"Sony's PERFECT Response!" | PS5 Fanboys are in Denial about Microsoft Buying Activision Blizzard...

  • The News of The Microsoft/Xbox Acquisition of Activision Blizzard literally shookup the very foundation of the video game industry in ways we cannot even imagine yet. Not only is this the largest video game acquisition of all time, it is also the largest technology acquisition of all time demonstrating just how massive this merger is between Microsoft Gaming and Activision, the world's largest third party video game developer. Ever since this news broke playstation fanboys have been on the damage control war path proclaim absolutely absurd statements like "Call of Duty is Dead anyway" or that no one cares about any of Activision's games which is a complete cope and seethe moment on the behalf of salty playstation fans. Does this mean that PS5 will lose Activision Games like Call of Duty Warzone? Probably not in the short term but no one can say whether or not Microsoft will make all Activision and all Blizzard Games Exclusive to Gamepass Platforms like Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and the PC.

      But it honestly wouldn't surprise me if Bungie games (excluding already released games) become exlcusive to PS. IMO, it's Sony and their terrible about multiplat games. (PC's pretty much the only other platform they have ever put their own games, with maybe a select few on Xbox/Switch that I can't think of atm.) I don't mind exclusivity, but I hate when companies say that "they won't be exclusive" then turn around and do the complete opposite, and at this point, it's completely expected from Sony.

    Let's be serious now. Sony isn't leaving it multi platform because they all of a sudden decided to not be pieces of shit and screw people over.
    I don't have any issues with companies that "own" studios that make games an exclusive. I don't like it when companies do this but I get it. What I really hate and 100% won't support is when companies pay 3rd party studios to gate off games and content to people by making them exclusive. To me, that's fucking bullshit.
    If you built your studio or acquired a studio, it's yours, right or wrong, nice or not nice, do what you want. You own it.
    Sony more than anybody by a mile has proven time and time again that they don't give a shit about players with all their paid timed exclusive bullshit with 3rd party games.
    The 1 and only 1 reason Sony said that Bungie games were staying multi platform was because they 100% don't want to lose Call of Duty. Hands down. Its not rocket science.
    By acting first, Microsoft has essentially put Sony in check mate for any purchase they do now or in the future that has a big name I.P. included with it. They buy a big name IP and say its exclusive, Microsoft says fuck you and yanks Call of Duty. Period.
    Had Sony made the first move with buying Bungie and nobody had a clue about Microsoft acquiring Activision, then I think everybody in the world knows that Sony would've made every single game Bungie owns exclusive 10 seconds after the purchase, because thats what they do.
    That all being said, this MGB dude or whatever his name is, is a complete fucking moron and I can't stand to even listen to his pathetic voice for more than 10 seconds so I'm outta here. Have a good one.

This deal was in the making for months as evident by destiny's sudden pull from game pass a little bit ago. Sony needed a steady source of income, bungie had that source but bungie wasn't going to give them any unless it was on their terms, not Sony.

Overall gameplay was solid though, especially the combat and general exploration, so it wasn't a deal breaker for me.

They have largely been releasing games for Playstation though, particularly with Ratchet and Clank and Resistance, so yeah it didn't make as much of a difference.

    As a gamer who plays on all platforms, I just don't see the big deal with exclusives they're fun at first but when you beat them what more can you do. Wait for 5-6 years for the next installment to come out. I love gaming as a whole I'm not a fanboy but I enjoy my Xbox series S more. Game pass is the best I enjoy it so much it's so many games to play and have fun with plus Xbox has the greatest backward compatibility games lineup I've ever seen it's so nostalgic. This generation I'm going with Xbox.

