In their defense, sometimes it really is the IP specifically. Just look at Pokemon.

Pokemon has the advantage of having been a global phenomenon that was mentally imprinted in the psyche of an entire generation. There is an enormous amount of retarded people that think having an obsession over a hobby is a viable substitute for a personality. Their entire sense of self is defined by Pokemon so they internalize people complaining about Pokemon as people complaining about them, it's why they get so emotionally devastated over people complaining about the newest Pokemon games. Unsurprisingly a lot of the Pokemon fanatics are often colossal faggots that post a fag flag on their bio and make it their entire personality, so all of this behavior makes a lot more sense when you realize it's just the same psychosis. I've stopped hoping that the Pokemon games would ever get better. At this point I'm hoping the games keep getting worse, it's what they deserve.

Something something magic dirt but this time it’s sony and microsoft thinking that the money lies in the IP itself and not the team that made it.

Bioware could make a new KOTOR game and while there may be some interest because of the Star Wars IP, there's a very strong chance that game will flop like Ubisoft's Star Wars Outlaws. Larian Studios could make a new KOTOR game and there's a very strong chance that game breaks records. All these "big name studios" have been Ship of Theseus'd to the point where all the talented people that made that place a "big name studio" have been replaced by actual retards that don't know shit. Most of the time the real goldmine in the industry is the right people making the game while IPs are just force amplifiers.

Titan IPs like Pokemon are exceptions where their core audience doesn't care about the quality of the product anymore, they just want the product.
 
I really really despise Matt Piscatella (and by extension the company Circana) that everyone always cites for numbers. He's a hack that loves to give out fantastical statements like "50% of players are women" without really diving into the nitty gritty (I.E. majority of them are casual players, and there is a massive difference between a 12-hours-a-day nerd vs. someone who plays Candy Crush 30 minutes a week).
But Circana sell this garbage to publishers who then use this junk data to convince themselves that it would be a good idea to have a lesbian protagonist set in feudal japan. Total rubbish.

The metric for who qualifies as a "gamer" to pad the numbers of these propaganda surveys and reports is even worse. According to the ESA you only need to play one hour a week to meet the requirement. It is all manipulated data to push a specific gender agenda.

I don't think this data is used to appeal to whimminz de facto, only a justification for the developers' Phil Fish tier attitude and hatred for the medium they work with. (since I do not think the tranny looking characters and lesbian romances appeal that much to them),They could push their agenda in games in a subtle way if they did it with restraint, or better, make a fucking good game. If they did most of the public would ignore it and only the biggest culture war spergs would cry at the void.

They put women protagonists for the feminazis, tranny-looking characters are there for ugly chicks to not complain about the so-called "unrealistic body standards" and the lesbian romances are there for the Queer brownie points.

My point is that the developers already are "true believers" who despise gamers, are high off their own farts and would do it without this minority complaining or even any ESG grants, since in gaming's case the type of faggotry seems to appeal mainly to the developers' deranged minds, not even for demographics like fujoshis.

That is true but I am saying what mindsets lead to each decision: Feminist devs wanted women protagonists, body positivity activist devs did not want to feel lesser so they demanded the protagonists be uglyfied and the Queer activist devs wanted homosexual relationships which, due to having women as protagonists, it meant lesbian romances. And thus we end up with ugly lesbian protagonists.

The problem is Nintendo is extremely litigious against anyone who dares having a better ideas on how to make fun games

fix'd. Nintendo just despises and detests anything fan-related or fan-adjacent in Palworld's case. Their actions clearly state they want a monopoly on anything that made them popular to begin with, hence why they are also the most rabid company to go after rom sites.

They should purchase an in-development digimon game and rebrand it with pokemon so we can all have the pleasure of watching pokemon fans viciously defend it.
The next pokemon game should start at $120 for this reason as well.

there's literally dozens of games that are rebranded nintendo games after nintendo rejected them or had a falling out with the developer. nintendo fans give ZERO fucks about the game once the nintendo brands are off them
and games that were something else but then had nintendo branding slapped on them sell millions
Fluff's Epic Yarn would have sold like shit, making it Kirby's Epic yarn probably made it sell 100x more

The worst part is how defensive the 40+ manchildren get about it

Apparently leaked files from 2022 showed Sony working on a launcher.
Remember they changed hardware sales KPI to MAU.

Slag Nintendo off all you want, and I will because they suck, but they give their audience what they want. Outside of them, consoles are dead.

An company launching an old school console now would sweep Xbox and Playstation out of the industry.
 
Does anyone think that the new ND game will actually sell well? It just looks like the same guardians of the galaxy retro futuristic aesthetic thats been used to death for the past decade. The sony faithful will probably buy it but I dont really see it gaining as big of an audience as tlou and uncharted. I'm hoping there's some type of leftover concord easter egg they were hoping to use as cross promotion lol

Will sony learn anything from astrobots success? If you let talented people make an actual game not just a walking simulator with combat that was dated in 2015 it will sell well and have critical acclaim? I haven't played astrobot the aesthetic bores me just constantly "hey remember all these cool games we let die and or shut down their studios, weren't they fun"
