@PlayStation @PlayStation I’m 38 and have been playing video games since I was 6. While I own PCs and other consoles, PlayStation has always been my primary home. I used to save up my pocket money as a kid just to buy your games. Now, I need to speak up. 🧵1/7 👇

@BobbyJohnson813 @xMBGx Sam*
Goddamn, look at me misnaming them 😅😅😅

Sry about that.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@BobbyJohnson813 @xMBGx Dan is not a writer but producer. However yes, you do have a valid point. But this worries me - https://t.co/6bc1jVI3BA.

Again, the game MIGHT be good, there's just some red flags buyers shouldn't ignore.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@RandolphBronson @RinoTheBouncer True. I remember exactly that with Days Gone (gain that game 🙂).
Little tit bit - I was going to pass on Wolverine, but considering recent events? I'm buying.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@BobbyJohnson813 @xMBGx Again. Be polite. My issue is that money and name doesn't equal success. Sam Houser - their script writer is out. I'm not saying the game will be shit. I'm saying that buying a game based on name and money is, and I'm sorry for that word - stupid.

GTACW was on Nintendo DS too.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@RandolphBronson @RinoTheBouncer Yeah, I don't argue with that, they changed the style and there was unnecessary backlash. Luckily I was there day one and honestly, that game is good.

Sad to report I was waiting on Days Gone which breaks my heart, that game was made for me. I love it to pieces.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@BobbyJohnson813 @xMBGx GTA china town wars? Dude, don't go hard on me because you don't know the history. There's several games that didn't go well. But fine, you do you, I don't t blame you. Just by polite, okay? Everyone deserves at least that treatment.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@jfk1233212001 @xMBGx Yeah, and some idiots already saying that they will happily buy it for 200$. For a game they didn't even see. Just based on name alone. Dan Houser is out, that's a red flag. They restarted the development - another one. They don't care. FOMO is real.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@BobbyJohnson813 @xMBGx We don't know if it's even good. So far it's just a game they chose to make for 1 billion. And they restarted the development halfway through. I strongly believe that customers shouldn't be punished for their mismanagement, but with your mindset you're enabling them to do so.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@Kios150 @clarke_san18335 @xMBGx I know you're joking but you have a perfect point! Why even bother to lose money on plastic cover and shipping? I don't get it from publisher AND customer sides of view.

[Pyo 5️⃣ @mrpyo1]

Don't believe these companies and their miss information
Don't believe bootlickers who are company simps

Don't accept physical media dying, keep fighting!!! People are NOT backing down at all, nothing is losing momentum.

Day 37 of posting an image of Nishino Hideaki and Lin Tao to spread awareness that they're evil bastards who wants to take away your ownership by halting the production of game discs.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says physical discs "don't really make sense" for big games like GTA 6
“Our business is well over 90% digitally distributed. It's already a digital business. So in certain instances, especially if it's a big game, discs just — note I said discs — don't really make sense for the consumer.

Translation: „we want to scam you out of your money, you having no rights, no second hand market“

[Rino🚀 @RinoTheBouncer]

We are watching the collapse of gaming and utter disrespect of players and the craft in real time, and we’re being gaslit to think it isn’t happening or that it’s somehow a good thing🚀

🗣️Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick argues that physical game discs make no sense for consumers

🗣️He also predicts that game streaming will be more commercial/mainstream in about 3 years due to the increasing prices of consoles and PC (Did he forget Stadia???)

So hear me out:

✅PCs and consoles became more expensive due to data centers

✅Now they want you to rent out data centers instead of the hardware that data centers caused to be overpriced

The same way they push physical games away:

❌We had was a box with a disc, a manual, a map and maybe another game’s demo

❌Then they took the items, then the map

❌And then they started making the game on disc require download or always being connected even for some single player games

❌Then they started counting DLC, MTX, free-to-play and digital only to inflate digital sales statistics and make it seem like physical games aren’t in demand, when even %10 is still million of people

❌Now they wanna take away disc, and to give you a code n the box, while the prices keep rising, while value and options keeps declining

This is their next step to making you own nothing, lock you into their ecosystem so you can remain subscribed and paying for their slop forever.