    As much as I’m excited for forbidden west, it won’t compare to the acquisition. I mean I played horizon zero dawn on pc. Great game. But if activison can get their crap together they can top that. The only reason I’m dusting my ps4 pro off the shelf after 3 years is only because of forbidden west. I’ll play it like 3 times but after that it’s back on the shelf. That’s the only thing holding the fanboys together. Without their exclusives their lives are over. If forbidden eat comes to pc in a year or two I’m gonna laugh because then I’m going to play it 5 times because it looks 3 times better than the ps5 and 6 times better than the ps4 pro

    In my humble honesty, Horizon Zero Dawn, after playing it on the PC, felt very underwhelming. Not because of the port and it's condition.
    The reality I got from it is pretty different from the hype train alot of PS4 fans rode when it was released in 2017. Story and combat is good yeah, but the characters were pretty bland, Aloy felt more like a downgraded version of Geralt of Rivia but her sarcasm don't click, the open world is too open and pretty empty in my opinion, doing all the 'Collectibles' isn't considered good content. Npcs acting and the side quests are mediocre at best. The DLC was better, but im not very optimistic about the next entry, at least to me.

    • @cyrilA.

      Yeah I fell so too.. I bought Horizon last year on PC so I can make my own thoughts.. it was my most boring game of that year and I payed 49€.. Days Gone was better but I don't know the brutal slow paste of these games like RDR2.. I can't play..
      Than I played GoW.. combat it great loved it and the scene with Baldur war great too but it was a Scene.. only 3 main enemy types like really?? They had different elements but still.. just the flying ones the draugr and Orgs that's it for "best game of generation" I expect more !! Story was ok but I hate Arteus he's annoying 😅.. so I think they just hyped everyone up so they make there mind oh yeah it is that good it was good for 30€ a great value but 60 ? Way to much for me

      Congrats fellas you came to the sad reality I came to in 2018 or whenever GoW ps4 came out. I’m no fanboy grew up with everything from the GameCube to cheap swap meet emulators and traded in my xbone for a ps4 pro to play GoW. Never beat it owned horizon and days gone. Damn near the same gameplay loop in both those games… also the same gameplay loop in a lot of AAA games but these are exclusive so they’re better right?

    • @TheStraightestWhitest
      @TheStraightestWhitest 2 роки тому +1

      Welcome to reality. As a PC and PS owner myself, I never understood the hype either. GOW4 was impressive visually and technically, but mediocre to downright bad where acting and writing was concerned. A solid, above average game, but not a console decider. Horizon is the same. Impressive visually, managed to play smoothly somehow even on the Pro, but nothing worth buying a console over. Never had any interest in its sequel since they went woke, so I can't speak for that. Days Gone again has the same issue as the other two though. Good technical side, great gameplay, but atrocious story and characters. Uncharted bored my head off and I stopped at the first game 30% in. The fourth was downright horrible. TLOU1 did the reverse of all the other exclusives and had incredible writing, but god-awful gameplay. Its sequel is literally the worst game ever. Demon's Souls was just good looking but horrible playing Dark Souls. Eclipsed in every field even visuals by Elden Ring, which is multiplatform. What else is there? Ah yes:
      Bloodborne was the reason I bought my Pro in 2018. At its core it is a great game, but hindered by garbage performance. Atrocious frame rate, horrible quality of life. Zero replay value as a result. Underwhelming. With a half remake/remaster to bring all the quality of life that DS3, Elden Ring and Sekiro had, this could be a gem though. Seems Sony doesn't care to hire anyone to do it however, probably since it didn't sell crazy good.
      So that's just about it. There's no other exclusives worth talking about. Most are 6/10 games. Solid, but heavily flawed. Two of them are outright garbage.
      I never understood why Sony fanboys hyped these games so much. None of them are worth buying a PS console over.

    • @TheStraightestWhitest
      @TheStraightestWhitest 2 роки тому +1

      Your doubt was justified. Elden Ring has eclipsed Forbidden West completely. I legit have to look up videos about it to see a single thing of it, and they're at like 30k views from weeks ago where Elden Ring content gets 200k views in 6 hours and spams my notifications with shorts. It's sold 6 times better than Forbidden West and is received better than any game to date, whereas Forbidden West has had a common positive reception, nothing special.
      Hell, I see more about Dying Light 2 from small Polish Techland than I do about Forbidden West. Wouldn't be surprised if their sales figures were similar or even higher either.
