Sony hate thread

Fairgames is such a blatant copy of Hyenas that I can't imagine they'll do anything but quietly strangle it in the crib out of shame.
Although world o' clowns and whatnot, maybe whoever's in charge just thought "now we don't have to compete with them!" and is pressing on anyway. I'm leaning towards quietly canceled, though.
 
The only “draw” that modern consoles have is that they’re Mid-Tier PC’s out of the box, but that draw is countered hard by the fact they’re a closed ecosystem, and the sheer customizability PC offers - to say nothing of the library of games you get access to on PC being nigh infinite.

Valve's efforts with SteamOS and the Steam Deck are really getting close to the ideal of making PC gaming almost as approachable and hassle free as a console. The beauty of their approach is that the experience can be as casual or as in-depth as the end user may choose to make it. Some users will use the Deck as purely a console, only downloading and playing the verified titles without ever touching the desktop while other will choose to customize and install files, mods, emulators and completely transform the experience because the platform is completely open. it is the best of both worlds.

If Valve can manage one day to crack the egg of Anti-Cheats incompatibility and developers have to do literally nothing for their AC solutions to just work out of the box, not only Windows is going to be trouble, consoles like the PS5 will be too. If in the future you can just buy a Steam Deck 2 and it runs all the F2P multiplayer games with no issues plus having access to the Steam library, that's going to make it a very tempting alternative over a Sony or MS console.
 
Yeah, even if by magic, gaming on Windows became completely illegal overnight, and everyone's Windows-based computers magically switched to Linux, Windows would still be dominant and widespread in the world of business.

Though it is pretty funny how unpopular the Microsoft Store is for PC gaming, even with having Minecraft tied up in it.

Gaming is one thing, but the only people who would consider using a Steam Deck/SteamOS as their daily driver already hate Windows. It’s as much of a threat to Windows as those Android phones with Desktop Mode.

Yes of course, I meant as a gaming OS. Windows 11's growing bloat might be a point of consideration for people that want to squeeze as much performance of their PCs by using something leaner like Linux or more specialized like a SteamOS styled distro (again provided the Anti-Cheat issue for multiplayer games gets resolved.)


But for most people who daily drive Windows for a long list of other reasons besides gaming, that is not going to be an option.

No idea why they made the PS5 that fucking ugly. The PS4 wasn't perfect but a good fusion between form and functionality.
At least with the PS4 when you were done with it you could put the controller on top of it.

>Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet
-Made by Santa Monica
-Similar plot to Junji Ito’s Hellstar Remina
Christ, where's the scope for gameplay here? Oh wait, it's a Sony™. I've read Hellstar Remina, it know how it ends. If you want to do something original with the concept of total galactic destruction and despair, give it to the team who made Katamari Damacy.
I wish they went back to that sci-fi project they were working on before Sony forced them to cancel it and make God of Soy.
The lead writer (who pitched them the concept I think) worked on the Battlestar Galactica remake. At the time, one of the rumors for the cancellation was that it was too close to Mass Effect, which is retarded because I'd rather have a new sci-fi IP similar to Mass Effect than Kratos without testosterone.

Dont forget after concord, next up are Fairgame$, another woke live service garbage.

Playstation Blog: Introducing Fairgame$, a competitive heist experience coming to PS5 and PC
The editing with the "EAT THE RICH" reminds me of Hyenas from Sega/Creative Assembly.

They already had, at least with Easy Anticheat, which had native support for Windows, Linux and MacOS. Then Epic bought it, and mysteriously Linux support was instantly dropped. Hmmmm...

lol maybe on desktops, but Windows has never been dominant on the server.

I desperately wanted a bank heist game that is more technically demanding than payday. Something that lets you plan out each step of the robbery in detail, and if you mess up then you either switch to a backup plan or tough it out. Eventually it will happen, just that for now big money is betting on the racially diverse cast of hip marketable zoomers playing robin hood to stick it to The Man.
 
Business, not servers. Your water bill was most likely calculated, designed, and printed from a Windows system, while your water meter reported over a Linux-based ASIC.
Designed? Sure (though lots of design/layout stuff is still done on Macs as well). Calculated and printed? Nah. Likely a Unix or Unix-like on the backend. Or a mainframe. Those things are unironically fun machines to play with, and I highly recommend everyone try it if they possibly can.

The bill's layout was designed in Excel on a ten-year old Dell Vostro desktop that struggles to run Windows 11 off of its platter drive, and the keyboard is so worn down you can see your reflection in the oily, slick keys.
 
They loved Sony. However, they realised Sony was only using them and expected them to dance barefoot over burning coal to their tune. Sony will learn the hard way that their success only camme from 3rd parties.
They honestly think that Japanese 3rd party devs will look at the current landscape and think:
"I think I'll sell my product to like 1/6th of the available customers in Japan. Fuck that massive PC gamer audience overseas willing to pay with USD dollars while the yen is doing so poorly."
So it's highly possible that half the all time peak players are the devs themselves because they were forced to, & the testers because they were paid to.
Imagine being one of the programmers that just wants to do cool shit like the rope physics in TLOU2 and tries their best to avoid their woke colleagues but is now forced to play this garbage.
Nigger characters
Nigger music
Nigger visuals.

No way this game is getting cancelled. It's going to launch, and then crash and burn quicker than a SpaceX rocket.
They'd probably make more money cancelling the game and taking the tax write-off.
