It seems that Microsoft may be becoming more open to releasing their games on other platforms
Lol cause it bombed hard and was boring as shit
It really didn’t bomb hard, it is pretty dull after you get through the main missions though.
How nice of Microsoft to let the PS community be as disappointed in Bethesda as the rest of us.
Sweet, now PS5 owners will be able to dig through menus for hours and run around desolate landscapes achieving fuck-all!
Well with the PS5 having double the storage bandwidth, we’ll see slightly less loading. Enter ship, loading screen. Land on planet, loading screen, etc.
Nobody is winning here long-term. Microsoft is growing its subscription service and every step is with that in mind. Getting people to buy their games now, like Starfield, is likely seen as closing the gap a little more towards encouraging that.
Like all of these things, it will be great and a value at first and then a squeeze for more money with less offerings. People en masse will say they won’t be a part of it, and then record profits (like Netflix right now) will be shown.
Not all is doom and gloom though. Indie games are rapid fire releasing, Linux is growing due to Valve and Chromebooks, and I found a ten dollar bill in my pocket this morning.
I’m mostly frustrated with always online games. They remain the enemy for longevity and nonsense outside of the MMO space.
Gamepass has already hiked their prices up, and is severely hampered on PC by offering “Xbox” versions of games that are often older builds with more bugs, fewer features, and if they’re multiplayer games, don’t allow you to play with friends on Steam.
Years after all the Gamepass hype and I still fail to see how Gamepass is really that much of a value. The only really defining characteristic of it is the day 1 releases, but more often than not those late disappointing on their own.
If you’re pirating everything and want to play online then gamepass is your choice because trendy games switch so fast and buying new one every time is troublesome so you’re buying gamepass and have access to most of them in one go
Only one real reason why they’re doing this: Starfield fell short of sales goals
If it’s only Starfield than yes, but if they are bringing other games too, then that could be different story. Let’s see what happens.
Please, somebody, buy this crap. lol
No, thanks
Dear Video Game diety Todd Howard,
Please release The Elder Scrolls 6 on PS5.
I mean, Sony AND Microsoft started to do exclusivity only temporary, first year or few it’s exclusive and after that they both double dip to make some more money
I’d be really happy to play some Xbox exclusives on my ps5! I don’t see any downside to it as long as Sony still has some competition on the console market.
In this case, the downside is that it’s not a very good game.
Yeah from what I understand it’s clearly a disappointment. But it’d be a symbol of more to come if it’s released on ps5.
I don’t care if we have to wait a few years after xbox exclusivity, it’d still be nice.
MS spent all that money on studios just to release the games on other platforms anyway lol.
Meaning they get money if those studios release a game that sells well on a rival console.
Dead on Arrival.
