    Discussion Reuters: Sony in talks to buy media powerhouse behind 'Elden Ring', sources say

    @mod team I went back and forth with Yurinka in June, just 5 months ago saying that Sony wasn't pausing their acquisitions only for him to come into this thread and say he was right. I don't think it is an insult to say he is full of shit for doing so. His go-to method is gaslighting. Say...

    He said he applied a 4.3x premium and said it was the standard. It's not. The standard premium is 1.25x-1.5x and with the state of the global economy, my guess is things are going to lean more towards 1.25x

    I'll forgive you for leaving off prestigious developer Polyphony Digital. Not sure they incorporate the others under SIE, but it is possible. You could use them as building blocks like I mentioned with acquiring Level-5 and teaming them up with Asobi, Acquire could do something similar. I...

    Yurinka is so full of shit. He was saying as recently as Wednesday that Sony was taking a pause from acquisitions. He was convinced that they would start any acquisitions until they had sold off their financial segment. You're taking this L whether you want to or not.

    Yurinka, you're full of shit. You said Sony would not be looking to do acquisitions and I told you, you were wrong. Flat out own it. I said Sony was going to act in line with their mid range plan and you tried to push back against that. Don't be a clown and take the L. You're also wrong on...

    This is a fact. First Crunchyroll doesn't operate in Japan, so we're squarely focused on the US and in the US, there is a ton of competition from Amazon, Netflix, and Disney. What do these companies have in common? Much bigger than Sony.

    So he was involved in the purchasing of a minority stake in FromSoftware 2 years ago, but we're going to pretend like he had nothing to do with this? It's not a maybe. He's involved if not the driving force behind this.

    CDPR's stock crashed post Cyberpunk. They don't want to sell because they think they can get their stock back to where it was. For context it was at 31 USD a share and fell as low as 4.90. It's currently 9.52. It would take a lot to get their stock back up to where it was before. Probably...

    Everyone likes to discount Herman's role in things they see as positive while simultaneously blaming him for everything that they don't like... Agendas are a wicked thing.

    Kadokawa is not the biggest anime/manga owner in Japan. They're the majority shareholder. They sold a minority share to Tencent via SixJoy and Sony.

    Stop it. Look at their market cap post Elden Ring. The company's valuation is entirely built around FromSoftware. If they just wanted anime/manga there are better companies they could buy.

    There is no evidence that there were ever talks with Square Enix other than rumors. The idea that buying Bungie has any impact on another acquisition is laughable.

    This is laughable. I called Sony doing a PC launcher on GAF well before leaks from job listings. I never said anything about delisting games from Steam Somhow you think the adoption of a launcher would be determined by a handful of aged single player games? It doesn't work like that. Sony...

    Seems like a misunderstanding of the translation. I took this as they might have been in talks with others before getting into talks with Sony. Twitter Japan has been talking about Sony saving Kadokawa from Korean and Chinese investment.

    The same poster who called Sony buying Kadokawa... and called Sony creating their own PC launcher well before the PC overlay came out? How many times do I have to be right before people like you stop and think before saying stuff like this?
