When Steam is handing out refunds without any questions whatsoever, you know you messed up lol

Viljong378d ago

Pc players actually though sony cares about pc gaming and will give it the best games masterfully ported. This port is a message from sony: get the ps5 and subscribe to psplus premium.

MadLad378d ago (Edited 378d ago )

You console only players are wild. You realize games like Returnal, God of War, Spiderman, Sack Boy, Days Gone; they all came out great.
HZD needed some patching, and this port is abysmal. It's also not the first time the company responsible put out abysmal ports to PC either. The Drake collection had a myriad of issues, and Arkham Knight, much like Last of Us here, is known as one of the absolute worst ports have seen. It's not self-sabotage, it's nepotism. They keep giving Iron Galaxy work partly because the owner has ties to Sony's gaming division so they get work seemingly for no real reason.

If you really think Sony is outright buying companies who specialize in porting games to PC, are paying outside companies to do port jobs, and are now eating the cost of every refund of Last of Us and that it's all just this mega brain level of 4D chess Sony is playing to get people to buy PS5s then I don't even know what to tell you.

"I know the games themselves never pushed these PC guys to buy a PS5, so what we'll do is make solid ports of many of our games, then screw it up so bad on one that they'll all run right out and buy a $500 piece of hardware to buy that one game. They'll also sign up for PS Plus, even though you can emulate virtually every past generation game on it for free, and almost every game on there is already on PC"

Yes. It all makes sense lol.
It's as I keep saying. Your average PlayStation player doesn't care that these games are coming to PC. It's the fanboys who can't get over it.

Like sony has said itself if you google for it. It only release some games on pc to lure pc players to playstation eco system. Usually the first part of franchise when the sequel is coming on playstation. Makes sense. When gow came to pc ps5 get the ragnarök etc. Sony want people to subscribe into psplus.

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast85d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs82d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast82d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs80d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast80d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer85d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6984d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs82d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6981d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger129d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt2385d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid129d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast128d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
