Because Sony is quite successfully killing video games by pretending Cinematic Experiences are mature while gameplay is for children.

Also they're pushing the mediabox just like Microsoft did, but it's OK when Sony does it.

People with a PS4 play different kinds of games anon. So sales are spread out. I'll pop in Senran Kagura and Gravity Rush and hours later play some Wolfenstein. Its those people who play Madden, Fifa, and COD which refuse to play anything different.

People specifically buy a Nintendo consoles for Mario Kart, but I doubt the majority of them have even heard of Platinum games.

In no world ever is a third party game going to sell as much as Smash or Mario Kart on a Nintendo system. Never ever, it's not possible.
Pretty sure Bayo 2 is in like, the top 15 of WiiU game sales, so I don't see why you'd say people don't buy good games. It's not like the WiiU has a large install base.

>>339803717
It doesn't have a large install base, and Nintendo has problems localizing games to the region because they're specifically worried about sales. Fatal Frame was digital for a reason. Even some games on the Wii had Nintendo fans begging for it to be localized.

Nintendo fans really need to check themselves when they claim Sony fans don't buy games.

Get on my level Nerds.

Most PS4 games I have are weeb stuff but it would be great if Sony could be assed to redo some of their older series like Ratchet & Clank did.
Why not just give Twisted Metal to the makers of Rocket League? That would kick ass if they could do that.

"Weebshit is a term used as cannon fodder, shitposting, moving goal posts, and an attempt to whittle an upcoming list to nothing so shitposters can force the "nogames" meme.

how about also removing every single kickstarter and early access game? It's just embarassing how shit the PC development ethos has become.

Why expose that shame?

15 years ago we had amazing Mech Warrior and Commander games. Nowadays the former is F2P shit and the latter is a fucking kickstarter. They are a perfect representation of most current PC exclusives.

It's funny to me how popular genres like survival games pretend like it's hard to develop and how this is the only way to make games nowadays, and yet more niche genres like RTS and grand strategy like DoW3, Gothic Armada or TW Warhammer still get made the normal way.

Tumbling down~~

That's because the developers/publishers of those games have fuckloads more money to play with, Kickstarter and Early Access enable devs to operate outside the traditional box, which sometimes doesn't work out well (Wreckfest, Spacebase DF9) but I think it has more successes than failures, assuming you only pay attention to things that actually looked promising to begin with.

SE literally said as much. Their Jap side still makes multiple console games only because the PS4 is so successful.

Nothing needs fixing. It specifically states "releases". It was released on sony systems exclusively, then 2 quarters later comes to PC. That's all well and good, win-win for everyone.
Still coesn't change the list. Same with Salt&Sanc.

>KS and EA enable devs to operate outside the traditional box
Not a valid excuse. Plenty of console games like pic related are made by very small AA studios, or indie studios, with little budget and quite a lot of the have absolutely no mainstream appeal, they are weird, quirky, deviate from the norm and aim for a 10k-30k niche. Yet they don't need to use KS or EA.

If there were no indies or AA's on consoles then you'd have a point. But there are a shit ton, and the % of KS/EA console games is much MUCH lower than the % of KS/EA PC games.

Most of the time KS games promise the world and deliver on nothing (HyperLight for example) or ask for millions and then STILL get a publisher, making KS completely redundant and simply robbing people out of their money.
Same with EA, only the minority, the absolute exception, makes them right. The vast majority puts their game on EA, do their best to fix crashes, sometimes add a cash-shop (lol) and leave it at that, never truly finishing the game, they just pretend like the current state of the game is their "final vision" and leave it there because the cash is already in their pockets.

Those two platforms are used and abused way too regularly. Most devs are shit at management too, so they burn money quick, like StarCitizen and many others.

There is simply no excuse to support those platforms. It just spawns more KS/EA/F2P shit, that's why literally half of all PC exclusives are like that nowadays. You help devs being lazy greedy fucks and guess what happens? They get lazy and greedy.

