The game is pretty good, fun and works well on PC. With friends, it has that little something extra that works really well and keeps you playing.
I wonder what Sony will do with this success. We know that the in-house studios are in dire straits because of the shift towards games services that management decided to make a few years ago, before reversing course. Now that one of their games on this model has worked, is it hard to believe that they’d be tempted to go back to choices that would put them back in trouble?

Maybe, but certainly not with the same eagerness they had before.
I doubt it, something like the last of us 2 sold more than 4 mil in its opening weekend, 10 mil lifetime. A million is nice, but it’s pretty average for a ps game.
I’m sure if the last of us multiplayer came out it would have been successful as well. I don’t think it’s necessarily about “Sony” but the individual studios. If the studios are working on something where their hearts not in it (naughty dog) it stifles creativity and quality.
In what sense? If it encourages them to do more live service shit, no. If it encourages them to release more on PC, yes.
Every AA game that blows peoples’ socks off is a win for gamers. Let’s get away from this 10-year, AAA dev cycle with shoehorned micro transactions and a ten year “live service” plan.
Why does a game get unusually popular every few months and this dumb question gets posed again?
The video game industry is worth about $180,000,000,000. This is nothing.
Of course it’s good They’re spending billions (literally, financial report is public) on GaaS to try and create what an AA just did !
It’s a fun game. I just wish it released in slightly more stable (I’m on Pc) but they have a fun game here and I wish them a shit ton of success, also they are working hard to resolve issues obviously
The issues are really a world apart from some AAA releases with far more budget
On pc its not good.
It has russian spyware KERNEL level anti cheat.
it’s good for PC users future. Sony was already making a small push onto PC and this proves there’s a market for them. let’s all just cross our fingers and pray they don’t make a Playstation storefront.
