Is Sony trolling?

I'm being saying it from the start, they're coasting the gen not giving a fuck because they have no real competition, they know Nintendo and PCMR do their own thing and are untouched + Xbox keeps shooting itself in the feet while walking backwards

GTAVI will help them more than a barrage of high quality SP exclusives ala Sony 1st Party post 2009

Seriously, Days Gone Remastered? This game runs amazingly on PC and PS5 at a high resolution.

Horizon Remastered. Same thing.

TLOU already had a remaster. TLOU II on PS5 with just the PS4 running in backwards compatibility runs and looks fantastic.

There's one damn classic PS4 game that's stuck at 30fps and 1080p with terrible frame pacing and it's the one Sony refuses to remaster.

This only feels like they're trolling.
Is it safe to say that PlayStation have officially jumped the shark at this point? Who in the fuck was asking for this shit to be remastered?

I don't really mind these remasters in the sense of if you buy the original version, this just costs $10 to upgrade to, even if you have a physical version. What I haven't liked is on PC at least with Horizon Zero Dawn, they gave the $10 upgrade too...but delisted the original game for new buyers, then repriced the remaster to $50 as the only new option, costing more than the depreciated original + the $10.

I just want Sony to remaster more of their older emulated catalog (PS1-PS2, PSP-Vita) at better quality and a faster pace than the slow drip-feed for the sake of preservation, and if you legally want to emulate some of those older titles didn't get a ton of physical copies made so they're expensive. Also, given RPCS3 getting decent PS3 emulation on PC, I'd like to see Sony figure out how to emulate PS3 games on PS5 instead of needing the cloud.

I think they're trying to do a relaunch for Days Gone since the original release didn't land so well and the game has sort of a cult following. I think they're trying to gauge whether there's interest for a DG2 or not. Just my 2 cents.

My guess is Sony first party games will be awesome for the PS6. The rest of this generation is going to be dire though because of the infatuation Sony had making GaaS.

Which is a shame since usually year 4 and 5 in a generation is often when the best games arrive. Well, at least this gen being extremely underwhelming is allowing me time to tackle the backlog. Thanks Sony.

Are you trolling?

I've yet to understand this take. Are you interested in the game? No? It's not for you then. Good riddance. It still can be for other people.

Some of you say and act like if Playstation has got your credit card as a hostage and buy every single game you're not interested in.

It is safe to say that the people who liked 1 will want a 2. I don't think anyone else is interested. So take the sales of 1 and figure out the group amongst them that liked the game enough to want a sequel.
 
You think I go around posting on video game forums because I don’t appreciate gaming?

Is that really your take?

I’ve put hundreds of hours into Diablo 2 with many people on this very board my dude

Good for you. Sounds like you need to gain some level of self awareness and realize that other people enjoying other types of games than you is not destroying the industry.
 
The only clowns here are the stupid fucking piece of shit PlayStation fanboys that keep buying this shit. Sony at the end of the day is a company, if their product sells, they will keep making more. just logic. so blame the goats that buy these games.

at least on PC, steam users are actually telling Sony to shove it with their shitty ports and shitty remasters. playstation games sales on PC are getting worse by every title. So, hopefully this continues and Sony keeps on losing more money till they learn the hard way or get the fuck out of the business.

When a company like Sony release shit remasters, or shit ports on PC, its a clue that they don't give a fuck about anything and trying to get quick cash and short term profit.

But like I said. Goats... ( its just 10$ whats ur problem loser ) yeah shut the fuck up.
I read this as Andy from The Office and it was fucking great.
 
See the poll results in the other thread. I don’t think I’m the one who lacks awareness here.

The poll results are people complaining that every single Sony studio didn’t reveal more of their games. It has zero to do with anything other than overhyped expectations for what a February state of play is.

There’s plenty of great games shown off, none of which indicates the industry is being ruined

Alright man, we’re all wrong and you’re right

Feel better?
 
This is what happens when you force all your studios to work on live service trash, and then cancel them. So you have to pump out shit like remasters to fill the void. Most of these studios will not be getting new games out until the PS6 at absolute earliest.

This conundrum comes courtesy of Ryan and his protege Hulst btw.

Why do you all hate so damn much about remasters? It's not taking up massive resources and it makes the games look better. If they have time, do it.

Like nobody was complaining when Witcher 3 got a next gen remaster.

Lol I always ask what 'resources' do people talk about. They don't know what is being used to produce these remasters to begin with.

I might go back for the DLC, but this game was painfully long and wouldn't do another playthrough. I had my fill of it at release already.

Hahahahahaha, I love these meltdowns. It's impressive how delusional fans can get.

You should all be thankful Bloodborne is perfectly playable and acquirable in in this generation and previous one too. Plenty of franchises that are not available anymore is the ones that should get any attention.

Trolling is acting like Sony is supposed to do anything for this game beyond what they already done.

Cerny have said future games aren't about graphics and he specified the Ps6, I think he meant what he said as well as Shawn Layden.

They don’t need to care or make anything when they have GTA6 coming. If that gets delayed things will be brought forward

This really feels like a troll, not only the game choice but also the quality of the remaster, this is the definition of cheap cash grab.

No point in wasting Bloodborne on PS5. They’ve already sold that system, so it’s going to be saved for PS6/PC.

They’re just coasting to their next console now.

So people were up in arms, worried about the closure of Bend Studio after the cancellation of their live service game, now they make a remaster of a game that could now get a sequel if this remaster does well (speculation on my part but it means the franchise isnt totally dead) and now people are complaining that Bend/Sony are actually releasing this remaster? (which in turn will make money for Bend and Sony which hopefully means its less likely Sony will close the studio.... as an aside I personally dont think Bend were/are in any danger of shutting but internets will internet)

Its a $10 upgrade, buy it or not, why complain about it? remasters DO NOT take a long time to make and do not cost a lot to make either, they easily make their money back on dev costs.

Want something new from Sony? they announced Saros during the same state of play

They arent trolling because clowns are buying these products, supporting them.

Paying for patches has become normalised, by Sony and their fanboys.

Its beyond pathetic. And then you have people saying here (like the guy above me) why complain about it????? LMAO

Why complain about anything??? Just consume and move onto the next product guys!!!
