Sony hate thread

Bog-standard Poster said:
Sony should go full divide and have Hulst run Playstation california and deal with all of the western woke shite, then bring Playstation Japan back from the ashes to deal with all Eastern devs, even making a console suited to that market, and let the east and west fight it out.

Playsation west would be bankrupt within 12 months.

Hulst is the one who wanted the japanese studios gone.

The Japanese team could have really helped make their case by not taking a decade to make and release a buggy and broken piece of shit in TLG. Ahh well, at least they finished it.
 
Didn't sony Japan say something a few weeks ago that seemed to indicate they are starting to realize how retarded their western division is? I kind of wonder if this may be downstream of that realization.

Either way I hope the purchase fails.

Kadokawa is a soulless Japanese corpo. Its only virtue is that it's stuck in the 80s so it's fine with publishing horny shit for guys as long as it makes them money (which is why Japan is one of the few countries in the world where men actually still read fiction and the publishing industry isn't run by middle-aged women).

But it's still soulless and white piggu money from an acquisition is money that they have to do 0 work for so there's not really any incentive for them to say no.

Yeah but there are a lot of competitors also stuck in the glorious 80s. Sony gaying up Kadokawa on balance isn't going to be that big a deal.

Sony didn't even market their Lego/Horizon hybrid. Who is that even FOR?

Herman Hulst, 100%. His obsession with shilling the fuck out of Horizon is bewildering. There are so many Sony IPs that would work better as lego games and have much bigger brand recognition, like God of War.

I liked Horizon.
It didn't even get faggy until the DLC on the 2nd one.

I thought the first game was a solid 7/10 with a lot of potential but it was held back by dumb design decisions, like arbitrarily limiting how many weapons you can have equipped at once, despite the enemies being specifically designed to be fought with certain weapons.

Never played the DLCs but Forbidden West might be one of the worst sequels ever made (that or Ragnarok). It fixed the weapon issue but created the opposite problem by over-burdening the player with tonnes of useless shit and a bunch of weapons that were all basically the same thing. They also ruined the game's one USP by borking the enemy weakspot stuff and making every enemy a twitchy mess so most of the time I avoided combat unless I absolutely had to fight.

I can't comment on the story because I started skipping cutscenes by the time I reached the second major settlement, but I do remember laughing that the new villains they introduced were all Aryan ubermensch.

If I learned anything from the 80s-90s is that anything can be made kid friendly, who doesn't remember the Conan, Rambo and Robocop cartoons?

But hell, Jack and Daxter Lego then. Or something similar to what Astro did but with Lego going full member berries. But focusing everything on Horizon fucking Dawn of all things...

Disagree, a huge part of the Lego games appeal is their sense of humor and how they flip stuff like Luke Skywalker getting his hand cut off into a little Lego man pulling his hand out and throwing it away.

The one thing they definitely couldn't get away with is all the topless women, but I think there is a ton of potential in the GoW lore to tap into, although mostly in the original games and I'm guessing Sony wants to pretend they never existed now they're committed to Dad of War and his pussy son.

If Lego Dimensions isn’t the textbook definition of memberberries, I don’t know what is.

The game features characters and worlds from thirty different franchises, consisting of:

Year 1​

I don't think Lego would allow them to do God of War, they are super picky about what they will and will not work with. Not just the violence, but the sex stuff too in the early 2000s games.
