why do so many people speak with such certitude that Playstation pulling out of the PC market is a bad move? where does this confidence come from?
>>
>>736363780
They're just mad they won't get to play the shitty movie game exclusives.
>>
Sony isn’t pulling out of the PC market, that was just Jason (((Schrier))) speculating they would. The article came out months ago and sony still hasn’t confirmed or even mentioned it in any capacity
>>
>>736363875
this, every article and post about is based on literally nothing but jewson schrier pulling shit out of his ass like always
>>
>prices of components keep increasing
>playstation pulling out
>microsoft getting jeeted and going all in on agentic windows 12
>switch 2 still unhackable
>our lord and savior gabe delaying new hardware until 2028
pcsisters how do we cope...

Sony is the Jews/CCP

I couldn't care less

I'm starting to doubt that rumor because of Marathon selling best on PC, the Wolverine leak confirming the existence of a PC build and Sony raising the price of consoles. Sony would sooner confirm a $900 PS5 Pro than commenting on Jason Schrier's rumor.

>>736364094
I know that. Sony's games don't have high player counts outside of Stellar Blade. I get that you hate Ubilikes and walkie-talkies in your video games.

Movie games.

???

CCP might be the only major political power in the world today not controlled by jews

Most people on this board and other sites you frequent (like Reddit, tumblr, and grindr) are arguing from dishonest positions.
Some people do like Sony games, and they'll be missing out.
Others don't give a shit, so good riddance.
The reality is that this is a good move for Sony based on their own practices, since they barely sell anything when they put a release on PC a year or more later. That said, the practice of doing that hurts them more, since if they released day and date, people would be more likely to spend full price on a title over downloading from FitGirl.

TL;DR The actual move is bad in a vacuum, but it barely hurts them if it hurts them at all given their stupid exclusivity rules.

>>736363875
Oh yea? Then where is Ghost of Yotei PC edition, huh? Where is it?!?
>>
>>736365218
people that like sony games will have a playstation.

>>736363780
Is Sony still seething over the PlayStation account thing for Helldivers on Steam?
>>
>>736363780
>where does this confidence come from?
From Sony's long and colourful history of being stupid.
>>
>>736364936
Sure buddy.
>>
>>736365541
Not all, because a lot of people recognize that a console with its limitations is a pretty terrible way to play a game. So it ends up being
>want game
>don't want to play at low resolutions, detail levels, and framerates
>wait for PC version
>PC version comes a year later at full price
>fuck Sony, pirating
>>
>>736365352
Don't push your luck.
>>
>>736363780
im completely talking out of my ass but i think they wanted to get PC players to PS by having a "runs great on our 500$ console" argument but now after the hardware price increase their argument got a lot worse.
>>
>>736363780
it's not a bad move but it shows they failed

>release PC ports and they do well at first but slowly sell worse over time for multiplte reasons (releasing SP story focused games years after the dicussion died out for full price, porting over sequels without bringing over the previous games, most of the modern sony games just being third person action movies, bad ports etc)
>released multiplayer titles day 1 and have had a huge success with helldivers 2 and a bunch of games that also bombed on PS5 (concord, marathon etc) but still won't pull the trigger with day 1 on PC with single player games for some reason
>won't bring over the games that people actually demanded for like bloodborne
>force PSN requirements which locked a good chunk of the world from being able to even access their games

now they're in a situation where there's less interest for these games on PC and the few that still care about them will probably just keep waiting for them to come to the platform even if sony themselves outright say that they're PS5 only

its a bad move in the sense that there's companies making more money than ever with the PC platform playing a huge part of it and sony haven't even really tried hard enough to see why before bowing out. these games coming to PC haven't hurt the sales of the PS5 at all especially since most people would rather play fortnite & sports shit over god of war

I think they should try releasing a big game SP focused game day 1 on PC before giving up and going full console only again
>>
do not speak ill of the dead
>>
>>736363780
It comes from the fact that the playstation fanbase cannot be relied on to show up for game releases. Which means that sony needs to cast a wider net to get more customers.

>>736363780
>playstation does anything
>people who irrationally hate playstation: It’s over!
Hope that helps.

Just like China who boasts about winning but they lose base after base in the South China Sea. But that’s winning right? Having no naval or Air Force?

Oh no all those quality exclusives like astro bot and uhhhhhhhh.......

Kek

>>736363780
it's just seething PCissies knowing that they now have no more good games to look forward to, just stuttering UE5 slop
going back to exclusives is the best move for Sony and the reason they've dominated for so long
all these failed shooter sloppa games has opened their eyes
>>
>>736369891
You typed a bunch of bullshit just to say Sony has no games.
>>
>>736366284
As if snoys have critical thinking or self awareness

>why is cutting out a large consumer base that has proven to eat our games up a bad idea?
