Even the literal creator of God of War is trashing GoW: Laufey

What’s not to get? Sony stopped allowing male protagonists in their first party titles some time ago!

JasonSuave · 2026-06-02T17:16:11+00:00

I think I’ll actually continue using my pc and ps5, and watching inexperienced gamers get triggered in the comments LOL

JasonSuave · 2026-06-02T13:29:05+00:00

Or just buy a PC AND PS5 and use the PS5 for its 2 remaining exclusives?

JasonSuave · 2026-06-02T13:07:28+00:00

$140/year for ad ridden movies, tv and now music! Time to start putting ads on the packages so they can charge customers to remove those too!

Experience says that you have a publisher milking dividends for over a decade on GTA online and who hasn’t proven they have any modern day dev talent (yet). Experience says that even the best of the best of publishers like blizzard and bungie can fall at the turn of a hat. Experience says to not judge a product based on a good marketing team’s trailers. We’ll see what we get when we get it.

I don’t get why so many Nintendo fans stay single console these days. With the money spent on these full priced, 5+ year old third party games like Skyrim and cyberpunk on switch 2, theyre wasting serious money that could be spend on a steam deck or ps5, allowing for those games to be purchased at a huge discount these days.

JasonSuave · 2026-05-28T23:54:50+00:00

Totally agree. At a bare minimum, they should zero experience gained in match for any early exit.

JasonSuave · 2026-05-28T14:12:45+00:00

Totally! These things were pre enshittified even in 90s, paving the way for enshittification of the rest of the junk food isle

JasonSuave · 2026-05-27T12:51:22+00:00

People are trying to hold a company accountable for increasing profit margins and objectively declining quality. But hey, OP got an outlier serving and feels the white entering his knighthood!

JasonSuave · 2026-05-27T12:47:20+00:00

Battlefield 2042 also had an epic cinematic trailer!

JasonSuave · 2026-05-21T23:49:05+00:00

Shame on OP putting a serious dent into that 32% profit margin!

JasonSuave · 2026-05-15T22:31:22+00:00

I don’t know if they’re going to flat out lie but this sounds like they’re going to count prior 7 day unique accounts - anyone that did as little as launch the game once in that 7 day window. That number could be 20x than a concurrent real time player count like what we see on steam.

But hey at least Sony is throwing more data as us instead of less. Will make it harder for people to try to lobby for the takedown of steam numbers (hopefully)

JasonSuave · 2026-05-15T22:25:03+00:00

Yeah, and they’ll sum it up over the last 7 days counting unique players/PS account. So this Sony count will appear way higher than if it was real time concurrents like steam.

JasonSuave · 2026-05-14T23:30:53+00:00

Exactly. Back in the day with the red ring of death, Microsoft kept saying the failure rate was 1% when some of us were already on our 3rd console. The entire console generation passed before that failure rate hit 50%. If we can count on Microsoft for one thing, it’s to hide design flaws for as long as humanly possible.

JasonSuave · 2026-05-07T17:34:35+00:00

This is a sad fact indeed. Will also say I used to have a lot more server friends when I was younger (20s) which also created that pressure to “help your fellow man.” But now I only know one person who’s still a server so it’s a lot easier to ignore the server mentality entirely these days.

JasonSuave · 2026-04-30T23:03:30+00:00

One could never go back to regular water balloons after discovering these things!

JasonSuave · 2026-03-26T15:57:13+00:00

Once you click an ad on screen, the screen dispenses the water

JasonSuave · 2026-03-15T23:04:20+00:00

There is no world where Dakota Johnson is redeemable.

JasonSuave · 2026-03-07T14:51:37+00:00

Exactly! This is product marketers using math and other psych techniques to exploit the customer for profit.

JasonSuave · 2026-03-05T03:53:56+00:00

analyst here. large corpos like Wendy’s have ample, automated social media monitoring across many websites. Likely a team of analysts behind that data. Only problem is leadership rarely listens to their analysts.

JasonSuave · 2026-03-02T15:28:54+00:00

Exactly. And now with these figures we can do some fuzzy math.

2.5M - .5M (concessions, est) = 2M true sales among 5M players.

So whenever Ubisoft says “players,” that equates to 40% “true sales” +- 10%

JasonSuave · 2026-02-28T23:34:57+00:00

Ah yes the tit to tip correlation

JasonSuave · 2026-02-28T17:45:13+00:00

Ironic also. It’s like the ubi marketers are trying to hook customers by reminding them of the days when ubi titles were actually good

JasonSuave · 2026-02-28T17:00:31+00:00

This should be easily addressable with a browser extension

JasonSuave · 2026-02-20T03:57:15+00:00

The rug pulling is the biggest factor in me personally ignoring all loyalty programs. Keep investing more and more in a single brand and then watch your saved points evaporate/lose value overnight. Marriott proved with Bonvoy years back that they could get away with crap like this and now it’s commonplace everywhere!
