Labelling critics as haters, okay then. I find it bizarre that anyone would expect someone to want a game to do well economically regardless of however bad it is. This game has absolutely flopped when measured against any reasonable context, the estimated numbers weren't pulled from thin air, using steam numbers, PSN and retail. The franchise went from 16 million to maybe 1.
Less QA testing and more common sense testing from your average gamer. And as usual better management. Almost all issues can be solved with better management unless most of your staff are incompetent, they clearly weren't.
Wasn't PS4 Pro the first proper 4k console. It should be more impressive though with the Pro being double the price especially with a separate disc drive and doesn't it come with no stand?
The first playable historic character they decide is going to be some obscure figure that originated from the other side of the planet from the setting, appearing completely different from everyone else in the country isn't a great trait for an Assassin. A lot of mindless waffle from this dev. The game is set in different places on earth in different ages, of course there will be varied representation 🤦 the games have never been historically accurate, they're games not teaching tools. People are upset because they used this one game and instance to explain away a perceived bad choice. I'm sure there are many many AC fans that have waited a long time for a Japanese game and were looking forward to playing as a ninja or samurai, what they're getting is not what they expected to be getting and being disappointed is apparently 'toxic'.
No idea what the drama is, I somewhat enjoyed the very first game but have no interest in playing any of the games after that, I may have tried and or finished the second one I don't even recall, the franchise has been juiced way too many times and I doubt anyone cares enough to have any hate for game number 5/6/7/8
Looks fine, I'm not sure the actual storyline will be all that interesting, probably just wait for it to be on sale. When you start out your trailer trying to get me excited about a couple of burnt out vehicles and a shoddy playground.... yeah, okay. I'm not sure if that was supposed to be humour but it didn't land.
Imagine spending all that money on CGI cinematic animations for boring heroes. They could overhaul the heroes design but the animations will be useless.
Don't much care, I still haven't played the first game, I'll probably pass on the second. Where Sony have had a choice of lead character in the past years since ps5/late PS4 the split has been about 50/50 between male and female. Ghost should have been perfect to just create your own character, you don't often or ever get that choice with Sony, they like their brands and recognisable faces are brands.

Re: Video: 2025 Is Shaping Up to Be PS5's Best Year Yet
Sony probably aren't this smart but launching ps5 pro around the same time as new GTA and black ops is ideal, new monster hunter doesn't hurt either.

Re: Like It or Not, This Is Why PS5 Pro Doesn't Have a Disc Drive
I assume this relates to units and not overall cash values, more indies and more digital only games will do that.
