being a father. That poor kid...
Don’t particularly care how happy Devs are with the PS5 equipment. It would have been actually news if they were dissatisfied.
TL;DR: smartphones and social media were a mistake.Things like this wouldn't even be necessary if the gaming community wasn't such a tender box of wet tissues and grenades all the time.
MS and Sony have to worry about narratives the way Army Core Engineers have to worry about minefields. Even if they intend to stick with their agendas, they must always avoid the appearance of being tone deaf. Unforced errors are like a noose, the community will give you all the rope you need to hang yourself.
And since there are individuals just waiting to turn the slightest misstep into a unmitigated disaster, they have to always be prepared to run counter spin before something or anything is dogpiled into a full blown conspiracy.
I contend, this is not a healthy state for them or us.

Fixed ChiefOh how nice of Jason to take care of his wife's boyfriend’s son.

Technically it will release before December, it will be somewhere between middle of October to end of November. My money is on November though. They always allow about 1 month before xmas to give time for people to buy as gift.Not launching for another 14months and to have the kits at this state already bodes well for the launch lineup. Expecting to be blown away.
He blamed a trans woman, one who actively does *real* reporting, because he got pissy that he didn't get the story first.
Mind you this is the same guy who called people pedophiles for playing Sorceress on Dragon's Dogma. Sorceress being the super big tittied adult female mage.
NotedTechnically it will release before December, it will be somewhere between middle of October to end of November. My money is on November though. They always allow about 1 month before xmas to give time for people to buy as gift.
Edit: I will also be buying the Pro version as a gift to someone very special in my life.... ME!!
Holy cow. All I really want is two weeks and I have no doubt I’ll get a job with those benefits eventually. 52 weeks... that’s insanity.You should come to Canada.
Paternity leave is like hitting the jackpot. Not only does the company have to guarantee you an equivalent role when you're back, but the new rule is you can stretch it out from 52 weeks paternity leave to 78 weeks! Ya 1.5 years.
And I don't think there is rule for when the parent comes back, so when the wife returns she can be pregnant again and announce she is going in mat leave again. And no company can fire them.
When the 52 week rule was in place, I knew some moms who were on mat leave more than at work because the second they returned, they were already pregnant and left in 5 months for another 52 weeks! Crazy shit.
Yup. And parents milk it to the bone. Companies are hamstrung by whatever the parent on leave does.Holy cow. All I really want is two weeks and I have no doubt I’ll get a job with those benefits eventually. 52 weeks... that’s insanity.
You mean Dragon’s Crown or did he do this to two separate games?
Here in Australia in a permanent full time role, 2 weeks paid paternity leave is given from birth of your child which is made mandatory by the Government to help out your wife/spouse in that crucial time as soon as the baby is born. It's a standard working condition just like sick leave or annual leave.What a fucking tool. Paternity leave seriously? Cuck indeed. Are we even sure the baby is his? Let's do that first. Who has the scoop on that?

There's a reason Gaf were called SonyGAF in the "nicer" days.
