Sony hate thread

PC gods win again.

This still doesn’t fix the mess that was the PS3’s failure. Seriously, the PS3 was an development sinkhole.

I am in total disbelief the review bombing actually worked this quickly, and with Sony. wow

I think it helped a lot that the Developers themselves were extremely pissed at Sony. They were definitely rocking the boat and making it known they were going to look for better options. I wonder if they had a deal that permitted them to leave Sony as a publisher.

Is it ok to cyberbully?

You again?
Fuck off.

 

[mindlessobserver]

They will probably try again, this time with free cosmetics. Remember to team kill anyone wearing the Sony fan boy cape

While this is great news and a win for Helldivers players, the lesson Sony will take from this is that they should should never give devs an inch (if your account linking doesn't work at launch, looks like your game isn't coming out bub) and be more deceptive and in complete control of dev PR just in case they try to explain to gamers who is really to blame for all the bad decisions they are being forced to move ahead with.

Hopefully this is also a lesson to game developers that they should never do business with Sony, less they risk the chance of losing the PC Market. If I were the head of a game development company, I would not do business with Sony and would avoid them like the plague.

I get why the Soyny niggers run defense so hard for Soyny. They seethe because the PC playerbase doesn't take shit from the corpos while they sit and suck Soyny's cock and accept every bad practice and decision coming from Soyny without question while the PC playerbase actively retaliates and bullies corpos into reversing the bad decisions they make. It's all projection from the Soyny niggers because the PC community actually gets stuff done while these retards mindlessly accept everything that Sony shows them.

Valve takes something like 40% off every game sold. You needn't worry.

I think Valve deserves some credit for being willing to issue refunds after a substantial period of time over Sony’s business practices. They’re one of the only companies left that’s still run be an Internet pioneer. The fact that it’s privately held rather than publicly traded I think also has something to do with it.

Let's be honest, the reason Valve did that is because Valve also does not want people to need 3rd party accounts to play games sold on the platform.

Doesn't mean that issuing refunds so late wasn't objectively the most consumer friendly move possible. It just means that one corporation's goals aligned with defending consumer rights.

In fact, being consumer friendly has always been Valve's MO, "Piracy is always a service problem" and such.

Sony has decided to backtrack on the PSN account requirement to play Helldivers 2 on PC:

And even though the negative reviews played a part at this change of heart (?), it also goes to show how shitty Blizzard has gotten, since Overwatch 2 is still THE lowest rated game on Steam, and that game wasn't improved even with the low ratings.

Not addressing the root of the issue is just kicking the can down the road.

Many companies established in woke states such as California (think Silicon Valley) are forced to have a department for:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity,_equity,_and_inclusion

They receive grants on how they hire people based on bigoted/racist criteria instead of competency.
(Sony Interactive Entertainment HQ is in San Mateo, California.)

Also people need to be taught how to defend their rights as consumers, globohomocorpos only care about your datas and your wallets. Like crooked politicians, they will rob you of your freedom in the name of safety but the truth is they just want to exploit you like nigger cattle.

Ok, just remove the garbage anti cheat and I will buy this game.
But they'll never do that.

They're the monopoly on the handheld market, they don't NEED to do more than add an extra 5%. Considering the modern games industry releasing sub standard products at full price then going "Whoops, we're sorry" when the inevitable bugs and issues show up due to lack of QA and people still buy it. Why would they change their strategy with the "new" one?

At least steam decks are trying to shift that monopoly. I own a nintendo switch and i love the games on it but god is the console shit and limits the games on it a ton. Even then, the only reason you'd get a switch is for the exclusive games (breath of the wild, mario kart, etc.).
It also pisses me off with many companies choosing to release unpolished games, you used to have a cartridge that had the game, and it had to be PERFECT. New games shouldn't be praised for being polished, it should be a fucking standard, but thanks to the greedy retards at the top, they realized you can get money faster by releasing unfinished projects.

 

[Megatardingo]

i mean, they kind of didn't have a choice, i'd think.

You always do, be careful who you enter business with because once they fuck up you fuck up. I'm tired of treating devs like they're toddlers that daddy publishers keep leading down the wrong path, they're not fucking babies they're adults and if they decided to tie themselves to ill reputed companies when they have to do some retarded corpo choice they should also get the same facefull of dick the parent company does.

This is truly a great day to kill some bugs in defiance of Gaystation community control.

Get Fucked Sony!

 

[Mushroom King]

Yeah, I was there, I quit playing, got banned from their discord for saying the automaton broadcast was repeating "N I GG 3 R beta 1.2.4 protocol..." When you say nigger on a pozzed server, it is like the fucking Gestapo, there is a 60 second slow mode for all participants but my screen was filled with things like 'yikes MODS MODS MODS.' The reality of it is this, Arrowhead has been very abusive towards the player base. Anytime we found something cool, working as intended, then set out to enjoy it, Arrowhead would nerf it. The Railgun was humbled because people enjoyed it, then the Quasar, then the Sickle, now basically every gun in the game got a 'balance patch' which nerfed all but the cowboy pistol. It's a joke. They show me these warbonds, the first two I went, Hmm! But then they both introduced new meta and both times, they kneecapped it because the player base gravitated towards any loadout that could do a 40 minute mission in 15 minutes. So time they nerf stuff, new warbond comes out, then it gets nerfed, new warbond.. etc. Remember the BREAKER? It's been BALANCED twice. I am from an MMO background and my brain is built to detect when a company who does not respect my times patches whatever they need to in order to make the road to 150 longer, exposing you to more warbonds, it's a fuckin mess and every time I boot it, my diver has a little less vim in his step and the guns always feel like Wish.com or Temu versions they patched silently overnight so less people would riot.

Fuck em, fuck Arrowhead, fuck Sony. Steam was probably the Patrick Swazi in Dirty Dancing for consumers. No one puts 40 year old neckbeards in the corner.

And don't forget matchmaking didn't work for 5 weeks. I won't. )

 

[Look--an Alien!]

I'll rack this up as One Little Victory. Sony will try again, no doubt, but for today, this news puts a smile on my face.
