Gotta admit, even I myself is sort of surprised at how horrible this PC rollout of theirs has gone. From missing sales targets, to devaluing your IP and hardware differentiation, to bad ports damaging brand perception (of quality), to rampant piracy, hacks, working game leaks, more studio overhead etc, etc, etc...
I mean I could have imagined some of these things but not to the way it has played out. Simply a total disaster. Instead of infinite success parameters, huge sales hits, a welcoming carpet by the PC community etc... it has been everything to the opposite - a thorough thrashing. From the King of consoles to the Top bum on PC. The comedy doesn't end there....you even have Sony claiming that somehow they're Top 15 PC publisher with a measly 250m revenue, partly bought at that - heart-attack inducing.
Talk about participation trophy.
I guess if karma is a thing, you can say this is the best karma a loyal PS fan could get for this whole PC push and "strategy"... if it can be even be called a strategy - more like a flawed conceptual thought of evergreen $$$$ shrubbery.
When your PC "strategy" is so stupidly shortsighted and brain dead that basically translates to "port to Steam".... you're asking for trouble and pain!
Do remember that these fucks in charge are supposed to be "business pros". So when these "business pros" fail so badly and make so many obvious mistakes, apparent even to your average "lowly" fan on the IQ hierarchy, that should tell you a lot about their "business chops" (lack there of). I get giggles just imagining their PC strategy presentation, basically just one slide that said: "Port to Steam", "Go where the audience is" - and you know damn well for a fact it boils down to that, with that sort of language that permeates the halls of corporate bs - a language of its own, a veil to compensate for the lack of ideas, initiatives and brains.
YET you have corporate bootlickers here, who feel so lowly of themselves, of their own brain and IQ, as to idolize these business "pros" on the daily. Not only do they idolize their management but bat for them hard as if they were family members despite the fact that none of that brand defense does anything personally for them as fans and investors in PlayStation hardware. Can't fix sheep or the fanboyism disease.
Just gotta laugh at all of it. And if you're petty, rub it in.
