Square Enix goes multiplatform, focus on quality then quantity
- Thread starter Neversummer
- Start date
My dude, folks are already playing sub native 720p Switch games with little to no anti-aliasing on their 4k TVs.
What makes you think they won't play Switch 2 games with ultra performance DLSS on?
what? i didn't ask why SE cancelled small games. do you need that i repeat my question?
how going multiplatform and developing for more platforms leads to more Quality?
And so it begins. Steam and Switch 2 will be the downfall of PlayStation.
good. i don't want to, but this is a process - Fuck around Find out.
These clowns salivate at any opportunity to paint bullshit narratives. Just ignore their lunacy.
I’m surprised Sony hasn’t pushed San Diego to work on a Sony own ip instead of solely focusing on MLB like it doesn’t has to be AAA but maybe work on spin off games using PS ip or create a new ip that’s a AA platformer or side scroller like Mario, who knows maybe San Diego makes a new ip & the characters are iconic & resonate with PS fansThey even lost their own 1st party partner MLB

Why all the doom and gloom?
What has Sony lost in this case? You think Square will release mainline FF games at the same time on PS6 as on Switch 2? Xbox sales are declining rapidly. PC will still probably get the games a few months later, because you know, piracy. So Playstation will be the best and first place to play the AAA Square Enix games.
Yes, Sony could and maybe should have bought Square. Solid IPs that can be used for Anime and TV. But seeing how much trouble Square has with their finances, maybe it was wise of Sony not go for them. Better to pay a bit of a premium and aquire them when they have their house in order.
So please, the doomers, enlighten me how this is the beginning of the end for Playstation?

If Sony doesn’t acquire Capcom or Square Enix or double/tripple down on AA smaller scope more quirky universal games like Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, Gravity Rush, Wild Arms, Potopon, Ape Escape, Little Big Planet PlayStation is cook in japan they where already cook PS was just holding on by the ledge.
Buying Paramount will only help Sony & that’s a 50/50 but acquiring Capcom, Square Enix, Kadokawa/Fromsoft, LVL5, Arc System Wotk will help PlayStation, Sony picture/animation & Sony
I know I’m surprised Sony hasn’t made a 2nd team to work on a new ip or on a spin of PS franchise instead of solely working on MLB especially now that’s 3rd party & ultimately Sony doesn’t own or makes final calls
I know you didn't ask, but their reasoning is that by cancelling all the games nobody wants and concentrating the workforce on tentpole projects, it'll mean better quality products that will attract more potential buyers.
That's what they're saying.
I don't have a magic ball in the future to see if their current stated aim is going to materialize itself in a couple years as part of their mid-term strategy.
It worked for Capcom, will it work for Square Enix? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The chance of Switch 2 not using the DLSS preset aligned with its resolution output is about the same as me winning the lottery. If you believe the contrary, you can continue believing that.
San Diego is also making the Switch and Xbox versions of the game, they're doing more work than they used to.
Where are they going to find the time to make other games when they have to pump a sports game every year on so many SKUs?
Steam is a cancer to AAA gaming
Playstation leaving it to pursue it and we can finally see what the Gaming sphere is like when its just PC centric
if this was just Square it would be fine but it is not
Sony is doing the exact same fucking PC bullshit which will ultimately lead to lower quality titles and stagnant creativity
