XboxEra Community Hangout |OT| Safe Space no longer required (Part 1)

You said just words. No idea what that meant lol

Probably has a meaning. I mean it’s Nier

Speaking of who is getting Nier day one? Still haven’t decided digital or disc…

I am pretty sure that nobody expects anything else than Persona. It is also one of those ideological conflicts between Playstation and Xbox owners. SMT I certainly don’t expect.

Ironically MS is doing that with Game Pass now, before their first party starting rolling out. I do wonder why the games leave Game Pass. Especially older ones, considering that they are not selling that much anymore…

But yes, I fully expect more expensive money hats for Sony. Also people won’t like them that much because they would feel like any money hat prevents the game from hitting the Game Pass.

There is no ideological conflict on PC. It is all about Xbox vs Playstation wars.

I do wonder if what is happening now is the same when Playstation entered the market - being a media giant in comparison to Nintendo and Sega at that time.

Tbh I don’t see any other big BIG money hats like FFXVI. I more so think Playstation will invest heavily in it’s already existing studios and build secondary studios out of it.

Despite what game would be realistic and would have great impact in the near future?

Hard to say. I think aside Square Enix and FF, no other game feels like Playstation game anymore. Then again, any new studio or dev can bring a masterpiece game that will sell like crazy. Whether it will be enough or not for Sony is hard to say, because - unlike Nintendo - they don’t make that many e-rated games at all to have that mass market support.

Spiderman has mass appeal

You said ā€œjust sayingā€ Then I made a joke like it was "just words we should not hype it, there’s nothing to it, we should be fine…:eyes: "

Spiderman is a single brand. Should they make deals for more Marvel characters? Will they continue making Spiderman games? Nothing of that is cheap and I suspect people will complain as ā€œthey own Spider man, we can’t have the game on Game Passā€

Nintendo is family friendly powerhouse that guarantees access for all ages - from young to old. Sony is not that like that.

Ratchet, Astrobot has big potential.

Insomniac will be a very important studio for Playstation.

Regardless xbox isn’t the best with e-rated content as well

I know that Xbox has issues with that, but Xbox has just started and Big Phil mentioned that issue multiple times already. It will be addressed. One way or another.

As I mentioned before, I fully expect Sony trying to pivot to be more like Nintendo - self sufficient only on its own output, without third party games (but getting IPs from movies or anime for example). Movies, anime, games. Synergy! It is already trying to position itself like ā€œelite place of gamingā€ while Xbox is trying to position itself as ā€œaccessibleā€ place of gaming. Interesting dynamic.

RDX Podcast is also gonna have Jeff Grubb there, Xbox Era to lose the exclusivity :slightly_smiling_face::
