Considering the current lack of PS5 exclusives....

I suggest a radical solution to the PS5's current problems: Pay Square Enix to make KH IV an exclusive.

If it were an exclusive, I would buy a PS5. It's one of the few studios that hasn't been rocked by the "Live service game" fiasco that has really hit home over the past few months.

Kingdom hearts 3 was on the Xbox, but It just doesn't feel the same to me. It's never really been a "Xbox" game

What do you think?
 
Why do you give a shit? Are you earning money for every PS exclusive released? It's just a plastic box ffs, the more people are able to play it, the better.

Some of you are really weird.
 
it's probably another 2-3 years away from being released.. KH3 was the longest I had a preorder for, which was 7+ years and that's not mentioning the 10 year hype train surrounding the announcement to the game actually being released. Waiting for KH4 to drop just to get a PS5 is like skipping this generation entirely.

1: Thats a fairly expensive plastic box

2: I want a good reason to purchase a plastic box

3: Yes I definitely have stock in Sony

So? Nobody forced you to buy it.

Breaking news: games. The reason is the games, exclusive or not. It will not change ANYTHING to your experience whether they are playable on Xbox/PC or not. You will still be able to enjoy your console for what you bought it for: gaming.
Your comments show that you are very weak-minded, if it REALLY bothers you that this is coming to Xbox.

3: Yes I definitely have stock in Sony
Well, trust me you're not helping them by acting like a spoiled kid.

A good reason to purchase an expensive plastic box?

To play the game?

What does it matter if exclusive or not, the console you picked will have it

This tribalism feeling like you made the right choice because the others can't play it is so weird.
 
Now that is surely a hot take...

I don't know why anyone would be in favor of exclusives.

Why would it benefit anyone if Kingdom Hearts was exclusive? For a consumers standpoint, exclusives are pretty anti consumer, as it wants to lock you into a specific platform.

Being able to play it on PC, Switch 2, Xbox , Playstation or whatever it comes to, benefits everyone.

Also, it doesn't really care what you feel about it doesn't play the same to you. Other people can play it fine on Xbox or any other platform it comes to.

If it feels like a playstation game to you, then there's one reason for you to buy a playstation 5?

1: Thats a fairly expensive plastic box

2: I want a good reason to purchase a plastic box

3: Yes I definitely have stock in Sony

Ah, bingo.

It's almost like the Nintendo Switch isn't a thing. "Oh it would have sold the same if Mario wasn't an exclusive" my ass.

Tell me what's better: A console that can a selection of optimised games and makes you fork out tons for online subscriptions

Or

£200 Refurbished steam deck that can run all of them pretty damn well and doesn't ask you pay money to play online.

That's not a point, that's a baseless insult. One of the few things you seem to be capable of.

Then why don't you buy a Steam Deck?

Also, while Steam Deck (and pc in general) isn't gated behind paying to play online, there's actually a ton of games Steam Deck can't play online because of the lack of support of Kernel Anti-Cheat, which is coming in more games lately.

Even games like GTA V stopped working for Linux online wise because it recently got kernel anti-cheat.

Then there's a reason to get it on PS5 compared to Steam Deck. PS5 doesn't need kernel anti cheat.

You could also install Windows on your Steam Deck, however. I just don't know if kernel anti-cheat will work on Steam Deck even though you can install Windows on it.

Are you comparing FIRST PARTY games to KH4? I would love for Sony to release more FIRST PARTY games, exclusive to PS5 (AND PC HAHAHAHAHAHA ARE U MAD KID?)

But Sony think GAAS is the future, not my fault.

Ooooooh baby is not happy someone is telling him the truth?

I have a Steam Deck for this reason. I enjoy it because I can play any game I have a interest in on it (including Kingdom Hearts).

As for the kernel anticheat, you can install Windows I believe to get around it? (I have never tried it, so I don't know how well it performs running off Windows).
 
Hot take: Kingdom Hearts IV - shouldn't exist because even Square Enix has no idea what's going on in the game in terms of plot (To be honest, no one knows what's going on in the game anymore) or how it can even continue...

You're the one asking for opinions, you even create a thread for it and once it doesn't go the way you imagined, you start crying.

Give me a break, fanboy.

Nothing about this is radical. This is literally Sony's strategy since the PS1. Majority of people on this site love it. OP is just actually being transparent.

Unfortunately its just dated. SQEX tried that this gen and it blew up in their face. The 3rd party publishers that branched out early have built much larger, growing fan bases. SQEX will put their stuff everywhere or maybe try Switch 2 exclusives. Pretty much every PS5 exclusive they committed to underperformed significantly. Forespoken, Foamstars, Valkyrie Profile, FF 7-2, FFXVI, and on.
 
The entire Kingdom Hearts franchise has sold 37 million

The single game: Super Smash bros Ultimate featuring Sora has sold 36 million

Give it to Nintendo to get the most sales.

I'm asking for opinions on my opinion, not someone such as yourself firing off insults on a user you just learned about 30 minutes ago
 
Not gonna happen with Square stating their plans to "aggressively pursue a multiplatform strategy." Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Final Fantasy 16 underperformed due to being PlayStation exclusive. Those days are over.

I agree, they will 100% release a multiplatform, but now they will write that their games are underperformed on all platforms, and not on any specific one. Because they still believe that the problem is not in their games and not in how they make them or listen to their audience, but in something completely different.

Understandable. I definetely see the reason to want a PC. I am mainly home most of the time, so I have access to my PC most of the time, but it just seems comfortable and a nice thing to grab my ROMs and games over to the couch.

It's a combination of the two I think. Being exclusive to one platform automatically limits your potential audience. But they do need to figure out to make games with broader appeal because their current big budget content isn't cutting it.

Just listen to what your audience wants and do it. Expedition 33 is probably the biggest middle finger in the history of Square Enix. And with the approach that they are currently have, they not going to have good sales, even if they go multiplatform, especially with their inflated budgets.
