Sony hate thread

[Buttigieg2020]

Now post how much each of them made relative to their budget, it don't matter jack shit if a game sold 100 million units if the budget for it was 1 billion

Nintendo games historically are cheap as shit in comparison to their competition, and Nintendo usually uses dev teams for multiple projects at a time.

Animal crossing made them a billion dollars in profit in a little over a month:

foreign market

This man is generally correct, but I want to highlight this.

A huge amount of the issue are browns with low IQ and even lower impulse control. I would posit that you can near-directly correlate the decline of gaming with the increase in accessibility to minority groups.

 

[Foghotten]

The game sits at 63% overall approval too.

Holy shit people aren't happy:

It was in the high 80's Thursday.

The real Helldiver was the User Score all along.

 

[dustbuster]

It's so fucking unusual for a game to have a long-term rating nearing 90%.
Feel awful for the dev team being fucked over by SOYny.

Holy shit people aren't happy:

>can't create an account from Bosnia or Albania
>can from Serbia
BASED

KOSOVO NIGGERS WRITING PLAYSTATION LIKE "NO REALLY WE'RE SERBIAN" SO THEY CAN SHOOT BUGS AGAIN

PSN only covers 69 countries.
Steam is pretty much global.

But yeah, I don't trust PSN with my account info.
They're not ethical, and I don't like padding their numbers after they declared war on every game from SEA.

Even if PSN was a good service with no issues, having to make a second account is enough of a reason to say no.
Pretty sure I had to sign in to 3 different services just to save in GTA4 back in the day.

 

[X Prime]

I feel more and more vindicated in my last Sony console being the PS2 every day.

PC gaming then:

• buy a game
• install it
• have fun

PC gaming after steam

• make a Steam account
• download steam
• buy game
• install it
• have fun

Spoiler: PC gaming now:

• make a steam account and download steam
• buy and install a game
• make a Bunghole Network account
• download the Bunghole Network app
• install Chinese spyware launcher
• sync launcher to Bunghole Network account
• wait for the servers to stop shitting themselves
• finally get in only to play at 20fps while clipping into a void
• get raped by hackers
• crash
• have your credit card information leaked after the Bunghole Network gets hacked for the 9th time this year

 

[The Last Stand]

This sets a precedent for future PS ports to PC requiring a PSN account. Do not let them.

You also forgot:

Spoiler: PC Gaming Now

Get your computer bricked by spyware that is called a "kernel anti-cheat", that doesn't even stop hackers

 

[xXx: State of the Union]

Glad I didn't jump onto the Helldivers 2 hype

You know what doesn't require a PSN log in? Infernax.

End game is to make it so they need PS+ to play games on other platforms.

PSN isn't even supported in some countries and some people can't make accounts to continue play Helldivers 2.

Also:


These corpos changed their policy very recently. They can suck a dick.

 

[Xenomorphs Are Cute]

Holy fuck what a dystopian nightmare.
I have medical conditions that cause sudden shifts in heart rate.
SNOY is going to ban other people because of my biometrics?!

Fucking hell.

This was actually the first thing that came to my head when reading about it, cause neither the patents, nor the article talk about any measures or contingencies for this exact issue.

Putting aside the virtual gestapo/thought crime enforcement thing, it's just too damn volatile from a technical standpoint. As you said, anyone with conditions like yours, or even someone with just high BP (which become a proxy to palpitation issues), or even worse, a straight-up heart attack midway through someone's gaming session, can essentially punish someone for doing nothing.

One more thing that isn't mentioned is friends. If someone is just having a healthy competition between friends, then what's exactly the contingency to that? Considering it's a machine process basically coded to act upon whatever minute thing it considers "offensive" to the player, then it will not consider factors like casual behaviour or healthy competition at all, their AI seems to be too binary to understand those nuances.

It’s shocking that Africa of all regions doesn’t have PSN.

It’s shocking that Africa of all regions doesn’t have PSN.

Is it really?

Say what you want about Africa, but they do not tolerate LGBTQ+.
