Oh please no. I'm not going to buy an overpriced console just to play their future games.
You could always sail the high seas
The high seas for a PlayStation 6 exclusive release? First, might be a while before piracy on a new console is a viable option, second, an emulator won't be able to run it for years.
You won't be able to pirate the PS6. Not unless technology gets really fucking gnarly by the time it releases so you can download hardware. You'd have to rely on real theft.
Can't really pirate a game on PC if it's never released on PC.
Not true. Plenty of Switch exclusives emulate super well on PC.
There's a massive difference between a Switch and a Playstation. We're nowhere near emulation of a PS5, and knowing Sony they would have FromSoftware make a launch title for the PS6.
It's going to be many many years before we see a PS6 emulator. We're only just starting to get Bloodborne (PS4) working on PC now
Oh boy do I gotta tell you about something crazy...
Is it how there still isn't a good enough PS4 emulator on PC to play Bloodborne at 60 fps?
FUD means "Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt." I'm not following how you think that's what's happening here? I mean, I think you're accusing the Kodokawa execs of bullshitting, but what they're expressing is the opposite of FUD.
Oh man, people really just repeat phrases without actually understanding what they mean. It's very fucking annoying. I've also seen people refer to literally anything they don't think is funny as boomer humor, even if it's like a Gen Z meme.
I also hate that phrase. It encourages you to blindly follow instead of wisly questioning
Oh, yeah, it's use in the crypto space is absolutely part of cult conditioning. Any reality check, any sensible question, any appeal to reason, it's all FUD. Only blind unquestioning faith in the rapture... I mean TO THE MOON... is acceptable.
The article is from eurogamer so you have to temper your expectations of the literacy of the readership.
Huh? The hell are you talking about? The article doesn't mention FUD once....OP said that...
Given the upvote I'm guessing the two of you are part of the aforementioned eurogamer readership...
You okay man? I think you should see a neurologist. You don't seem coherent.
Thank you so much for your concern and apologies in advance. Im well aware I need to work on dumbing down my writing to be accessible to everyone. Sorry for my ableism, I promise to work on myself to be more inclusive. Again, apologies if I made your head hurt, that was not at all my intention. I hope you have a splendid weekend.
Damn dude. Do you work for the circus? I think you could be the lead clown. You'd thrive in that job.
Thank you, appreciate your compliment, It's a pleasure to be a source of entertainment. I used to train chimps, perhaps that's where my talent to amuse primates derives from. Always nice to feel appreciated, thanks stranger.
Np man. You might want to also consider joining the chimps. I'm sure you would be fed well and someone might actually be able to train you to make hand signals and shit. I think you could really benefit.
Well, this is disappointing, is this the best you can muster? A "no u"? I guess you're part of the Eurogamer readership after all. Don't forget to take your meds. Have a great weekend, Bobo.
Better title: Kadokawa employees are reportedly "optimistic" about the takeover. Subtitle: Kadokawa owns FromSoftware
Kadokawa suffered a ransomware cyberattack earlier this year, but employees were left disappointed by the response from current president and CEO Takeshi Natsuno.
As a result, employees are said to be "thrilled at the prospect of an acquisition by Sony", according to a new report from Japanese outlet Bunshun (via Automaton).
HAAHAHAHA, Oh The Onion, you guys are... It's not The Onion... (for anyone that doesn't get it, PSN has been hacked a couple of times)
Anyway, the "thrill" comes from the expectation that the current Kadokawa leadership will get the boot from the acquisition.
Sony wants a monopoly on the anime. From software is just a bonus
They buy it, make Bloodborne 2 and make it a PS exclusive, then disolve the company entirely as a giant "fuck you" to PC players.
you jest but this is honestly what is likely going to happen.
I'm not jesting, I know they will do it. Bloodborne is a literal goldmine. They could've ported to PC and swam in money. By now it's probably too late to do that, most of the hype went away. But a Bloodborne 2? Yah.
site blocked for work, but are they actually thrilled or "fucking thrilled"? haha
I would imagine, shitheads at a huge company excited they can hoard even more money?
Sounds about right.
Is also like how nobody ever mentions anything but from software.
Like this isn't a gigantic conglomerate basically owning the Japanese anime industry.
