Auditor, though pretty much everything I tweet is games related

@meetup_support I’m getting this on iOS - both iPhone and iPad. Hit OK and nothing works

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@GoodGameKofi Because it’s based on the same era as the Shogun series and the same white guy. There was controversy until they realized the basis

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@ale_xaw @GoodGameKofi The first Nioh is based on the same era covered in Shogun and the character is very loosely based on the same white guy in the show

@meetup_support I've posted 2 events and hit the announce button, and neither were announced. One posted yesterday and another posted 7 hours ago. It is only happening in one group I host in.

@JezCorden That only says PS4 so it may not be arbitrary if PS5 is skipped

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@JezCorden Yeah IDK how well Grounded/Sea of Thieves will do on PS/Switch, but Pentiment and Hi-Fi Rush are right up the PS5 and Switch consumer bases alleys

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@imranzomg Tech jobs hired excessively during the lockdown when there was increased demand due to folks being stuck at home. That increased demand ended with lockdown ending, now tech companies are doing layoffs to bring levels back to pre-lockdown norms

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@DestinLegarie Probably next gen

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@JezCorden They may not even be XSX, could be next gen, especially for Blade. And Xbox may not have decided on GamePass getting everything Xbox studios day 1 next gen yet

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@XcloudTimdog Not even a GamePass logo, I think Blade is next gen and Xbox hasn't decided if the all on GP policy will continue into next gen.

@zrd92490 @ReidGrant136345 @Zuby_Tech @remedygames If I'm not mistaken Sony had marketing agreements with Remedy for both Control and AW2

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@madcap412 It’s a lie folks, an acquisition between 2 publicly traded companies wouldn’t have 3 different sources leaking it unless they were all incredibly dumb or were deliberately seeking a little jail time

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@Tidux First Insomniac game above a 90 on Metacritic since 2004 (Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal)

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@madcap412 KOTOR is third party and was Sony saying it didn't meet quality standards. Jim Ryan is probably a root cause ND problems and showcase failures

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@DMC_Ryan He became head of PS in 2019, and much of that success was residual from Shawn Layden's tenure given games take so long to make and decisions can take years to make impact.

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@shinobi602 Seems a little quick, Hulst only left GG for head of first party 4 years ago. My first thought is Shuhei Yoshida, but his step down to indies would indicate he's moving towards retirement

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@Colteastwood Xbox has to justify expenditure against other parts of MSFT, including the way more profitable OS and Office portions - Sony is primarily PS now

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@jasonschreier That sucks, had a great base that could’ve made for a fantastic sequel

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@shinobi602 Nice being able to demonstrate what I men when I say MSFT is manipulative in their messaging. They say it’s undecided but in reality it is decided

[Lucian Gerardi @LucianSGerardi]

@PeterOvo5 How are PS fanboys review bombing it ON XBOX? I see a PC review there, though PC users are having a ton of real issues
