So I've been thinking, but does anyone else enjoy the legit pieces of inside baseball that come from the Lang/JV/Adam Boyes segments? Sure, most of it's a late night garbage fire, but every now and then they say some insightful stuff, just wrapped in the ridiculous of the situation.
I think it was last year where post-Sony, so it couldn't have been the E3 stuff, so my memory might be hazy, but Boyes was talking about the No Man's Sky situation and how HelloGames sort of did their own thing without Sony PR backing them up, and that obviously sewed a good deal of the controversy to come.
This year, I just finished the E3 segment, and I think it was when the three were roleplaying as each other, but Lang starts going off about how Sony is shunning indies and it didn't sound like a joke... at all. And it got me thinking that it really seems like that's the case lately, especially since Boyes left, I can't remember a single time Sony has been on stage really showing off a strong indie line-up the way they used to. Outside of VR stuff, Sony didn't seem to mention anything that wasn't AAA at this E3. Meanwhile, Microsoft had a whole bunch of cool looking smaller games that they locked some nebulous exclusivity around, a lot of which I'd obviously like it it was on the console I use 99.9% of the time over my Xbox.
I don't know, wonder if there's actually anything there. Sort of fun reading between the lines of some of the things said in those segments.
