I’m proven right once again. From highly loved exclusive game just like Returnal to laughing stock all because PC players can’t play it properly on their 1,000 different configurations.
Loved amongst the PS fanbase. The wider gaming society doesn't hold these to the special degree they do.

I will save my final thoughts for Jim Ryan until after the ABK acquisition is decided. While they proceed to get 3rd party games swiped up from under them through acquisitions, instead of protecting the high profile exclusives that the platform has he's continuing to give them away for free to get cracked Day 1 and further damage the brand.

Where it’s at.
Someone on the GAF thread talking about the port made a great point.

PC gamers love to talk about how everything better on PC is due to the hardware, but whenever a PC port falls short, it’s the one thing they never blame.

Brute-force, general-purpose PCs have fallen behind bespoke console hardware again, and that is the reason for poorly-performing PC ports from console.

We’ve gone back to the 90s, folks!

From getting us Street Fighter V exclusive and other exclusive deals during Xbox One's funeral to sabotaging PC ports.

Adam Boyes will forever be a dear PlayStation VIP. Delivering once again.


"The definitive version for a day-one crack" they said.

No matter, I'm sure it will all end well. We all know with prior Bethesda games that the PC community can assemble a community QA and Patch team organically to save this port.

Facts, that is why I buy consoles and I want Pro consoles.... consoles are DEDICATED gaming devices, unlike PC's which are just office work-stations adapted to be able to play games. Just because it costed more to adapt that machine to play games adequately doesn't mean it is better.....and it certainly isn't more efficient in any way.

If you don't support dedicated gaming hardware, can you really say that you are a true gamer? I guess you could but I'd still look at you funny.

@anonpuffs I'm here now!

I find the whole port to be a massive insult... it's already been cracked and pirated hundreds of thousands of times, possibly millions. Devaluing the game completely.

They are charging 70 euro on steam but you can get it under 40 euro on CDKeys.....

Meanwhile there is a sale on PSN and they are still asking 60, when PC gamers are pirating this right now..... or getting for under 40 as mentioned.
Jim and Hermen need a wake up call. You'd think Microsoft already gave them one...but they still are not aware of what they are doing....

Another PC port that'll flop
Hahaha it's what the executives deserve! More bad press and more pirated sales from people who could've been persuaded to buy a PS5 in the future. It's MARKETING's job to use exclusives to get people to buy a PS5, Jim Ryan giving them away to be pirated runs opposite of that goal. He's is trying to be the next Phil Spencer, which is not a good thing. Making Xbox games available everywhere is the reason Xbox hardware sales are practically non existent this gen.

I'm gonna say that the people who pirate games would never buy a console anyway...but they do talk to people about the games they play, and those people might. I don't think Naughty Dog should be doing pc ports on their own, it takes away valuable resources from making more console games. Leave the porting to nixxes.
