I know these idiots think that this will somehow mean more people will buy consoles but these days I feel it actually means less people will buy your games.

Fuck exclusives.

They lost billions with Concord & Marathon plus there’s the Steam Machine launch that gives them a bad vibe, just let them finish sinking the ship.
ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I thought Marathon was pretty popular though. Was I wrong?
warmaster@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
A flop in relation to what they spent making it.

I haven’t turned on my TV in years, so if they think I’m shelling out 500 bucks plus PSN plus the game costs, they have lost the plot. The days where consoles were basically the only way to game are long gone and have been for about a decade if not a bit longer depending on who you ask. The future is now old men, get with it or get left behind.

Oh no.
Anyways…

Was this game any good? Ghost of Tsushima seemed to remain in the zeitgeist for a year or so after release (my impression anyway). I can’t remember anything about this game after it came out.

I liked it better than Tsushima, myself. It probably didn’t catch on because it is pretty similar to its predecessor gameplay-wise.

As long as they don’t delist the ones that are already available for PC, I’m fine with this.
Like this is already a fucking stupid business decision, but if they then also decide that delisting the games they’ve already made available might get them more console sales, I’ll eat a damn shoe. I believe that will actually piss off people enough to do something.

I’m still not going back to consoles. Up to them if they want my money.
