Where are all the articles for the obvious shit I’ve said? I may not have a lot of money, but I can point out the obvious just fine.
Too bad Sony’s entire strategy relies on exclusive games to sell their consoles (and not just funding new games, but specifically paying to NOT develop games on other platforms). As long as that happens exclusivity will always exist.
yeah, exclusives are bad for games and bad for gamers, but they are the only thing that sells consoles.
Consoles also fund exclusives more while expecting lower profits with better quality. Playstation is probably the best example of this.
I’ve been wanting to play horizon forbidden west on PC and it’s finally coming out soon after all whole freaking 2 years which is ridiculous. Sony is charging full price too for a 2-year-old game which is also ridiculous. The funny thing is I have a PS4 and I could have bought the game and played it by now but it’s the principal. So I’ll just wait for it to release on PC and then wait another year or two until the price is about $15 and then I’ll buy it.
Patient gamer mindset is the way. Yes you may not be in apart of the current discussion, but I find that discourse around games isn’t tempered until several months after release anyways. The older I’ve gotten, the more patient I’ve become when it comes to buying “new” games. I’m perpetually “behind” anyways. I’ve only made two exceptions this year with Helldivers 2 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Everything else can wait for that sweet deep deep sale price baby.