That shit is Japanese though, development works differently over there (I'm sure funding options are much different)

Crowdfunding is actually a completely new paradigm of game development, some games simply could not exist if it weren't for it. You can't argue against this. Sometimes publishers end up funding the games still because they see that people were willing to donate to an idea for a game, which obviously means there's a market for said game.

EA though, yeah that is abused fairly commonly but it's a good idea and works well when used how it's meant to be used -- to allow buyers to test games as they're developed and suggest changes. Still a good thing on the whole. It's immoral to let a sucker keep his money, after all.

Some good stuff came from Early Access though, there is a lot of trash inbetween the good stuff, but if it allows for more creative freedom why not?

Grim Dawn was in Early Access and is a good game now, Divinity Original Sin is one of the best WRPG in ages and went through kickstarter, there is a lot of dumb shit on those platforms, but just completely ignoring those games potential is wrong too.

They are both wonderful services, the problem is that only 1 out of 20 games has developers with genuine intentions, good enough management skills and realistic expectations.

The other 19 have huge egos, spend resources (both money and time) unwisely, and inflate their goals to unrealistic standards (5 more characters xDD Boss rush mode xDD 20400 person online co-op xDD, etc)

And it's always a coin flip. Even if you 100% trust a programer or a lead designer on the team a lot of thing can still go wrong, mostly to do with bad management/expectations/ego. And KS games with stupid bloated extra goals are also usually the ones that get the most attention, the platform encourages that flashy behavior.

Even if you only support the good projects (which only happens if you are a time-traveler and know in advance which ones are ShovelKnight or FTL god-tier, and which ones are MN9 or HLD scams to avoid) you still call attention to the platform those games spawned from. It gets the eyes of every eveloper out there, they stop trying the harder and better "normal" get-a-publisher path and do the lazy greedy thing instead.

Like you said, the example I gave was japanese, yes. Look at this picture >>339807460 and count the ammount of AA games on the top, it's 80% of the list. Most of them with 1 million budget at best, which quite a few KS projects exceed or get close to. If the japanese can do it, why can't western devs?

The solution would be to get AA publishers, not just AAA. More stuff like NIS/Atlus (localization shenanigans aside) but for west devs.

In my yuropoor country the best way as an indie/AA is actually to contact Sony. They are actually helpful, but there needs to be more options.

>there is a lot of dumb shit on those platforms, but just completely ignoring those games potential is wrong too.
But the opposite also happens. Devs that actually have a perfect chance at getting a publisher don't even try that route any more.

>>339802265
It's just so weird to me that people these days think that the Japanese game industry is stagnating when it obviously still results in ten times the number of interesting games as the western industry.
The west only has indies, and those aren't really part of the industry, they're just people that make games.

Sony does the same in Japan, which is why Sony systems become a haven for niche Japanese games. Nintendo in Japan only cares about big third-party support whereas Sony is pretty much everywhere with their support.

>>339816139
Even in stagnated form, Japan is doing better games than west in its peak form. It's tragic and it goes to show just how hard Japan used to steamroll everything in the 90's and early 00's. Big budget productions and heavy marketing wasn't their thing though and they fell behind as western industry basically became Hollywood in mass productions and massive advertising campaigns that drove AA devs into bankruptcy.

yeah, last year they had a contest specific to my country, and they do the same with others.

50k € in financial support, they also take care of marketing and give you facilities for a year. It was aimed at uni students or small studios with no publisher.

I also contacted the local MS and they don't have any program whatsoever, nor are they interested. Sony, even outside that contest, kept my contact and gave the time of their day for an interview.

I forgot to add that if you are in any way interested in developing a game for (or simply porting to) PSVR they'll support the shit out of you, give you a key to a dev-only forum, lend you their QC team, and send devkits.

It might just be for this initial push, but its still a nice gesture.
