What happened to Sony?

Hey it's progress in my eyes if they finally start (trying and failing) to make their own money instead of being leeches.
Many of the big 3rd parties seem to have yet to realize that they don't need Sony at all, Sony needs them.

Poor bastards.

>Many of the big 3rd parties seem to have yet to realize that they don't need Sony at all, Sony needs them.
One would think after the PS3 devs would realize just how fucked sony is without them, like capcom since they have MH and not having MH was one of the many factors that killed the vita

>.hack//G.U. Last Recode
I wanted to get this but it seems it's only digital with a physical special edition only available via the Bamco online shop and fuck that

I heard that there was a controversy due to the monetization of the game

GT doesn't sell as much these days.

Many companies at large seem to be realizing this now actually. You might have specific personas within companies who express fondness for Sony, but you have NOBODY willing to stake a game's success solely on Sony anymore. The State of Play from the other week had LITERALLY nothing exclusive to PS4/5 Returnal was in the Nvidia leak so I'm counting that too lol. Even all of Square Enix's newer projects on Playstation(s) so far are at least also getting PC releases. If FF7R-2 ends up PS5 exclusive, then that's likely just a victim of impulsive years-old contracting biting them in the balls like FF16 (Falcom's Toshihiro Kondo talked last year about how timed-exclusivity contracts for Sony can run for a long time for developers).

That's selling short.

>Everything else get kneecapped or outsold on long run.

What is Sony big plan here, because even on west software sales are abysmal. Killing PS4 isn't viable either.

it's what makes them money after all

i don't know anyone who owns a ps5. i think it's a fake console i've never seen one and they are always out of stock. i know multiple people who have switches and have used one in real life, it's a real console. people used to joke about the ps3 having nogaems but now the joke is the ps5 has no console and nogames

These threads have been here since you were in elementary school, newfag

im getting so tired of hearing about elden ring, it's not even about the game anymore just people bitching about git gud or "didn't really finish the game" spam when will mods move it to /vg/

They have no plan, they've already blown their load for this year. After Stranger of Paradise is released they have nothing left for ages.

Why would they? Most threads made in excess were made by discorders.

I picked up Tokyo Ghostwire on GMG for PC and I'll probably pirate Stranger of Paradise at some point and buy The Diofield Chronicle since Triangle was so good and I want more SRPG now.
Man, feels good to not have to give a shit about owning a Gaystation 5

Making Gaas game since they don't make money from games, they make money from microtransactions and DLC see.
By contrast nintendo uses the evergreen strategy because they actually make money from their game releases.

Sony made sure the mtx shop was not up and running for all the reviews but on launch everyone saw how scummy they are .
Also a bit funny since snoys kept gloating about how gamepass will only lead to gaas games with flood of mtx and that is why they support sony because pure blood singleplayer Experiences only.

I dunno, being too optimistic

>Also a bit funny since snoys kept gloating about how gamepass will only lead to gaas games with flood of mtx and that is why they support sony because pure blood singleplayer Experiences only
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO.

Selling short indeed.

I only know big twitch number influencer who got a ps5 but never use it outside of promoted timed exlcusives.

So did no one learn anything from Avengers bombing?

10 live service games, 8 will be closed down, 1 might be a meh success and 1 might be successful

>What is Sony big plan here
