Good luck trying to sell me this shit in 2023, Square.
Tetris Effect had 3 exclusivities in total.So FF7R is PS4 exclusive, then a new version that is also exclusive, then port it to pc as an Epic exclusive.
Is this a new record in number of exclusivities in a game? Or that goes to Tetris Efect?
MS was 6 monthsYeah, Tetris Effect is up there. PS4 for a year, Epic for a year, Oculus Quest somehow squeezed in there, and Microsoft for a year with exclusive MP. I'm surprised Stadia didn't get a taste.
This just keeps pissing me off. I played the game on PS4 and can then play Intergrade on my PS5, but I'd rather play it on PC.
I think it's more built on a series of misunderstandings of how basically every single business relationship works. Most of the complaints seem to boil down to "Valve isn't running an independently vetted equal-opportunity charity". I mean, it would be nice if they did, but no one else is either and you can't legally force them to do that.The whole Wolfire vs Steam case feels like it's completely built on misinformation...
It worked for Sony though, they got you to buy the game on a platform other than the one you wanted to. Sadly they don't care if they're pissing you off as long as they're getting money out of you.
Square respecting the hell out of their PC userbase, as always.
I played it on PS in order to not cave in on EGS.
Wait, I think I missed that. Was it announced for EGS?
No, but sadly everything points to that.
Both. People defending FFXII selling at 50 bucks, people who tell others to buy N:A anyway, this sort of stuff. The gaming community is working against itself but that isn't a first and a lot of the people defending this stuff are actually console players.It works for them.
They treat pc customers like garbage and when they eventually release their games people flock to buy them (at a ridiculous price most of the times mind you), so what kind of message do you think that sends them? Who is doing the wrong thing here?
My son and his friends are 9 years old so they started gaming recently, including fortnite. For them that's how things work, there's no barrier of entry to play a game, and if they like it, they stick around and buy useless in-game crap. They still don't have the perception of how outragous the prices are considering what you're getting for your money, but they are formatted to expect gaming to function like this. Giftcards they get on their birthday, etc go straight into fortnite or rocket league, buying other games doesn't even cross their minds.
I'd say this is the worst thing ever considering what's new can't be disabled.Or the best new feature Valve has implemented in recent years:
"What's new".
God damn, RE8 is 80 euros on Steam? What the fuck? And lol @ thinking Re:Verse will sell at that price too.... Edit: Maybe I got it wrong, that's how they showed in releases but it seems that price is a bundle for 7 & 8. And there's also a bundle for 8 & Re:Verse for 59.99. Steam is being weird in displaying that stuff I guess...

Ah, thanks. Well hopefully it will escape Tim's clutches somehow.

Swearing is acceptable, it might even help you relaxEdit: remove swearing to maintain civility
no need to hold backlol
Sega really makes my blood boil lately.Swearing is acceptable, it might even help you relax![]()
Between Pedestrian, Streets of Rage 4 and Village on PC, Returnal and Demons on PS5 my plate is packed.
How is Returnal? I am quite fond of roguelikes, should I keep it in mind if it ever comes to PC?
I mean, there were winstore and steam icons in the Judgement 1 page (that was probably due to using some template but still. ...).SEGA unironically announced Judgment 2 for Steam before Judgment 1
Yup. PC gamers reward them for being treated like garbage. I have no words.It works for them.

Its a lose-lose situation. If you buy anything you are rewarding them even if they threat you like garbage, if you don't buy anything they'll have the excuse to just stop port new games. As a customer you can't win whatever you do, only thing that probably send a message is to express dissent...nothing moreYup. PC gamers reward them for being treated like garbage. I have no words.
Bless the author of the Lazy FoV mod for RE8, without it I wouldn't be able to play it.
Maybe it's my old age, but I'm so weary of "consumers" getting blamed for stuff like this. Companies will continue to do stupid self-centered shit no matter what individuals do. You just can't win. It's the same thing with EGS exclusivity -- when a game comes to Steam, I feel gross buying it. But on the other hand, if it doesn't sell on Steam, does that send a good message? It's almost like we're all forced to participate in systems that don't benefit us. On the other hand, it also feels so good to rage at people supporting shit company decisions, so I definitely feel you here.It works for them.
