Expanded hot spring content with new MC
9/10
Maybe in the days where every conference had trailers for 3-4 AAA games this one wouldn't stack up but we've barely seen a game from Sony this gen
Also still have the DS2 content to come
Fat Princess not being in is not a surprise and it sure as hell won't be a DLC. Why the hell it was so heavily featured in PlayStation All Stars will never make sense to me. It wasnt even a good game, a first party developer or a good character. Maybe the director had a fetish
Sony won't learn a lesson
Day one on PC if their PC sales go from 100k to 200k and PS5 from 3million to 2.9million then they will consider PC a success
The bar is incredibly low for PC
Easy to make something seem profitable when you ignore the other 99% of the development cost

Nintendo as well would start losing sales if they ported their games to PC
Do you understand what an average is? Pulling $200 LTV out of your ass is meaningless
That LTV is an average across the userbase. It is a number provided by Sony. This already accounts for the existence of used games markets and discounts
The scenario I gave is less than 5% of the userbase, and even that has a massive impact on the bottom line that cannot be made up on software sales. They have released their biggest ever games on Steam and all of them combined haven't made what Horizon or Uncharted 4 alone made on PS4
It is not...
The LTV of a PS5 user is $622
There's two ways you can look at that number
Let's say by the end of the generation, Sony sells 5 million less consoles because those users left to PC. That's $3.1 billion dollars. To cover that lost revenue from PC Sony would need to sell 74 million units of full...
