It was a PlayStation IP though until a couple of months ago.Then the thread makes no sense because Death Stranding isn't a PlayStation IP.

They dont have any direct competitors anymore until Xbox releases their next gen console.Because they dont know if they ll win next generation. Regarding this gen, they won, so they have no need to go guns blazing now
Did you ever ask yourself why Wii U only sold 13 million units (forcing Nintendo to run away for the console)?If Sony has no exclusives in the future, what the fuck is the point of buying their console? MS did this, and look where it got them. Nintendo didn't, and they're swimming in cash. Weird situation.
Sony is being run by braindead retards, Don Mattrick tier, it's not a good sign for the platform at all.MS made their system irrelevant. If you can play all their games on pc, their xbox has no reason to exist. And their sales prove this being the case. Is Sony trying to do the same thing, or something?
LoL.. ok.Who cares about exclusives. The only one I bought was AstroBot the others I wait for PSplus. I'm here for Monster Hunter and From Software. And I don't know how anyone can be disappointed after the SoP and also having tomorrow the Summer Game Fest with way more PS5 games. There are plenty of new games coming out. And all the Xbox catalog as well.
The unfortunate reality we live it, and to recover from this, it will take close to a decade. That's just fucked to even think about.Sony is being run by braindead retards, Don Mattrick tier, it's not a good sign for the platform at all.
To my recollection none of the Sony exclusives games have come on Xbox, only PC, after an year or two.
Yup that's it. For those who can wait there is barely any reason at all to have a PS5 as long as they have a capable PC.Sony relies heavily on being a cheaper option than a gaming PC to play most games, first and third.
The output of FP studios this gen is embarrassing.
bullshit³Better quality and really fully harness the capability of a specific platform. Im not just talking about Ps. I also want Nintendo or even xbox or pc to have there own exclusives. It makes games better quality and better competition and more choices.
Yea that's bullshit.People understanding in 2025 that games are expensives to make and needs to release on multiple platforms to be profitable...
I don't see Astrobot being ported to PC
Same with Gran Turismo.
Yeah its literally this. Nothing first party has come to Xbox. The only former exclusive that did was Death Stranding 1 after 5 years…Death Stranding 2 is again exclusive so long wait for a Xbox releaseTo my recollection none of the Sony exclusives games have come on Xbox, only PC, after an year or two.

Some of them are 6 months now (TLOU Part 1). Even day and date for remasters. It used to be like 5+ years but now it's much more common to be released way sooner now to PC. Spider-Man 2 was like 15 months.Until Dawn remake didn't take a year. Same for the upcoming Marvel fighting game
It's not minor if you want a hassle-free experience.
That's the big difference here, a google search going for an unknown amount of time (mins/hours/days/weeks) vs something directly handed to you in a patch because all hardware is the same on consoles.When that happens, a quick google search gives me a specific troubleshooting step that fixes the problem in 5 minutes.
It is for people who are literally clueless about pc's though, and I think that's what's holding them back.I had way more issues with my 360 and PS3 during that generation of hardware than I've had with my PC since I built it in 2011. I had RROD twice and my original PS3 went YLOD and had to be replaced due to the board actually cracking it warped so bad. My PS4 didn't have hardware issues per say, but it would get clogged up with dust and turn into a hair dryer until I disassembled it to the point where I could get to the heat sync. Similar story on the PS5 but not as bad. I also had random game crashes, system restarts, error codes that didn't provide any help, etc.
By comparison, I've never had any issues with drivers across 14 years of running Nvidia cards, and now a couple months of AMD. I've never had any hardware failures on modern PC hardware (since 2011). I've occasionally (once every few years) had a game crashing at boot up. When that happens, a quick google search gives me a specific troubleshooting step that fixes the problem in 5 minutes.
This idea that console gaming is trouble free and the PC is a wild wild west just doesn't hold water.
We get people on here all the time talking about what they're going through to fix their PC, and they are PC enthusiasts.It is for people who are literally clueless about pc's though, and I think that's what's holding them back.
They are too scared to even inplug a Dualsense controller, download a program that lets them use it on every game.
That for them is already a "hassle"
The planet where you pretend to not know things in order to create some doom and gloom. You also have to incorrectly say stuff like no exclusives exist, PS is porting everything to PC, and PS is going third party to get some extra points.What planet were you living on in the past few years?
I know this is probably a joke but honestly I think this is probably accurateThis statement won't hold up when Xbox becomes a PC.
What IP? you think they own Marvel?I thought Sony was big on exclusives. but now even their new IP isn't exclusive?
what happened?
if Nintendo is the only console still doing exclusives I think we're going to see a bunch of the Switch 2 sell
I think he's mistaken in regards to the right. Sony does own a lot of the Marvel characters (movie rights, but I think they fully own everything related to the Spider-Man universe). If he thinks Sony owns Marvel then I want what he's smokingWhat IP? you think they own Marvel?
My god thousands of games get released each year even without exclusives there is more than enough to play. The only company that needs to worry about exclusives is actually nintendo since they have such shit 3rd party support.
Agreed. Probably will play Xbox and PC games.I think whatever we see with the next Xbox, high probability it's a PC
Yes you can cover almost everything with PC
It's not just that. Steam users and players were untapped market for Sony until recently. They found out not releasing their most popular exclusive IPs on the platform was just shooting themselves in the foot financially.I think we have Chinese gamers to thank for all this. Chinese is the #1 language on Steam now. It's an enormous market. It's probably smarter to reach these customers where they already exists rather than spend huge customer acquisition costs.
Buying a PlayStation for exclusive games is over, it's much more worthwhile to wait and play the definitive version on PC, especially since ports are getting faster and faster.
Why not both? They can co exist in the PS ecosystemExclusives? Seem to me like they are barely making any games.
Hopefully the gaas scam goes away soon and they go back to making single-player games instead of cancelling multi-player gaas turds.
This isn't exclusive to Sony though so pointing them out is stupid. This is an industry wide problem that affects a lot of developers.Yea that's bullshit.
Sony has done a very poor job of managing their studios and their costs have spun out of control... $300 million for Spiderman 2 is ridiculous considering what that game was.
This is the correct answer here.Exclusives? Seem to me like they are barely making any games.
You're missing the point of why I said that. They sunk billions, created studios, hired and laid off studios and teams, shipped and canned multiple projects and games chasing the GaaS:The day that happens will be when there's no longer a AAA industry of any sort.
The hell you can't. They have a fiduciary responsibility to make money, not to lose it.Cant blame them for wanting more money. Typical corporation
I kinda hope so. At this point can't really afford to be buying all these consoles and keep my pc up to date.Yet.... I am pretty sure at least Astrobot will find its way soon.
