While many might assume Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale is Sony's answer to Nintendo's Super Smash Brothers series, that is far from the truth. In fact, PSAS has its own merits that should be appreciated before making a judgment call; this article discusses what fans might be missing when they dismiss PSAS too soon.
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.

The problem people had was calling it a complete clone, but calling it Sony's answer to smash bros is something i agree with.
Devs back in the day tried to take on Mario with platformer games of their own. Those games were each companies answer to Mario.
I don't think this game is a clone. It borrows. Let's not dive into fandom here, ok. It borrows, but to say that this game was made without the intention of taking on smash bros is absurd.
This is certainly Sony's answer to smash bros. Don't get that confused with it being called a clone.
While love playstation and its characters the most I felt that all stars was a big disappointment due to a lackluster story a boring arcade, no uulnlockable characters,and buggy online I literally was bored with the game day one.
