Reminder to anyone: If you ever contemplate posting something stupid that you may regret later, ESPECIALLY ON HERE?
DON'T POST IT.
Twitter and the Internet will never forget it and they may never let you live it down. Please have some common sense, trust me.
@PlayStation Now you're basically using indie developers as shields against the criticism that you're getting because of your horrendously greedy decisions.
Go fuck yourself Sony, once more, go fuck yourself. You're scum.
@sharkflation But I digress, the fact that these people think that your art is AI is just more of an indication that the general user base of deviantART has a room temperature IQ. Whether it be just literal children using the fucking site or creepy pdfs, or literal brainlets, DA is fucked.
@sharkflation deviantART users are home to some of the most brain dead idiots I've ever seen. They've never clearly seen what AI slop actually looks like given that that shit already gets though the cracks of the "No-Ai" filter they have that doesn't even fucking work.
@PlayStation Hey Sony, how are those antitrust lawsuits being filed you coming along? Sucks, doesn't it? A lot more interesting than trying to shill this trash like jingling keys in front a bunch of toddlers, which is what you really think we are at this point.
Fuck you. Hope you go under.
PlayStation’s Disc Backlash Just Hit French Politics, Now This Is Bigger Than Console Wars
French presidential candidate @JLMelenchon has spoken out against PlayStation’s move toward a digital only future, arguing that games are not just products to be controlled by storefronts, but cultural assets that should be protected by law. His warning cuts straight into the ownership debate, no disc means no lending, no resale, and no real guarantee that players keep what they paid for if access changes later. That is why this stopped being a collector issue and became a consumer rights fight.
The funny part is Sony probably expected gamers to complain, not politicians to start framing this as a legal and cultural issue. Once governments start looking at digital ownership, the industry loses the comfort of pretending this is just “the future” and everyone should shut up and accept it. Maybe Mélenchon is chasing gamer support, sure, but the point still lands, if games are art, culture, and media, why are players getting fewer rights than they had with a plastic disc?
Is this finally the backlash that forces regulation?
If there isn't any further reason to walk away from this brand, this should be it.
Sony is so fucking arrogant that they don't need to communicate their reasoning to you on this decision. They think that you're so stupid that you'll continue to support them
Walk away.
Jason Schreier compartió nueva información sobre el futuro del formato físico en PlayStation:
▫️ Sony considera que su base de jugadores digitales ya es lo suficientemente grande como para prescindir de quienes siguen comprando juegos en formato físico.
▫️ La compañía no cambiará su modelo de distribución minorista: las tiendas seguirán vendiendo cajas, pero estas solo incluirán un código de descarga.
▫️ Actualmente, cuando Sony vende un juego físico First Party a un minorista, este obtiene alrededor del 30% del precio de venta (70 dólares). Con el formato 100% digital, Sony pasaría a quedarse con la totalidad de esos ingresos.
▫️ Como resultado, la empresa espera aumentar de forma significativa sus márgenes de beneficio.
Información adicional de otros reportes:
▫️ Sony estaría convencida de que, con el tiempo, la mayoría de los jugadores terminará aceptando la transición hacia un ecosistema 100% digital.
▫️ La compañía cree que los usuarios seguirán apoyando a PlayStation incluso sin la opción de comprar juegos físicos.
▫️ Además, consideran que no es necesario mantener una comunicación directa con los fans sobre esta decisión, ya que confían en la fortaleza de la marca y en la fidelidad de su comunidad.
So you're really not going to address the fucking backlash that we're all giving you because of your brain dead decision on nixing physical media and shutting down PSN accounts if they're being unused for 3 years? Seriously just going to completely ignore that?
Fuck you, @Sony.
@mirrorfield@FrieNDA_2 Utterly delusional if you really think that's the case. I'm deadass even suspecting you of just suffering from brain damage because no one in their right mind thinks this is even remotely grounded in reality. The industry is in shambles BECAUSE of AI and corporate greed.
@Black_D_Gamer1 I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and believing that you're just posting this sarcastically.
There's nothing quite like just living in a future where everything that we buy is just a fucking license that can be revoked any given time.
Shoot me.
@K__Med Not just in words, but also in deeds. The smartest thing anyone can do in this situation is to stop giving these assholes money.
Walk away. Anybody still buying shit from Sony, I sincerely beg all of you to walk away. You're in an abusive relationship.
