I'm not trying to convince you. Why not Just switch to another platform if you're not satisfied? I'm a core customer too. Would like to see some first party announcements but overall, i'm more than satisfied.
I already play on PC and have done so since the mid 90s. If they want to kill PlayStation then so be it, but I won't cheer it and pretend I don't see what is coming.

I'm not a hypocrite when Xbox was doing these moves I was also criticizing them and saying it would kill their console. I also never liked when PC devs like Blizzard started to focus on console, decreasing the quality of their games and focusing on the lower common denominator. PC games were not about ports of console games in the past and it was far more interesting (to this day the best stuff on PC are usually PC only or PC focused games).

PC + Nintendo seems like the way to go after this gen, best of both worlds, too bad that less and less console type AAA single player games will be made tho, but it's what people are supporting and it at least saves me $500 if not more.

Unlike Xbox, Sony actually markets their consoles, releases good first party games for the most part and doesn't tell its userbase to not buy games. PC releases played a role but it wasn't the main reason why Xbox failed.

The same people that will tell you that Sony has regressed in development will tell you that the PS4 didn't hit its stride until 2016 and that they ignore that the second half of gaming generations are almost always significantly better than the first. And that the first half of this generation has been significantly better than the first half of the PS4 generation.

Instead, they want to compare the 2nd half of the PS4 to the first half of the PS5.

The same people will ignore that Uncharted 4 came 5 years after Uncharted 3. They'll also ignore that games take longer to develop now.

Again, these people are not serious people. Any rational gamers wouldn't say half the garbage that these people say ad nauseum.
Personally, i think PS5 has better games than PS4 overall.

GT7 better than GT Sport, HFW is better than HZD, GoWR is just a little bit worse than GoW, we got one of the finest games in history - Returnal,
Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart better than Ratchet and Clank, we got fan favorite Demon's Souls, Spider Man 2 is better than Spider Man.
2nd and 3rd party exclusives is kinda better too on PS5. Helldivers 2 is kinda hot game, a lot of people loves it.

we don't have Bloodborne of PS5, but the moon is still young. Venom, Wolverine is coming.
we also will get to see how Death Stranding compares to Death Stranding 2. the same with Ghost of Tsushima.
we still need Days Gone fix...

All Sony does is tell you to not buy a PlayStation and buy a PC instead, where games will be cheaper, will run better, will have better forward compatibility, online will be free and save storage will be free.

Sony market and communication has been shit for many years, not their strength at all.

It wasn't lack of marketing that killed Xbox it was lack of quality and lack of focus.

Sony doesn't actually say anything like that in their marketing. Microsoft has been telling you for the last 8 years that you don't need an Xbox.

Run better? Half of their games had shader compilation issues at launch and don't get me started on TLOU Part 1.

You think they make bad ports on porpose? Those were just growing pains of not being used to supporting PC, Helldivers 2 runs much better on PC than on PlayStation.

You think every PC version from here on out will run without issues? Horizon 2 has performance issues with the burning shores expansion and that port launched only a couple of months ago. Helldivers 2 so far is one of the few games that runs well at launch.

how you ignored that the same studio have made The Last of Us?

Uncharted 3 2011
The Last of Us 2013 + Story DLC
Uncharted 4 2016 with development hell + big story DLC

Everyone knows that Naughty was building out a second team with the hopes of trying to do multiple games at once.

The team largely responsible for Uncharted 3 is not the same team largely responsible for TLOU

And I say hopes of trying, because most of these people were brought in on TLOU2.

We also know that ND was working on at least 3 projects in various stages of development before TLOU Online/factions was cancelled.

So yes context matters.

this completely makes no sense. look what they done.
if they had a second team, they would have released another game already but they don't.

all last Uncharted games and The Last of Us games had the same key personnel, which means they have only one team.

there is no reason to believe there is 2 teams because, TLoU team had to go to create TLoU2 while another team move from U3 to U4.
but that is not the case, all of those leads from writers to programmers and artist made all those games with some edition.

there also were rumors that a lot of staff just quit after TLoU2 because they burned from crunch.

If there ever was a second ND team since the Uncharted 3 days it was related to Factions and we all know how that turned out.

it doesn't make any historical sense. if U4 team had to move on to create another game, while TLoU moved to create TLoU2, how the first team manage to go and create a game based on the game(TLoU2)which wouldn't be released in another 3,5 years? :ROFLMAO:

Let say, U4 move to create TLoU2, so what Original team did from 2013? one DLC?

however you spin, one team had about 10 years to make no games then? while simultaneously all key personnel worked on all of those games?

People confuse the fact that different people work on different projects at different stages and think this will translate into different teams releasing multiple games. It's cope to not deal with the reality that ND will most likely release a single new game this entire gen if it doesn't get delayed into a crossgen game.

TLoU Pt 2 was released 4 years ago and we are yet to see a single frame or even know the title of their next game.

Hardly any Sony internal studio has even shown a new PS5 only game. Outside of Insomniac, we got Returnal by a team that wasn't even owned by Sony at the time and two rameks (TLoU Pt 1 and Demon's Souls).

GT7, GoW Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West were all PS4 games that got delayed into becoming crossgen games.

i think, people just rushing to name what studio do as project while said project didn't even lift up from the ground. we are assigning those project to the number as teams creating it.

It's a way to inflate the list of all the upcoming games that never get announced. I'm completely done with it, it has been going on since before this gen even started.

Ever since Sony showed up the last wave of PS4 only games they were just never the same.

Is this sarcasm? Helldivers had severe server issues where you couldn't even start the game (which in turn led to the PSN linking outrage, as they disabled the enforcement because of them), then there were (and are) random crashes, visual bugs and the list of "known bugs which will not be fixed in this patch" keeps increasing. On both platforms.

If you fund the development of a game it’s not anti-consumer to keep it exclusive.

I don't even like PC gaming but ok. I'm here because i'm a Playstation fan and i thought this was a "safer" place but it seems like the overreactions here are worse than on the other two forums, lol.

The guy has worst takes ever and he is never right. Ignore him.
He is always shilling for Microsoft as a corporation and usually agreeing with their decisions.

Few vids back he said consoles have no reason to exist and are 500$ 30fps shitboxes. That’s exactly what he said. At the same time he just played stellar blade few days back. He is a clown.

I play on console because I like to do so. There are more important things to me than raw ability to crank performance. I like that on console, the game just works and doesn’t require me to sacrifice a small child on pcgamingwiki every time I want to play a game.
Everything just works as developer intended , usually 60 or 30fps modes, controller and headset integration , 3d audio, better haptics even than wired on pc, screenshot button on controller which is very important to me.
And games don’t crash. And physical discs.

I am long past pettiness of hardcoring for 7 more fps and ultra shadows for 3000$. In fact now I realise chasing that for years was foolish. Yeah let’s play the same game years later on a 3000$ pc and with bugs. No.
