That's...Not the issue with that tweet.I can't believe this guy is a CEO/game director
Based on this maybe that's why Sony has all the third part marketing deals. They may look better on Xbox one Scorpio but cheap bundles will move like crazy this holiday. It's the only way to compete until ps5.
I'm thinking MS will allow Scorpio-only games to happen about 12-18 months after the console's launch. They'll kill the Xbox One and S off softly.

Anyways, it's too bad because Thomas is a good dude who was fairly involved on this forum in around Ori's launch, providing helpful clarification, insight, etc. I doubt he comes around more after this honestly.
You might disagree with his assessment but the attacks on his character are uncalled for.
Yea let's ruin him!!
Bullshit. Thomas deserves to have his credibility /character questioned because of his post and lack of follow up to said post.
How many other CEO's / game directors / devs do you see on social media/forums shitting on the competition while praising the console that they work on exclusively ?
No ones saying that

You're talking about this guy's character, and your tag says you'd rather have a dildo. Cool
But he posted here, on GAF.Full blown next generation console?
Yeah, No.
I'm going to believe what Eurogamer / Digital Foundry is saying about Scorpio 99.9% over a random developer comment posted on a questionable site.
...what exactly is wrong with dildos now? What the hell?

The question is how did he/she get that tag? It speaks volumes as to his/her character.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and what if he may even be right? The fact that Ori isn't on Playstation doesn't have any bearing on this, since it seems it's true anyway(the Scorpio being more powerful than Pro).
I like dildo's rammed up my ass
fight me nerd
Sorry if I offended anybody, wasn't my intention!

Thank you
I really shouldn't post in this thread anymore and I definitely should have picked my wording more carefully... You never quite know which sentence a journalist might pick up on and might turn into a saucy headline that might infuriate fans of some platform.
This is the second time already that I took part in some discussion on GAF only to then see something I thought was a somewhat innocent comment (again, calling a platform half-assed definitely wasn't the nicest way of putting things, I know. I'm not a native English speaker and sometimes my wording can come off as a bit rude) to blow up in my face after the press picked up on it. I'm just a dev who loves games and take part in these passionate discussions

Thomas, I hope this makes you feel better. The guy questioning your character is in fucking 6th grade and has access to the internet. Piece of shit troll.
Nobody is saying that he is wrong with his comment about the Scorpio being a new generation or more powerful but he had no need in calling the competition half-assed when they could think of buying titles from them in the future. Hopefully for him Scorpio is a hit and sell just as much as Xbone or even more, would be tragic if they have to develop games for a Half-assed console in the future.
the irony in these 3 post is Delicious

You shouldn't worry what GAF thinks about your words or intentions. This place has gone downhill a lot, lots of hyperbole and lack of forethought, there's some who don't even give a shit about how hurtful their comments are. And rarely have I seen this behaviour met with a ban, the fact that they even think it's okay to voice their insults is surprising, let alone be permitted to do so.Thank you

Why is it half-assed anyway? Because one can theoretically do native 4K much more reliably? Because checkerboard 4K is not real 4K?Maybe in the future they will learn not to release half-assed consoles?

Really?
Well the only thing half-assed I've seen this generation are the Xbone sales, well not even half at this point, even less than that if you compare them to the ps4.
Awww shit, we got some sick console burns up in here!!
That is a dead dream .
Also sure MS and Sony have more to worry about than that .
Full blown next generation console?
Yeah, No.

You talkin shit about gaf? You're a superstar here.
I think the attacks on his character are fair. He doesn't sound professional at all even if what he's saying is eventually found to be true. Bashing the competition even if it is a rival looks bad and there's a reason other devs don't do it. He comes across as a console wars fanboy.
But he posted here, on GAF.
An explanation or expansion on those thoughts are not going to happen, despite multiple requests.I'd still like to know why Thomas believes the PS4 Pro is half-assed and the Scorpio is next-gen. What is the distinction between the two consoles where one can be considered next-gen and the other not? He seems pretty open about defending the idea that the Scorpio is next-gen, but so far, I don't think he's addressed why he thinks the PS4 Pro is different, and not next-gen.

Are you confused by the discussion?Lol I would also want to naively see a decent dude get dog piled on by the vocal part of gaming side and in trouble by Microsoft for talking about something nobody has given any info about at all.
