If you are an independent developer, Sony wants you.
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.
It would be cool to have the dev kits for each platform and then make some awesome little games.
Sony is going all out to correct anything they did wrong last gen. Open arms for everyone this time.
It'll be really cool if PS4 could get games like minecraft with mods like Voltz and tekkit able to be added onto it.
They could get awesome mods like dayz and put it onto the ps4. Although having Dayz on the ps4 is wishful thinking.
Should look at the indie games coming for Vita its really impressive and its the perfect platform for it. Retro city rampage sold the most on Vita.

"Open arms for everyone this time."
Yep unlike some of Nintendos eShop policys. Sony did a pretty good job with indie devs this gen but the consoles extremely complex CPU caused them a ton of headaches.
