Welp, guess it’s back to playing Brazilian ports of PS titles again, cause I’m not spending $400 on a 6-year-old console. It should be less than $150 used by now.
This wouldn’t be bad if we were getting deals like we were in 2008/9 with like a PS3 + 3 games and 2 controllers for £350.
Now is £550 for the console alone + £70 per year to play online + £70 for one game + £60 for a new controller + £100 for disc drive? Get all the way fucked.
It really is a shame. I regularly buy their games (without discount) within a month of PC availability, I just can’t help myself. I do so much extra work to minimise spoiler damage just because the game I want to play has a lot of people playing it.
I hate console gaming; or at least the 3 main titans. Microsoft will get my praise on this front alone. Arguably XBOX tanked their brand as a console provider when they did simultaneous PC releases for their 1st party titles, but I adore it. I’ve put in over 15 hours over the last couple of days on Forza Horizon 6.
Meanwhile I had to dance around Spider-Man 2 story/gameplay videos for over a year because I just couldn’t play it. I did this dance because I knew I would play it eventually.
So now if there’s a Sony IP I’m interested in I’ll know to either not bother or just watch story beats on YouTube.
Good job Sony; I’m never going to buy a PS, and now I can’t buy your games ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Me says i wont be buying garbo consoles when theyre trying to lock them down more than they already are couldnt care less about their games, i will watch them on youtube if i have to
PlayStation/Sony still proving they would rather screw players to rip off PlayStation owners. Guess God of War Ragnarok will be my last PS game for a while 🤷♂️
Did I enjoy the Insomniac Spider-Man games on Steam? Yes
Will I buy a playstation to play future installments? No, I’ll just go watch a letsplay or story summary on youtube if you dont want my money
Lol, sure. Voluntarily alienate an ever-growing chunk of your customers. See how that goes for ya.
death throes
Don’t play station!
Oh no…
Please. Please don’t make me address my 300 game backlog on Steam.
I’m a PC gamer so I don’t have to deal with console bullshit. Been working out great for me since 1998.
Pff, backlog… I’m rotating between the same 10-15 games for years now.
Only 300?
Some of the games in my backlog came out in 1998.
A $670 buy-in for one single player game? No thanks.
Owned a ps5 and Xbox series x.
Sold both. Don’t miss them. Won’t miss them
I’m just starting to play Subnautica. That’s how bad my backlog is. I think I will be fine.
I literally just started playing Subnautica for the first time last night as well after owning it for about 4 years.
Don’t buy second one, it has slavery EULA
I was actually going to, pls give a rundown of the eula
You can’t lawsuit them, everything you record in game their property, you can’t use vpn, you can’t share “bad” game content, can’t mod it… And etc
Thank you for the explanation!
Isn’t that from the publisher that asked AI how to about paying the developers a bonus?
Enjoy going from getting some of my money to none of it, Sony.
I thought they were making complete bank by getting rid of their exclusives and going the open platform route (which everyone complained about)?
They did so well that Xbox became an irrelevant choice between PC and Playstation.
Plus they were doing delayed PC releases, so I don’t really see how that would affect PS sales since the port would come out much later.
It’s Sony. The various divisions never know what each other is doing and the moment a new executive comes in, they charge everything to make it seem like they’re important.
