This reads like a cosmic joke. The execs at Sony have no sense of irony or self-awareness.
Shinobi602@shinobi602.bsky.social · last mo.Sony to continue pursuing live service games despite challenges: "[...]live service games are content that attracts users on a global level, so we want to continue to revitalize the market through both 1st party & 3rd party content" said SIE president Hideaki Nishino ➡️ wccftech.com/playstation-...
But I wonder if they'd pay that much for other games and franchises that paywalled such features.
playswave@playswave.com · last mo.70% of gamers told IGN they'll pay $100 for GTA 6's Ultimate Edition — which paywalls single-player stores and mod shops behind a $20 upcharge. The $100 game just got its proof of concept.
This is a sad day. Mismanagement. Corporate avarice. Investor and shareholder greed. There are many reasons why this happened. But I don't want to vent my anger. Today, I want to think of the community managers, engineers, artists, and programmers who lost their jobs. My heart goes out to them.
Bungie@bungie.net · last mo.
Oof, that doesn't sound good at all. Not even rollback or crossplay???
Ultima@ultimashadow.bsky.social · last mo.I can’t believe how fucked Dead or Alive 6: Last Round is. No crossplay, rollback, or DLC included, characters cost more to unlock than they did in the original, and on top of that, they apparently didn’t even really do any notable patching/balance changes. Hope DOA7 doesn’t also end up a cash grab.
In this current time and political climate, I shouldn't be surprised that there are people (who may actually be bots) who are willing to defend corporate malfeasance and sheer human avarice. And yet...
What relevance could that have had in this man's obituary? WTF??? And yes, I know he was co-founder of Ubisoft. But it's not an article about his company's projects or the impact he may have had on them. It's just trash so-called "journalism."

It begins. I can only offer words of support for the impacted developers. I hope they find new jobs and creative endeavors.
Windows Central@windowscentral.com · last mo.Compulsion Games has begun an unknown number of layoffs, with staff reductions hitting the studio behind South of Midnight and We Happy Few as part of wider cuts across Microsoft’s gaming division.
Twitter/X just serves as a constant reminder that humanity is a fascinating little shit show. But I'm glad one of my Destiny 2 tweets got a decent amount of views! Lol
Saw a post from dmg04 on the other platform talking about how Guardians have done all we can and it's unfortunately how things work out sometimes (paraphrasing, obviously). Then posts from the dev team about how certain bug fixes may not be done. Sony deserves all the pushback they get from this.
Proud of the community for once again pulling off an amazing challenge (probably our last, *sniffle*) and proud of the devs for working so hard on creating it for us! The Destiny 2 team is legendary!!!
Destiny 2 Team@destiny2team.bungie.net · 2mo agoThe Intrepid Pearl emblem is yours, Guardians! We asked for 250,000 completions of the Excision story mission and you delivered with ample time to spare. You sent a message as a community: The Witness will always be vanquished when Guardians band together as one.
That art direction!!!!
RPGFan@rpgfan.bsky.social · last mo.Happy 27th anniversary to #Persona 2: Innocent Sin, which was originally launched in Japan on the PlayStation today! With style to spare, fantastic characters, and a gripping narrative, this entry is a genre classic. Check out our review below! Review: www.rpgfan.com/review/shin-...
Favorite episode title is definitely "Weapon X, Lies, and DVDs." LOL

Oh, sure. It has nothing to do with taking jobs away from creatives and developers and using gen AI to increase the corporate bottom line by destroying jobs. Sure, it's all about "unlocking devs' creativity". That's what they're calling it now.
Gaming Amigos@gamingamigos.com · last mo.Electronic Arts executive Laura Miele believes artificial intelligence is helping developers become more creative by reducing repetitive tasks and streamlining development workflows.
STOP BUYING PHYSICAL EDITIONS THAT ARE JUST EMPTY BOXES WITH DOWNLOAD CODES INSIDE YOU ARE LETTING GAMING COMPANIES KNOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT
Problem is, those of us who are informed can raise all the seven hells about it, but it won't make a damn bit of difference. Rockstar will set numerous records and corporate greed will be rewarded and the industry will yet again learn the wrong lessons. Fucking hell.
Paul Tassi@paultassi.bsky.social · last mo.Why ‘GTA 6’ Is Putting In-Game Stores Behind A $100 Ultimate Edition Paywall www.forbes.com/sites/paulta...
This right here. Gaming shouldn't be a "luxury." It's a hobby. It's something that keeps us all from succumbing to the existential dread we all face waking up every morning. Or maybe that's just me. Lol Yep, end with a joke, self. That's how we do.
Jadeˣᵛ@wildbergerrrr.bsky.social · last mo.Gamers love throwing out the "lol you're just broke" insult. YEAH, I AM BROKE. AND GAMING IS ONE OF THE ONLY THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY. SO YES I'D LIKE TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD MY HOBBY SO I DON'T DRIVE OFF A CLIFF.😂
I need to watch this movie! I never have, and it's an oversight I have to rectify.
Phoef Sutton@phoefsutton.bsky.social · last mo.Tonight on TCM #TCM THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN (1971) Remember when science was good? This one of the best, most realistic science-fiction films of the 70s. Based on the novel by Michael Crichton and directed by the great Robert Wise. Well worth watching.🎥
Knightfall is one of my favorite Batman stories of all time. Stoked for this adaptation!!! Also, the fact that they adopted Kelley Jones' art style for this is perfection.
Culture Crave 🍿@culturecrave.co · 2mo agoFirst trailer for the ‘Batman: Knightfall Trilogy’ 🦇 It will be Rated R
I positively would have played a Destiny dating sim! And this is coming from someone who doesn't play a whole helluva lot of 'em. But hell yeah. I would have leaned into it hard.
GamesRadar+@gamesradarplus.bsky.social · 2mo agoDestiny 2 devs repeatedly pitched a dating sim, Bungie veterans say, "but leadership was very Hard No that nobody wanted romance or silliness" www.gamesradar.com/games/destin...
I love the way she plays her. (Also, I really like "hot mess" characters, so this take on Kara is perfection in my eyes, lol.)
DiscussingFilm@discussingfilm.net · last mo.Milly Alcock tells us what she learned the most about playing Supergirl in live-action. “I needed to play her in this really weird and wonderful way to believe that I could be the hero in my own story, that I could be capable.”
Y'know something? Not that it actually matters, but I think Milly Alcock is perfect casting for the version of Kara we're getting in the Supergirl movie. I think she's beautiful, adorable, super cute, and utterly amazing as an actress! She's gonna be great! I cannot wait to see the movie!
