@GiveMeBanHammer Still find it crazy that they bought blue point on of the best remaster maker to never remaster a game after buying them and make them work on some live service shit and shut them down.
Harsh reminder:
Shuhei Yoshida, the previous Head of Playstation, cared a lot about the customer. He was the one who made sure the PS4 had physical shareable discs that you could lend to friends or buy/sell used.
Then one day, the then President and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment Jim Ryan kicked Shuhei Yoshida out of the position of Head of PlayStation in 2019 because Yoshida disagreed with his direction for the company.
In hindsight, Jim Ryan’s “direction” became Playstation’s obsession with live service. Yoshida presumably told Ryan that it was a bad idea, and turns out, it was.
With Shuhei Yoshida gone, Hermen Hulst took his place.
After that, Playstation changed - the gutting of Sony Japan Studios in 2021, censorship of Japanese games ramped up, the live service, and the increase in consumer-hostile decisions such as PSN+ price hikes, removing games and movies from your library…
And now the decision to abandon physical discs by 2028.
When you look back at what made Playstation start to rot, it always started when Sony Interactive Entertainment moved its operations to California…and having leadership who want to do everything in their power to get rid of what made Playstation special.
You will never get another Shadow of the Colossus, another Bloodborne or a Gravity Rush - and you have people like Jim Ryan and Hermen Hulst to thank for it.
@ChanTheManGuy@kangminlee I some what agree that the guy is dum to approach the police officer, put can we agree she had no awareness of her surroundings... like if it was the shooter that actually got to her she would have been dead, how the fuck you get jump scared in a shoot out.
@Pirat_Nation Man im so tired they do that little dance everywhere look at canada Trudeau resigned they put a successor of the same party/cabinet its just the same shit with a different face.
@tomkektv They are trying to push a narrative like ff14 with out the amount of cinematic and quest(MSQ) that they are pushing out i dont think wow need it to be successful and if you half ass story quest you should just focus your energy somewhere else.
And this come from a lore nerd.
