Mi chat: "El Monster es malo para la salud"

[Does it play? @DoesItPlay1]

We've seen Alanah Pearce' comment about Sony putting out a gagging order on its employees. And it is very telling for what is going on!

First, we can say that it checks out with what we have heard from behind the scenes. Initially there were a lot of discussions about Sony's attack on physical media. Then, several days after the announcement the chats just went quiet over night. Nobody even reacted to the topic or things remotely connected to it anymore. Like they were all struck by a giant censorship hammer.

In our opinion, this clearly shows several things.

One, Sony desperately wants to control the narrative. They anticipated the backlash. They fear the backlash.

Subsequently, two, this proves that they don't have a leg to stand on. Their justification for the move to kill physical media and push everyone into an all-digital dystopia is not based on reality. The reason they gave is bogus. We already talked about this before when we looked at the numbers and explained that the bigger picture is much more than "consumer trends".

But the most important thing is, three, that they know killing physical media will literally hurt everyone in and around the games industry in some way. EVERBODY has a good reason to be angry and concerned. Retailers have already spoken up. Developers have already spoken up (not only because the backlash harms their marketing, but because it harms motivation, discoverability and an additional stream of revenue), preservationists have spoken up, media has spoken up, gamers have spoken up.

The only thing that carries Sony is a large part of the audience that hasn't gotten the message yet. But more and more do. Once a critical mass of casual gamers understand that Sony will exploit them even more for profit in the future, that this decision will come with severe downsides even for those who didn't care before, it can turn the tide.

This message control wouldn't be necessary, if their decision would be for the better. In that case, they could easily justify it in public. But they do the opposite. That's all you need to know to continue the backlash and make as many people as you can aware of the consequences.

In response to trends in the gaming industry, as of April 1st 2027, I will stop going to Square Enix to work physically and appear digitally only.

Employees will be able to download the Tetsuya Nomura APP on their devices with my code 42069 and have me tell them what to do.

One thing should now be very clear: Ubisoft is not the biggest player pulling the strings of lobbies like ESA and VGE. Sony now has a prime interest from 2028 going forward that customers don't have the slightest say. SKG needs to succeed or we can kiss this hobby goodbye.

Viva el formato físico ✌️

No pienso comprar el GTA VI hasta que salga en físico
Llevo esperando 200 años, puedo esperar otros 50

Hay que echarle el pulso a esta vaina

Sony ends physical production in 2028.

The bomb we hoped they were smart enough to never trigger. Discoverability, dead. Ownership, dead. Legal preservation, dead. Micro publishers, dead. A billion $ market, and they just throw it away.

The wait is over!

Our video content production has finally resumed with a new format: HOW PHYSICAL MEDIA WORKS

Since many people still believe everything needs to be downloaded, we kick things off with a demo for offline firmware updates via disc: https://t.co/V6cyyJaRCP

What makes you think your digital games are safe?

Once again, Studio Canal is pulling movie licenses. Purchases to be outright erased from libraries. It's the same that happened in 2022 and during the Funimation-Crunchyroll merger. Digital is rental!

¡Buenos días de jueves! 🌅

La actualidad nos obliga a hablar de las reservas de GTAVI y la polémica decisión de Rockstar de lanzar el juego «físico» con un código en lugar de con un disco.

Hablaremos largo y tendido del asunto durante las próximas semanas, pero un juego de este calibre merecía un lanzamiento por todo lo alto con una edición física completa.

💰¿Los precios?

✅79,99€ por la edición Estándar.
✅99,99€ por la edición Ultimate.

La versión «física» estará disponible el 12 de noviembre para canjear el código y comenzar la predescarga con las plataformas digitales ese mismo día.

Ojalá Rockstar atienda a las demandas de sus usuarios y cambie de idea sobre este formato de lanzamiento. Lo vemos complicado igualmente.

More petitions to raise awareness about the bad precedent GTA VI sets are surfacing.