They will gaslight you into thinking “downloading games makes no sense, streaming is the way!”

Just like how the hypocrite argues physical games are like vinyl records and that “Sony knows better” when Sony themselves are marketing vinyl record players are the best way to listen to music and vinyl record sales are so high that artists release many variants to boost their album to No.1

And it’s crazy that gaming is the medium that needs physical media the most, as it’s the most demanding in terms of downloads and streaming compared to music, film, books and shows, all of which are far easier to access via download or streaming for a long time.

And as usual, gaming is the one industry where the customer is always assumed to be “wrong, entitled and toxic” and treated like children and expected to spend like adults, and also expected to worry about profits for CEOs, studio closures, and basically everything but their own best interest.

Enough is enough!

Stand up for your own self interest, before it’s too late for any meaningful change to happen.

NO DISC 💿 NO BUY

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@sophiez56_l @RinoTheBouncer That is VERY good question that deserves more attention! I think the main problem here is fear of losing options AND digital monopoly that COULD happen on closed ecosystem like PS store.
And preservation. People fear another WiiU e-shop closedown. I'm curious about your opinion❤️

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@inpek_g6 @RinoTheBouncer I mean... Yes. You are 💯 right on that one. However that can't be said about WiiU e-shop - it's gone with everything you bought. And the same will happen to PS3 / Vita e-shop. Once they decide it's not worth their effort, it's gone.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@zakidexter @RinoTheBouncer Don't get me wrong, I get where you're coming from, but it's not EXACTLY the same.

Main difference is they DO see us. However... They don't care 😅.
Still - it's good to voice our opinion I believe.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@RandolphBronson @RinoTheBouncer I think GoW sell well. But god damn... Days Gone... That one hurts. Really hurts. Yeah, we reap what we sow, huh?

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@OmniphobiaEntmt @RinoTheBouncer We're trying. And they DO see that backlash. So... They don't see individual people, but they do see the community. Just saying.

Will it make a difference? Don't think so, honestly. Still gonna voice my opinion.

[Tomáš Pecha @Tomas_Pecha]

@Warthunder1984 @RinoTheBouncer Cool name, I LOVE War Thunder! And yes, you are correct with the platforms, totally agree. PS however do NOT make games that people want - remember about those 12+ life service games that never saw the ligh of day? Marathon? Thank god for GoW and Wolverine. Bad ratio for Sony.

[Rino🚀 @RinoTheBouncer]

Take Two CEO Strauss Zelnick doubles down on their move against physical games pushing the same engineered anti-consumer narrative🚀

🗣️“Our business is well over 90% digitally distributed. It’s already a digital business.”

���Sony calculates microtransactions, digital-only games, free to play and DLC as “digital sales” and Rockstar is a MTX cesspool since its GTA Online

🗣️“Discs don’t really make sense for the consumer.”

✅Physical games mean:

1) Ownership

2) Access without the mercy of storefronts, networks and the internet

3) Collector’s items and sentimental value

4) Second hand market & trading

5) Better pricing and more options

You don’t get to define what makes sense for us, Strauss, especially not through lies and engineered narratives aimed to fulfill your insatiable greed

🗣️“Also, most instances you have to register online to play any how. If you’re already connected, who cares if you download digitally? It’s all the same and it’s much more convenient.”

✅We care not to be at the mercy of a digital storefront, a locked account, a network that is down or a license that can be taken at any time without compensation

🗣️“That’s where the world is going in our opinion, and I think Sony understands that.”

✅Your opinion has zero value because music is still sold on vinyl and CD and artists sell variants of them to chart No.1, movies and shows are still sold on Blu-Ray and books are still sold in print, despite the existence of the digital alternative far more conveniently and cost effectively, and way before games

✅Sony is detached from reality and wasted an entire generation on live service slop that ended up shutting down studios and never seeing the light of day and ruined their 3 decades old reputation in 6 years

Enough with the lies
All you care about is greed and a monopoly

NO DISC 💿 NO BUY
