When will the industry realize that they should stop making games for an audience that will never buy video games?

I really hope Sony doesn’t do that. Then again, they will use the Xbox buying Activision as their main excuse to monopol… I mean, buy part of the manga industry

Well, how else are they gonna recoup the Failguard’s losses?

I’ll definitely skip The Joke Awards this year

Also, skipping Stellar Blade and Space Marine 2 is a capital sin, considering that very few new IPs were actually good this year

$700 saved, then

DLCs and Expansions, sure, since they are new content. But remakes and remasters… heck no!!!!

Valve can count to 20 but not to 3 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Just remove the episode and save the embarrassment. We won’t judge you.

So, Sony made a huge legal fuss over nothing…

@ChrisDeku *sips coffee
The UK is only a region, not a reflection of the rest of the World.
Check the Steam numbers. Veilguard never got past the 90k peak concurrent players on opening weekend and it now sits at less than 60k this week. Even BG3 , a much more niche game, is still doing strong every week.

The massive refunds are not taken out of my you know what. Those are facts https://medium.com/@DarkRa/dragon-age-the-veilguard-faces-surge-in-refund-requests-amid-mixed-reception-2d0890cfbacb

GameStop is currently giving less than $20 credit on Veilguard because of the massive trade ins received. Check the store page if you think I’m lying.

And the biggest indicator of all, Bioware canned all plans for DLC and future content for it. When EA, of all publishers, is reluctant to milk gamers with additional content on their games, you know the situation is terrible. Don’t rely on one side of a story or news article, get to read what’s really going on.

Sales are indeed terrible for Veilguard. It haven’t gotten past 700k sales and many are refunding or trading them in. Had Veilguard been a success, Bioware would have already told it on the opening weekend…

Really rooting for Palword

8 years, $400M invested, and they didn’t have the decency to test Concord in time!?!?! LOL 🤣🤣

Had they tested the game 5 years ago, they would’ve been back at square one, which would’ve been the sensible choice

@Cerny “ 45% more compute power, only 10-15 frames higher? absurd”
Not absurd at all, 45% of 30fps is close to 14fps. So it’s right within what you said. More raw power won’t translate in more fps if the game is unoptimized or fps locked to begin with.

Excellent thumbnail 😊

Is Ubisoft really trying to promote the game or just make even less people buy it? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

As a genius game designer once said: “a delayed game will eventually become good. a rushed game will forever be Concord”

Perfect Dark is gonna be on PS5 eventually, so he hasn’t “really” left

@Jay767 No matter the amount, thought there is evidence that indicates the 400M including the purchase of the studio, spending 8 years, top money and advertisement on a game that sold 20k units is more than enough reason to hellfire the so called CEO

@Jay767 Draining $400M on a flop is a great counter weight to all the “good things” the guy has done.

Get rid of Hulst, please

Hooray for non recyclable plastic! 🥳🥳

Xillia 1 and 2 when?!?!

@DualWielding The current Playstation CEO said that

There was no way Sony would recoup those $400M by relaunching the game. Let this be a lesson for those devs who refuse to give what people want

Since when are people complaining about a non existent DLC? Have they forgotten that games used to launch content complete to begin with?

How did I miss this?!?! Time to start reading 🍿🥤

Namco: Let’s fix Yajirobe while Whis is the literal Saitama

@ButterySmooth30FPS “It's our job as players to evaluate whether we enjoy things on our own terms.”
That doesn’t hold true when the game is not interesting for players to begin with. When users scores get shown from actual UK9 players, I believe they would be worse than critics’.

@ButterySmooth30FPS @twitchtvpat It doesn’t matter, really. If said game of the new IP is bad, then it will be dead on arrival. Concord is the best example of that. I’ve seen critic reviews, not just users comments, pointing out all of the deficiencies of Unknown 9, and none are related to politics. Push Square gave it a good score, and that’s fine. But they are in the minority right now.

This game has been getting 4s and 6s everywhere else. So, a 7 is a generous score

I really, really, really hated AoD. The rest of the TR games are good, though

I bet this will sell more than AC Shadows

The monkey battles were also frustrating in Budokai Tenkaichi 3

Take notes, Ubisoft

Guess we’re gonna have to keep waiting until dawn 😫

The guy played too much Trauma Center 😂 Good to see the DualSense being used on such amazing things. Just don’t try to use them in submersibles…

Let Embracer Group buy them 😂

“You may fire when ready”
You mean fire at the game, right? 😅

@DarthAmmii how is talking about a 9 year old game’s ending a “spoiler”. Doesn’t make any sense

This sounded like when the avoidant dumps their perfectly loving partner just to feel relief. Epic will do this again.

Why investigate? the answer is obvious.

How did they manage to pay one of the goats of movie soundtracks?

Damage control at its finest

Please don’t do that

@Flaming_Kaiser Concord, The Day Before, etc, counter your logic quite perfectly

Our rejection of these live service games is also not a joke

Hopefully the Guilletine brothers concede the reigns of the company
