In one where GoW sells like over 5 times more than Demon's Souls, showing it's more appealing to more people.

In this one. Ragnarok has way more mass appeal, and I agree with it wholeheartedly. Souls games aren’t fun IMO.

Death Stranding literally won over Miles Morales on Twitter. Bold of you to assume that most of the people voting in that poll are actual Sony fans, though.

Sony fanboys most of the time behave like this, so no surprises.
Having a discussion in the PS5pro thread for example is like talking to a wall.

Returnal is an actual game, so can't say I'm surprised it lost out in the first round.

My final would be TLoU II vs GOW18.
TLoU II is the winner in the end. Special mention for Ghost of Tsushima. Honestly, Sony has soo many bangers that there is no one right answer.

TLOU lost to Miles Morales, that list has no credibility whatsoever to me.

For me would be GoW 2018
Not sure why Spiderman is so popular. I enjoyed Starfield more than Spiderman, and I never finished Starfield due to boredom.

sm2 and ragnarok are sbi ruined games. Terrible narratives and characters. (edit: that is not debatable. They worked with sbi to get government money from esg)
gow 2018 is great.
SM1 I've not played... looks boring but I wouldn't know.
edit: all that aside - gow 2018 is just a better game than ragnarok

ESG is for the parent company's stocks. So this would affect every game on that list.

I wept for hardcore gaming if the cringe ass fedex simulator is considered the hardcore option here

Only an idiot wouldn't think that God of War is the most popular franchise of Playstation.

The old style had 6 games. It was time to move on. The 2 games we have gotten since have been great, but the lack of epic setpieces is something that can be fixed later. Overall, the games are far deeper, have better level design and storytelling. The are simply lacking in those epic moments and setpieces which is disappointing but not a deal breaker.

What Spider-Man? The recent ones?
Not all the old Spider-Man, even from Activision, did so well. Only Insonmiac nailed the IP on gaming.
God of War in the other hand was huge back in PS2 era.

They didnt want to add bloodborne because they knew it would sweep to the top
They wanted an even fight

What was exactly hardcore in that game?
The game was easy af and 9\10 of the mechanics were half cooked, combat and boss fight were terrible, and people built highways and shit to avoid dealing with the annoying walking part.
Was the plot that make the game hardcore? Because gameplay wise almost every game in existence is more hardcore than ds...

Spider-Man in games existed long before Sony started to make games dude.
And when I talk about GoW, I talk since PS2 to PS5. GoW is the most popular IP on Sony.

If i say underlying systems, you will get triggered so i will just say that it won the most GOTY awards that year even though it went up against goty contenders like RE2, Sekiro, Control, Star Wars jedi survivor, DMC5 etc.

but it wasn't in effect in 2018. Other than that you are correct.
well... to be precise, ESG is a thing after 2018. so games released in 2018-2019 are still not affected.
After that, they got tons of dev money for good esg scores and they had to hire consulting firms and so on. That's why many of those games are so influenced

That is not an answer, not that i was actually expecting an actual explanation of what make that thing an hardcore title when the gameplay systems were so half cooked and the level of challenge was hilariously low.
All the titles you listed are far more hardcore than ds is ever gonna be.
And no, some clunky inventory management or throwing piss granades at ghosts was not hardcore gaming.

huh?
You have:
1) Survival Horror third person Shooter
2) Open world action adventure superhero game
3) Metroidvania action adventure/hack and slash
4) Racing game
5) Souls like hack and slash RPG
6) Open world action adventure hack and slash
7) open world action adventure bow and arrow shooter.
8) open world action adventure walking simulator
9) rouge like third person shooter
10) Kiddie action adventure shooter.
The only popular genre they dont have is a first person shooter and a WRPG. But honestly, im glad Insomniac and GG left Resistance and KZ behind. You cant do much with the FPS genre nowadays. COD is exactly where it was 20 years ago save for a battle royale mode made popular by two third person games.
I do hope they make an RPG and kill Ratchet forever. You dont need another third person shooter in the action adventure genre on playstation.

I said hardcore in comparison to a fucking Miles DLC. Spiderman is like casual Arkham. Both in terms of combat and puzzles. Forget about the metroidvania design of those games that insomniac thinks casuals are too stupid to play. Even the combat is dumbed down. Only ratchet is less hardcore than miles and thats a kids game that also dumbed down the puzzles to attract casuals.
meanwhile, the walking sim that you described as easy was anything but. it gets easier later on yes, but it is legitimately a very hard game and every single reviewer said that its not for everyone because of that initial difficulty.

Three Spiderman games
Two God of Wars
Two Horizon games
Two Last of Us games
In the old days this would’ve been 16 different franchises battling.
It really shows how safe the AAA industry needs to be, and how studios are stuck making the same games.

You were going pretty well until the very hard game part.
I'm literally gonna sideeye any decent player that had any problem whatsoever with that game other than the first couple of hours because you have to digest the new mechanics.
Also, fucking lmao at even bringing modern journalist as a proof that the game was hard, like are you for real man?
If that is a very hard game i have no idea how you can play any other game on more than easy mode...
At least challenge wise, Miles on max difficulty that you unlock after the first run is harder than anything inside ds by a landslide.

The sequelitis is bad yes, but cant ignore other games like returnal, death stranding and ghost of tsushima. the era in discussion had just one real sequel from the the previous gen, TLOU. GOW was a designed from a ground up reboot. Spiderman 2 was an existing IP in name only. horizon was a new IP. GoT new IP. Death stranding and returnal also new IPs. Of course, they were going to release sequels for them. The next era begins next year as Bluepoint, SSM, ND, Bend and their newly acquired studios begin to release new IPs they have all confirmed to be working on. The only sequels on the horizon are Spiderman 2, Horizon 3, GoT 2 and Death stranding 2. That means the vast majority of the games set to release in the next 4-5 years are going to be new IPs.
their output diversity is still better than any other publisher including ubisoft, activision, ea, ms and take2. only nintendo has more diversity but honestly, aside from zelda, its mostly all B games or AA games. i wouldnt pick a single non-zelda nintendo game over these sony aaa games.

Dude, everyone struggled with the opening world. Maybe you played the game after the directors cut when they added the exo-skeleton suit in the first world but that was not there at launch, and the game was brutal because you had no guns, no exo-suit, no vehicles, or ziplines. that came in the second world. I am glad you didnt have a hard time but virtually everyone who played it did.
