Re: Former Blizzard Boss Slams Marvel Rivals, Comparing It to Horizon-Like Light of Motiram

wiiware

Lol, it's called competition, just make a better games if you want to beat your competitor 😂

@MasterTanookiChief Western developer prefer going bankrupt rather than giving gamer what they want. Although maybe that's by design, china gave them money with string (esg/dei), and when the company stock fall because nobody bought the esg games, tencent buy that company at discounted price and fire all the problematic employee from dei hiring.

Keep in mind that china ban esg/dei from their own company, you won't find esg/dei from marvel rivals (net ease), genshin impact (mihoyo), and all the gatcha games from china company.

Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Thinks the Days of Consoles Are Numbered

wiiware

There's always place for console, cheap(ist) hardware that you put on tv and play games without doing any tinkering, and play exclusive games as an added bonus. But most console are expensive now, although it's been a few years but the price is still the same, and most of the exclusive come to other system, so yeah, I think steam console-like machine can replace console if valve (not 3rd party) the one that make it and seriously sells it worldwide.

I think the exception to this is nintendo switch, since it's cheap enough and have a lot of exclusive games.

I think what happens is there's a limited number of hardcore and normal console player, and it isn't enough for infinite growth that most corporation want, unlike, say, pc gaming, where they can say there's billion of potential customers, despite not all of it want to play games.

Re: PlayStation Joins Social Media Shift as Bluesky Rockets in Popularity

wiiware

I really like community notes in X, that feature is ruthless, even the us president and X own owner (elon musk) didn't pass getting community noted, there's no way bluesky is as fun as that lol.

Even apple and disney is getting back to X again now, they already know that most people are there

Before, twitter feels like the place for people to be cancelled, now X feels like the place to see the latest news.

@Neither_scene Rather than exodus I heard it's becoming number 1 app in about 174 country, most people like free speech (within the confine of laws) without getting banned I guess. The app is number 1 top chart in news section in my country.

Re: Shuhei Yoshida's Resignation Prompts Massive Outpouring of Love for PlayStation Legend

wiiware

@Steel76 @Shrek_Realista I never understand what the higher-up at sony where thinking back then, "Hey ps4 is a huge success, let's fire (or lower their position) the creative people that make the console successful and change it with someone else".

I really though ps5 era will be like ps4 era with some improvement. Like more exclusives, refund feature for psn, better games for psplus, etc, basically just copy steam features and be more consumer friendly than before. Oh well, I guess this is what happens when corporations didn't get a good competitor (looking at you microsoft xbox).

Re: 74% of PS5 Fans Would Be Interested in a Handheld

wiiware

$300-$399 for a device that can play ps1-4 natively and ps5 in cloud seems fine, I want to play a lot of indie games on it and continue it on tv with ps5. The problem with switch is I can do that but most of the games on switch didn't have 5.1 surround, like the shantae series on switch vs ps4/5.

Since steam deck can already play ps1-4 and some ps5 games natively, I don't think that's a tall order for sony to do. It's better if the portable can play ps5 games directly with wifi like wii u pad if it's in the same room with ps5.

Re: This Online Anime Shooter Sees You Switch Between 2D and 3D Character Models

wiiware

Man this is a neat idea for single player fps games, too bad it's online multiplayer only 😕

I think pvp only fps game is hard genre to crack in western since most people already playing overwatch 2 and cod, pve 3rd person shooter like the first descendant is more likely to get more people playing.

@Fluberuper That's a low bar, lol.

Re: Japan Sales Charts: Dragon Quest 3 Is an Absolute Monster, PS5 Pro Falls Off

wiiware

Yeah, I can see the switch 2 with ps4 (maybe pro) power will be really really popular in japan. I think console power is already enough, sony should focus on more cheaper and smaller console rather than just more power with ps6.

Besides, who has the money to make single player AAA games with more graphics than ps5 right now, at least not games made in usa.

Oh well, I still buy this game on ps5 though since it has 4K and 5.1 surround support.

Re: Dressing Eve as 2B Won't Be Free in Stellar Blade's PS5 DLC

wiiware

@RoomWithaMoose Why the heck some company license 2B for a man-like rugged military operative, who's enjoying this, this isn't a sane company will do to get money from its customer. This is a waste of everyone time, both the devs and it customer.

Oh well, at least we can agree to disagree.

Re: Dressing Eve as 2B Won't Be Free in Stellar Blade's PS5 DLC

wiiware

@RoomWithaMoose It's kind of hard not to care if every western designed characters in games are like this, up to the point I know in a couple of second of games trailer whether the game designed in western or other place. Oh well, I hope this insane type a / type b characters design will soon disappear.

Re: Dressing Eve as 2B Won't Be Free in Stellar Blade's PS5 DLC

wiiware

@RoomWithaMoose I just don't care, one company put the works to scan another model for 2B, the other company just lazily put 2B clothes on their characters, and why license 2B character when you just put it on a clearly type 2 or type b character lol.

And in the end though, what will sell more and what will the gamers like, 2B shift up or 2B ubislop? I'm sure you'll know the answer.

One company will get the money from the dlc, the other one will get mocked in youtube and twitter, spiralling their own company reputation.

I hope there's new mission and new enemy for nier automata dlc in stellar blade, it's nice there's A2 and emil too beside 2B. I'm okay with paid dlc as long as it's not expensive.

@Keyblade-Dan Nope, what I'm absolutely sick is western developers character design, just look at stellar blade 2B vs ubisoft 2B.

Re: UK Retailers Are All Discounting the PS5 Pro Already

wiiware

The problem with ps5 pro is ps5 is already good enough, it can play most open world titles like elden ring with 60 fps, it's different with ps4 pro that at least can claim it's a 4K machine.

Also ps4 pro is a $400 machine while ps5 pro is $300 more expensive. Without drive & stand too 😅
