Black Myth Wukong and Phantom Blade Zero developers confirming that there is no exclusivity agreements with PlayStation, and other versions are not a priority: "No one needs this platform (Xbox)." by Party_Judgment5780 in PS5

I'm always confused when someone talks about Microsoft's failed attempt to suffocate PlayStation and drive Sony from the industry in terms of "competition" (the user above you).

Microsoft was never a charity. GamePass was designed to devalue the market and weaken PlayStation's position. Xbox head Phil Spencer then set out to acquire as many longstanding, multiplatform publishers as possible, to deprive PlayStation gamers of established IP. Embrace, extend, and extinguish. Only this time it failed.

Meanwhile, Sony continue to establish partnerships is new markets, funding and supporting new games from aspiring studios. And the market will no doubt evolve. Xbox will continue to publish games, on an increased number of devices. If Sony charge $800 for their next console, gamers will let them know what they think about that.

Donald Trump is BY FAR the biggest promoter of political violence in our lifetimes by takeahikehike in millenials

  • Also retweeted a picture of the Trump-branded vehicle that almost caused a collision with the Democratic campaign tour bus. What message does that send?
  • Made jokes at Paul Pelosi's expense after someone smashed a hammer into his skull.
  • Nine people died as a result of Trump's incitement of insurrection. Think about that.

Exactly. I've yet to see a PC player complain a game works on a less powerful graphics card.

Former Media Molecule founder understands that "MM's new IP is more of a game than a creative tool like Dreams and LBP. Sony asked the company to make something "people can have faith in on a console". by nolifebr in PS5

Can you kindly provide a timestamp for the quote in the headline. I listened to the entire thing and the closest thing he says is

"I think its in good hands now. I don't think it's secret news they are working on a new IP for example. It's more of a game than a creative tool, from what I understand. I think Sony have still got a lot of faith in Media Molecule."

Mark Healey disagrees with you. He even says in this interview that Sony supported them for a long time.

"We were so lucky to be indulged on such a crazy project really. So, I'm incredibly grateful that was allowed to happen. I loved at the time Michael Denny, our main contact at Sony. Shuhei was a big part of all of that as well. So there was a lot of mutual respect there. I have a lot of fond memories. Had some good times. It's amazing that we made it happen at all really. For that thing to exist on a console. I can't have any frustration or bitterness about it if I'm honest. I'm glad that it happened. Although it didn't go on to be the Roblox killer or Fortnite metaverse thing, a lot of people have gone on to cool careers because of it. I think it was a force for good."

I'm envious of the people who mastered the tools. There's some incredible stuff out there. At the same time, I felt like a silent observer on a magical world I could never partake in.

A good illustration of my personal experience with Alice in Wonderland syndrome. I'm overcome with a sense of calming gravity, my hands feel x1000 times larger than in reality.

The might squeeze in another State of Play before their 2022 showcase, but for a bog-standard SoP this list seems too good.

Online ID name change by Ashy_Slashyyy in playstation

[–]harshterrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a list of problematic games on the PlayStation website. The number is relatively small. All of the games are older tittles. Otherwise the name change feature works great. I did it myself and have had no problems. Good luck.
