@LegionLooterana Kinda pleased in a way I don't want a straight through run going gun crazy ect.... will feel more realistic in a way to have to think and plot our missions/attacks/choices sounds like it's going to be a buzz to be honest.
@YorchTorchGames Would definitely make the game more engaging having to really think about the best approach/choices needed to get through missions rather than just blast through and game be over in minutes,I personally like the idea just hope it all plays together well.
SONY, I THINK YOUR OWN ARGUMENT JUST COLLAPSED.
Nobody is claiming that buying a copy of a game means I own the copyright to the game.
"That has never been the argument."
If I buy a movie on Blu-ray, I don't own the movie studio's intellectual property.
"I own MY COPY."
If I buy an album on CD, I don't own the artist's music or the record label's copyright.
"I own MY COPY."
Millions of people can own separate copies of the exact same movie, album, book or game at the same time.
We have understood this for generations.
Apparently everyone but you!
And when I own that physical copy, I can put it into compatible hardware and use it. The studio doesn't suddenly get to argue that ownership is impossible because somebody else bought the same movie too.
So why should a video game suddenly be different just because the delivery mechanism changed from a plastic disc to digital data?
That is where Sony's reported legal argument loses me.
I'm not claiming I own Resident Evil.
I'm claiming I paid for MY COPY of Resident Evil.
Those are two completely different things.
And Xbox just made this argument even harder for @Sony to defend.
Microsoft has demonstrated that a physical game can be tied to an individualized digital entitlement.
They don't have to hand the customer the copyright. They don't have to give one person exclusive ownership of the game.
They simply have to recognize that THIS consumer paid for THIS entitlement to access THIS game.
Millions of people can each possess their own entitlement to the same copyrighted work.
"Of course they can."
Sony already assigns digital licenses to millions of PlayStation accounts every day.
So the question was never whether the technology exists.
The question is what rights the consumer receives after Sony puts the word BUY on the screen and takes their money.
Here is the distinction that matters:
I OWN MY COPY.
I DO NOT OWN THE COPYRIGHT.
Movie studios understand that.
Record labels understand that.
Book publishers understand that.
Physical video games have worked that way for decades.
What makes you any different, @Sony?
Digital distribution should not magically erase that concept simply because the corporation has more technical control over the transaction.
And if the customer pays full price while receiving fewer rights and less control, I think consumers have every right to ask who actually benefits from that arrangement.
Sony doesn't need to give me ownership of its intellectual property.
Sony needs to explain why paying full price for my copy should give Sony more control over what I purchased simply because that copy arrived as bits instead of on a disc.
And Xbox has now demonstrated that individualized digital entitlements are absolutely possible.
The movie and music industries have demonstrated the underlying principle for generations.
Sony companies themselves sell movies and music on physical media that consumers can buy, take home and play whenever they want on compatible equipment.
So please explain why video games should suddenly be treated differently.
That makes the legal argument much more difficult to defend.
That's the conversation I think Sony needs to answer.

How a Proper NG+ Mode Should Work in Crimson Desert.
🔹A complete main story and side quest reset, with full carry-over of:
🔹All Abyss Artifacts, gear, blueprints, and completed upgrades from the first playthrough.
🔹Acquired Knowledge entries (giving players the chance to unlock the rest during NG+).
🔹Access to old private storage chests and home collectibles once the Greymane Camp is set up.
Thoughts?

@huefoxg@KyAnon1776 That's what I'd like to see too, otherwise it's pointless replay engagement if its just rinse and repeat/way to much burn out given size of game!
