They said "We are exploring new and familiar ways to engage our community in 2019 and can’t wait to share our plans with you."
So, how about wait and see? Is that difficult to wait?
I know we are in an age of "give me now" (very noticeable in the intermission of E3 2018), but can we just relax and enjoy these great games, and when they're ready to share those plans, we will be here to listen.
And there are more companies making games for PS4.

@turtlelink DBZ have tons of characters, but, are those additional characters popular enough to bring to this game?

Spider-Man DLC for me

Remember when people review-bomb Shadow of the Tomb Raider because of a temporary price drop? People were furious because they insulted the fans who have the "privilege" of buying the game day one at full price.
People want the privilege of being the first to obtain something, and companies are exploiting that impulse. I mean, I see many gaming youtubers doing the same thing, asking for patronage and rewarding the patrons by being the first to consume any content they produce.

@johncalmc The last time we hear about FFVII Remake is that is being made in Unreal Engine 4, ruling out Luminous Productions (supposedly, all project in this studio will use the proprietary Luminous Engine).
Of course, things can change.

With Fortnite and COD Blackout, probably to late?

If they added Auron, I could play with my favorite FFX party.

What is fascinating is, it worked. Holding back the sound was clearly a strategy to generate articles, and here we are.

@get2sammyb It's confirmed that SE canceled the DLC because of Hajime Tabata's departure?

It's possible that people prefers the retail version of RDR2 instead of digital, saving a lot of internet traffic.

@NoxAeturnus
I remember when articles and comments about FFXIII and the sequels hurt the FF franchise future.
Today, here we are, again, articles and comments saying that updates and DLC planned for FFXV hurt and dilutes the franchise.
FFXV is the fastest selling FF with 8.1m units sold by September 2018.
What I want to say is, we all be here again when comments are whining about the combat, or other changes being made in FFVII Remake, but still hyped to the roof for the game.

@Neolit Never understood the extreme hate people have against the free updates and paid DLC for FFXV.

I'm looking forward to see Tabata's next project.

Well, at least ShogunRok won't complain any more because SE is doing more FFXV

@malbhet
Everything about FF Versus XIII was a collection vertical slices, concepts and ideas. Only after the rebranding to FFXV, that the game begins to take form.

It's Sony's console, so, their rules.
As for why is this happening, I read a comment somewhere, that could be related to the underage aspect of the characters, so could be this.

SE lack of a big release in 2018, like FFXV in 2016 and DQXI in 2017 (in Japan), is probably the reason for this financial results. It seems that Octophat Traveller and Shadow of Tomb Raider did not meet sales expectations.

Thank God for Marvel's license.

A remaster of Crisis Core would be welcomed, since the game only exists for PSP.

This is going to be the next cult classic

Wait! So it's going to be Anthem at February 22th 2019, and The Division 2 in March 15th, an then Battlefield V Battle Royale Mode at March 2019 (in an already overcrowded BR market).
I think EA overestimates people's time to play games

@get2sammyb Good working conditions don't get views in Youtube

@Enuo Isn't the classic Spider suit the same as the suit used in Raimi's movies?

@ShogunRok How is the performance in split-screen mode?

@ShogunRok How about backward compatibility with PS1, PS2, PSP, PS3 and PSV?

Like this article said https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2018/09/god_of_war_creator_reveals_why_sony_is_killing_it_right_now, is not enough to buy studios, MS need to support them creatively.

Buying this games digitally is just insane, unless you have very fast and reliable internet.

Release date to be revealed?

@get2sammyb Dragon Quest XI won the platinum in 2017.

I'm confused. DMC4SE has microtransactions (even has one package of 300000 Red Orbs).
Until the game releases, how about people calm down. If you are on the fence about the game, wait to see what the reviewers have to say.

Remaster Binary Domain and Vanquish and SEGA best games of last generation are all in PS4.

@Tasuki Here is the video for PS4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YC-EiAypwns

I remember one of the side missions of Yakuza 3, where you have to gather evidence and talk to people to solve a murder.
And SEGA, please port Binary Domain to PS4.

Is a good alternative to those who don't have the time to sink 60+ hours to beat the game.

I've just watched Maximilian Dood react to the trailer. Priceless.

Do I have to change my profile picture? ROLF

Please, remaster the first.

@naruball Development cycles not always follow the initial plan, things change, whether is decisions at technical, management, or even corporate level, there is always unpredictable factor that can change the roadmap initially planed.

I think he already said this. At the time KH3. And in the case of FFVII Remake he didn't know he was directing the game.
This was always SE Marketing jumping the gun too early.

@get2sammyb I thought that the only part of Fortnite that is free-to-play was the Battle Royale mode.
Probably the game that is included in the bundle is Fortnite Founders Pack.

@get2sammyb Wasn't Final Fantasy XI PS2 cross-play with PC one of the first cross-play titles?

As for the issue of cross-play, the people who write the articles about cross-platform are not representative of the big slice of consumer (IE, don't own 2 or 3 consoles plus gaming PC).
As for Fortnite, Minecraft or Rocket League, this games are not big enough to force Sony to do the cross-platform. The only games I think would do force Sony to change their stance are FIFA or COD.

Wasn't Platinum associated with selling more than 1.000.000 copies of a game?

I think there was a change in plans on how they would approach the development of the game. After all, Cyberconnect2 was working in the game, and then there was the plan to release the game in multiple parts.
Square Enix clearly didn't have the resources to work in the game as planed initially.

@get2sammyb We cannot forget there was a huge shuffle in the top brass in pretty much every level of the company. This changes take months to set in, specially in big companies like Sony.

While Fortnite is the most trending game now, but it can change in the future with the appearance of a new trend.
The games that could change Sony's mind about cross-platform are FIFA or Call of Duty. If Activision or EA decided they want everybody to play with everybody no matter the platform, that would be big.

@Dange I disagree about Epic, they are the first people who does have obligation to do what's right for the gamers. It's their game.
I think Epic has the clout to push Sony to accept cross-platform, after all, they are the company that created the most used graphics engine.

About the cross-platform issue, this would be resolved if the Epic wanted to (they are a big company). After all, is their game, they could say to Sony is cross-platform or no Fortnite for PS4. But like all companies, they like to make money, and here we are.

I have to be honest, there is no winning this. Specifically for Sony. If they rehash the same format (what happened in 2017), people say they are complacent. If they experiment (like this year), it's hubris. So, what do you want?
Reading through the articles and comments, people don't want press conferences, people just want one thing, trailers announcing new games, that's it.

Now I'm interested.

I think what people forget, is that Sony craft the showcases first for live audience. It was the same last year. But by reading the article, it seems that people are nervous or something.
Is Sony not delivering the games and experiences that they promised?

People have no patience. I think the show was good. The intermission was a good place to present the third party deals (the part that everyone say always suck in every conference anyway).
People just think they are entitled to wherever.
If you just want to see trailers, wait for the conference to finish and go to Youtube, they will be there to your convenience.
