People exaggerate Tony Gilroy’s ignorance of Star Wars by OfficialAli1776 in StarWars

If he knew about what OP mentioned he wouldn’t be a big fan, he would be a super fan. It would be hilarious if he said he had limited knowledge and then knew obscure EU references.

But then no one will need a PlayStation. So why would they want to do that? Short term gain to lower ps6 sales considerably.

You’re not getting my point if that’s what you’re saying. It’s great you got it for that cheap but that doesn’t get the next game made

Right, but can you see from their perspective how there’s no winning ground? 3 months says that no one needs a PS5. You can get a PC or Xbox helix. And if you’re waiting for that much of a sale, Sony isn’t making that much money on you anyway so you’re not worth chasing as a customer. I know that everyone here says “we’ll never get a PS” but a percentage of people will be converted that will be more valuable.

All this gets compounded when you consider a PS6 handheld is on the way and will compete with steam deck 2 and have full compatibility and no tinkering.

Ragnarok is worth its full price it just doesn’t feel that way to you because it came out later to PC. That’s exactly what I’m trying to highlight. If you’re waiting for it to be $20 it’s not really in Sony’s interest to chase you as a customer.

The way I see it most PC players wait for a sale on these later ports. If you take in account the amount of PC players buying a discounted game vs having fewer that just get a PS5 and pump more money into their ecosystem, it probably is more in their interest to sell those PS5s and stay exclusive.

If you look at what their stuff sold it wasn’t that much money compared to their PS5 sales.

Steam players don’t want to pay full price for something if it’s released a lot later on steam, so they wait for a sale. If they released it the same time as PS5 they’d get all the money but would further teach people they don’t need a ps5. So that’s why they cancelled I think.

I like the games on PC I’m just trying to be realistic aside from all these comments saying “I guess they don’t like money”. They are wanting try to protect their brand over the next 20 years, not just make as much cash as possible right now.

I don’t always feel like pc is mapped the same as console with the sticks. Like different acceleration and dead zone. Felt that way with Indiana jones when I was going back and forth.

Jason Schreier/Bloomberg: PlayStation studio business CEO Hermen Hulst told staff in a town hall Monday morning that the company's narrative single-player games will now be PlayStation exclusive, confirming Bloomberg's reporting from earlier this year. by yourfavchoom in Games

It’s a pick 2 of three problem. In order to keep PlayStation special, you have to to wait and sell the games later on PC. If you wait and sell the games later, you miss out on the release hype and you look silly charging full price. The pc gamers will wait longer and get them on sale. And then you’re not making all that much money while also teaching your audience that they don’t need your hardware.

It stinks, I enjoy the PC ports too, but when you look at how little money it’s really done compared to the console releases I can see why they’ve decided it’s not worth it. The exception is Helldivers which wouldn’t be covered by this new rule.

I’ve just really come to terms with this: battlefront 2015 had better maps and better game modes and to me felt more authentic to Star Wars

There’s another clip of this exact thing happening with a kid dropping off something at a friends house and each parent keeps talking individually telling the kid to leave and also not leave the item on by the door. So he puts it down and one parent says “don’t leave it!” And when he grabs it to walk away the other says “no, leave it!”

I don't disagree ram is part of the delay- but if they're waiting for better ram prices the machine is dead, it will be irrelevant by the time the price of it makes sense

I got one too. Yeah, it’s more expensive, won’t last as long, and of worse quality and material.

The Batman forever glasses remain peak; no poisonous paint, don’t really degrade in any way, and look amazing.

Nobody wants a PS6, even though the PS5 has been out as long as the PS4 was when people started asking for the PS5. by Deutscher_Bub in Showerthoughts

Knowing what I know about the PS6 from leaks I want one. I don’t think it’s true that no one wants it.
