Good to hear, don't understand getting salty about a two year old game coming to a whole new market for the first time. I tried days gone through PS5 didn't really care for it, it was alright. Open world games aren't my thing anymore.

If winning means huge costs and crashing, and playstation exclusives many years later, then I guess pc gamers win. You do get the best graphics though.....

It did. Days Gone before first price-cut in June or July 2019 already had over 3+ million players.

I don't believe it's truth tho, because many people choose convenience of consoles. Me included and I am rocking RTX3090
(As a work card and while not doing ML, it nets me 50USD profit per day on nicehash.com)
I dont get it, you should get ~15$ on single gpu

I want to mock you, but I see you've already been tagged and I don't kick people when they're down.

Hmmm...as long as they don't do day and date Sony will still retain most of the value. I doubt when a blockbuster is releases people are going to wanna wait as long as these exclusives have taken to move to pc.
The time in between certainly seems to be getting shorter though.

It's gotten a bit better. A 3060 Ti averages 96 FPS at 1440/Ultra in HZD, based on some published benchmarks
But, yeah, the port was less than stellar, especially at launch. Looks gorgeous maxed out, though.

Bloodborne lmfao. They couldn't even bother to unlock the framerate and resolution for ps5 and you think they will suddenly have a dedicated team to port on pc.

Come back to this post, 6 months - a year, or a few months more, tops.

Cool. Just don't farm out the port to the same chop shop that did Horizon.
Souls games sell well on PC. PS5 upgrades aren't going to net them the few million more copies sold a PC version would also bring in. Especially when no one can even buy a PS5 lol.

Hey, its a win-win. If they port it to PC then they'll patch the original!
I'm good with that, its last-gen software you get access to as a perk of playing online on PS5... No biggy.

Guess I'd better tell my PC to be more expensive and crash more. It's not living up to the reputation with its 100% reliability and the fact that it didn't break the bank.

I genuinely for the life of me can't remember the last time my PC crashed. Such a lame excuse.

I don't see the problem here...
If 120+ million consoles sold, yet they only sell about 10 million (ish) of their first party games; obviously people aren't buying consoles just for first party games.
If people only play on PC and want to enjoy the games... All the power to them.
Edit: Lol at sitting at a monitor playing Animal Crossing... Have fun with that..

There are another ones like Journey, Heavy Rain, Detroit or Death StrandingAnother interesting thing is the release date delay between PS4 and PC:
- Horizon Zero Dawn: 3 years and 5 months
- Days Gone (assuming 31/03/2021 for PC): 1 year 11 months

They never relied on 1st party game sales. They make a lot of money with 1st party games, but the big majority of their money came from 3rd party games sales (and now from services like PS+ too).
To sell the games on PC is just an extra for them. Probably has more to do with an a strategy of releasing several old ports on PC to attract more users to PS5, and/or to include downloadable games on the PS Now PC client somewhere in the future.

Well they didn't say much about PSVR2. Pretty much the only thing they did say was that it .... would still be wired. Boo.
Out dated years before it even launches.

Too soon to tell. No next-gen MS games came out yet and no big releases for 2021. Besides, Activision and Take 2 started the price increase not Sony. 70$ will be the standard for next-gen. Demon's Souls was worth the 10$ to me.
The PS5 version will be the best version for the vast majority of people because they don't have powerful PCs and with the dual sense integration it's a much better experience.
I'm not waiting 2 or 3 years to play their games (or 8 years for TLOU).

Anyone that's still arguing and making the same type of arguments Xbox fans made when Phil started the slow roll out of the same strategy is fooling themselves that somehow it's gonna help.
Sony follows MS like when they followed XBL Gold with PS Plus. It's a duopoly market - you don't really have that much choice for mature console gaming. They both know that.
Both Jim Ryan, and Herman have made the decision internally now. A lot of folks are projecting what they wish the internal policy should be (old games etc).... but we know this is how it starts - and it ends with Day and Date/new exclusives. No need to come up with BS to excuse why you're still sticking to the PS platform as a main (mainly price, friends, library attachment, couch gaming).
As Jimmy boy said, he didn't hear no adverse reaction by the PS fans. In other words, folks are taking it in the behind no problem - according to him.
If you really wanted the practice to stop you should stop faking that you're cool "that other people get to experience great playstation games" when deep down you don't approve for reasons. Be honest, and blunt - why keep appearances on the internet? The problem regarding backlashes appears to be that as long as it doesn't hit your pockets fans don't mobilize. Something like doubling the price of a subscription service does but this type of topic does not. Instead you get a lot of virtue signaling for the inability to organize a response that can be loud enough and followed by others. It's the fear of being an outcast and ridiculed. In other words, they got you by the balls. Still, the best thing is to be honest about it. Unfortunately Nintendo is no substitute for mature console gaming. Wish they were about now like back in the old days. Easy no brainer switch.

Actual adults don't give a shit how many consoles a game launches on. Think about that for a moment.
The publishers will like the revenue increase though and I highly doubt they will lose console sales given PC players generally don't buy consoles for exclusives.

That's not how this works. You can't say the PC version will be inferior to the PS5 version just because most people have weak hardware in the PCs. Games have scalable graphics settings. They are developed for the absolute maximum that the graphics engine allows to the absolute minimum for older hardware. Whatever the maximum will be, it will most certainly either be the same or higher fidelity than the PS5. There has never been an ultra setting that's lower fidelity than a console except in some rare cases that presents a bug or an oversight from the development team.

Sony Japan had almost nothing to do with the game. They basically helped a bit with PR and tech but that's it.
SONY would need to get FromSoftware to patch it most likely

But, it never performed like last gen from a PC POV, it performed like 2 gens ago. You have to admit that 20-30 FPS is dogsht but perfectly acceptable to those who like it.

Spot on.

I see no problem with them releasing older games to PC. As long as they leave maybe 6-12month gap most PS fans should be ok. Good way of recouping more costs and widening your audience.
