PlayStation Studios |OT14| Let's be honest: |OT13| could have been a lot smoother

I share the sentiment. After all, there's a reason why Sony was rumored to be after a similar acquisition: Zenimax was a relevant publisher with lots of talented artirts.
What's transpired here doesn't affect me much personally because I tend to buy few software and always gravitate to the kind of experience that's only available on PS (not out of allegiance, but because it's the tone and style of adventure that I'm able to enjoy after so many years playing). I'll miss Arkane, an studio I thought it was a good fit for PlayStation series a few times, as I'll miss MachineGames and its combination of narrative and fast action. Said that, it won't change in any drastic way how I consume video games (though I understand it'll do for others who enjoyed those IPs more than I did).
In the future, I can only hope they'll anticipate and adjust. I don't expect big acquisitions like many here; I'm not sure if I want them either. I think it's time for new IPs from the already existing PlayStation studios, not outbidding the company that can't be beaten with money. Now there's a hole in the FPS genre, so let's see one of their studios do an FPS; there's a hole as you say with immersive sims (until Deus Ex or Ken Levine come back from wherever they are), let's put someone to work there; if a studio is needed for that purpose, buy one, but do it smartly, at a fair price, because you're David fighting against Goliath, and there's no point in trying to reenact the tale here, it's never going to work. That's what I hope for; who knows what they'll do? I'm sure releasing on PC some big hitters would be far less troubling than exploring all these venues.
Successfully ordered both Ps5 physical and Series X so I'm just waiting for November.
First Time I have owned both New consoles at launch.
Do we have any word on the length of miles morales yet? The gameplay looks much improved
Lost legacy is the best Game in the series because they got to put the best ideas close to each other with no bloat so I am expecting big things from Miles.

He's not the Vice President of the entire company. He's one of the 10 Senior Executive Vice Presidents.
a little bit far but you can always do the famous "boss run" in which you just ignore every enemy on the way and run straight to the boss.
play it and fall in love :b
also in my post i meant mostly, not mainly LMAO.
Well, if they rushed the preorders because the buyout leaked they didnt know about it.
I'm against a hive mind.
I also think there is no hive mind in this thread, i was accused of jimbo dissing, and would get accused again of that.
But that doesn't mean that there is a hive mind.
If you aren't a visitor and are interested in the topic of that OT that is playstation studios, then i surely didn't meant to call you out.
But i still don't feel the need to have a discussion about gamepass in the PS studios thread.
Sega stuff is just wishfull thinking. They are a public company. This would be out for a while.
But yes Microsoft if wants can buy easily 4-5 more publishers besides Activision and ea and they love a monopoly.
Do you serious believe that?
They rush the pre orders in order to get ahead of Microsoft ones, not because of a publisher buyout
I reckon it will be worth it. I am just going to go PC, but I am struggling to picture what this thing will look like on current gen and even mid gen refreshes. It looks considerably better than Witcher 3.
I answered to the post saying Shinobi said so.

Is this based on that conspiracy thread? Also, Playstation will be alright, they have a bunch of +10M seller IPs, and some of the best studios in the industry. Nintendo coasts with it's first party. There's no reason why Sony can't cultivate it's studios to that level.
Besides, I don't get where this idea that Sony are some fragile/broke minnows comes from. They can flex the financial muscle if needed to, and gaming means more to them that it does to Microsoft corp, which is important to remember.
Yep I agree. their games hammer consoles, so def why Im waiting for next gen. they def dev with PC in mind and then down port hence exactly what happens on consoles at times.
No, Shinobi didnt say that.
He said that the buyout was leaked, just not to the public. the other part is you reaching.
Imma cry if anyone else starts talking about MS/SEGA in this thread
Good name change.
Factions is coming.

That's a dumb name. They should've called it Fungus Day.
Or CorDayceps.
Totally, makes sense to change the name and sadly I'm expecting Factions as well lol (we're not gonna get it)
I just don't know how anyone wasn't prepared to preorder immediately after the event on Wednesday. As soon as they announced the event on Saturday pretty much my entire friend group got ready to preorder.
New thread smell....mmmmm.
Nice OT, JuanLatino (as usual).
I didn't even get a chance to vote on the thread topic this time. Oh, well. It's not like my choice ever wins anyways.

I can't think a single game coming out in the entire first year that I would want to buy. Why preorder a console that'll sit around doing fuck all until FFXVI maybe comes out in 2022 if not later?
Yes. Xbox is PSG, PS is Bayern. We know who will win the gen in the end 😉
Even better, I really need to try it. With it coming to PS5 via the Ps+ collection I'll probably try it one day on PS5. Hopefully I'll people will still be playing it online by then.
I just tested Minecraft VR:
First i got a black screen because i had supersampling turned on. Had to unplug the console.
Then i had to disconnect the move controllers to be able to go past the first screen (the game didn't register the square button with the move controllers turned on).
And last but not least, i was unable to play in immersive mode until i mapped the promted button in the game options.
What a goddamn mess.
EDIT: On the bright side, there is a wheel camera option similar to flick stick. That is cool.

Well, it is a big get for Xbox studios.
The good thing is exclusives aren't "anti-consumer" anymore.
Well reread, was a supposition of the poster. Still, perfectly feasible and would explain the preorder mess.
Very important to get registered.
It's always nice to see them involved. :)
I hope we don't have to wait long on Last of us 2 Upgrade
That game might be Top 10 all-time for Me

Obviously I'm talking about people who enjoy PS games and intended to preorder anyway. Those people should have been ready to go right when the event ended.
Yeah, native 4K for TLoU II is maybe not attainable easily, but 1440p on Pro was already quite impressive on a big 4K TV so I don't care. But 60 FPS? Please. At least it will be a thing on the MP mode like they did with Uncharted 4.
I think we see TLOU Remastered this week on a PS Blog BC update and TLOU2 PS5 on Saturday via Naughty Dog. And 4k60fps footage of Factions on PS5 (but it'll 60fps on PS4 too).
I hope I won't have to pay for the TLOU2 part 2 PS5 patch.... Spidey scared me... I won't even buy GoT until I know for sure what happens...
Honestly I don't need native 4K (the game already looks fantastic on a 4K TV) but 60fps would be awesome.
Sometimes I randomly search "Clap Hanz" or go look at their twitter page, despite not understanding japanese, to see if there's anything PS5 related to them and it's always the same dumb Everybody's Golf VR retweets. I hope they're cooking up something for PS5. one of my favorite devs.
Actually, I just read something about them trademarking "Clap Hanz Golf" recently. I hope they're not stepping away from Sony. I still hold hope for a Everybody's Tennis sequel. Best arcade Tennis game ever made.

That wouldn't be a good idea to talk about the first two points, it would just add confusion if TLOU/2 had this kind of upgrade and Sony didn't talk about others first party yet imo
But that's something else. You didn't want (or wasn't convinced) to pre-order, while he's talking about people who did want to.
In any case, I think it's a case-by-case scenario. Perhaps in Europe was easier if you were ready that day. Most reports about problems pre-ordering seem to come from USA.
both PS5 and the ND Engine are more than capable of running TLOU2 at native 4k and 60fps.
