- Thread starter Vertigo
- Start date
Herman is incompetent and should be fired as well as all of playstation america
You reading the comment wrong. It was his deal referred to your comment of House.
Could'v worded it better tbh: Jimbo fixed the loophole of PC version on GP, in 2022 they put DS on their banner of PS IPs and announced DS2 after removing it from PC GP. Now the news is DS IP is owned by Koijima, that goes beyond the PC version.
Fr. The likely chance are that pysint isn’t even exclusive nor a Sony/PS ip & actually fully multiplat using decima + using Sony funding while only getting marketing.
As I said. These decisions to release Spiderman & 3rd party ip to PC & multiplat will effect how 3rd party see PS. Say bye bye to Square Enix relationship there essentially confirmed fully multiplat now after these past moves & it will only get harder to make these kinda exclusive when 3rd party see PS games not even being exclusive to the hardware.
Sony open Pandora’s box now 3rd party partners will peer pressure Sony/PS to release game multiplat or never work a then again where if they kept it exclusive those partners wouldn’t even bat an eye
I've also been a pretty big fan of the price point of games on PC, since I usually buy several per month. The variety of games on the Steam storefront is also pretty good, if you play a lot of indies.
I wonder if Kojima will also own IP rights to the sequel, and if it will have any impact on the cross platform port timing for that game?
Every day Sony give me new reasons to not look forward PS6. Nintendo is gonna be the only relevant console maker from now on.
People should have pieced this together when Kojima announced the movie was being produced by A24 rather than PlayStation Productions and Sony Pictures.
Sony almost certainly tried and were unsuccessful in buying Kojima Productions and moving forward probably doesn't want to fit the bill for development costs.
It was always clear that Death Stranding never performed super well and it was expensive to develop. There were rumors at the time that even its development costs were driving a wedge between SIE and internal development studios. The game sold a number of units, but mostly not at full price. It drew less revenue than Bloodborne and Day's Gone and barely more than Detroit Become Human.
I was surprised when they greenlit a sequel.
It'll be interesting to see if future Kojima Productions games use decima and if they do what the arrangement would be for it i.e. free or if they'd charge them a license for it. We'll never know what the details are, but it wouldn't be surprising to see if Kojima shifts to unreal engine.

Why stoop so low when you can be above such nonsensical behaviour?
& here I thought Sony would do a collab on Helldiverse 2 that promoted & synergies Death Stranding 2 w armor, planets & cosmetics to benefit both Helldivers 2 & Death Stranding.
Herman has 0 clue what it takes to make multiplayer popular & ownership of ip is very important to do cheap collaboration. PS the last 4 years literally burn 1 billion dollars & took lost in multiple sectors lmao next is them loosing PS. What a disaster
Funny enough death stranding was at a financial report as a pillar PS franchise
this is probably Herman weak ass relationship w Kojima. He literally a danger to the PS business. Maybe this is 4D chess to get Xbox to sell back Crash & Spyro in that case I could maybe let it slide. But this is pure speculation but I’d take Crash & Spyro then death stranding especially if Kojima is gonna remain 3rd party or hard to lockdown completely
Sony should have just taken a timed exclusivity deal for Death Stranding rather than buying the IP from Kojima. Kojima is dubbed an auteur and auteur love their independence. I believed he was never going to sell his studio to anyone. Now this whole thing with the Death Stranding IP for Sony ended up being a rental all along rather than a real purchase. Also, I think we have a better chance of seeing Xbox selling Banjo back to Nintendo first before they sell Spyro/Crash to Sony.Funny enough death stranding was at a financial report as a pillar PS franchise

Funny enough I think Nintendo themselves would buy banjo, crash & spyro & completely lockdown universal/family driven platformers. PS is slowly deteriorating on front of our eyes
Playstation becoming clowns.
Even Xbox wasn't that retarded.
Incompetence just breaking through the cracks..
