As soon as Kena showed up and as soon as they won that award, this forum was awash with wishful posts asking Sony to buy Ember Labs.
Here’s yours.
Here, you acknowledge 6 acquisitions in 2021 and state that you expect even more from Sony in 2022. You’re even perfectly fine with thoughts of Sony buying Remedy. And you’re fine with them buying Kena even though it’s pitched as a timed-exclusive multiplatform IP, owned by Ember Labs.
So…acquisitions seem to be fine if Sony’s doing it, and it’s terrible if you buy a publisher with 8 sub-studios but perfectly fine to scoop up multiple studios piecemeal.
Imagine searching my post history and putting words in my mouth even with a print screen proving i didn't say any of that. Did you even read my post right?
You say and i quote "You’re even perfectly fine with thoughts of Sony buying Remedy". Where exactly did i write that i wanted ANY acquisition to happen on that post, let alone Remedy? I said and i quote "i do think Remedy
was once on their radar". How you went from that to "you're fine with Sony acquiring Remedy" i'll never know.
Realizing Sony will keep buying studios has also NOTHING to do with what i
wish for them to do. It's what i
think they will do. I never said "i hope Sony buys more studios" anywhere on that post.
That entire post you so proudly searched is just what i predict Sony to do and i stand by that entire post word by word.
One last thing, i don't like acquisitions. As someone that plays videogames and someone that plays on Playstation, i simply have no intentions of losing 3rd party IPs that i care about, specially from Square-Enix, Capcom, Konami. So if Sony acquires them, i wouldn't be happy for that. I would be simply relieved for the reason stated above.
Most of my posts talking about acquisitions are about what i predict these companies to do. Not me championing for them to happen.
