Two indie developers have clarified recent statements regarding PlayStation 4 Pro updates, confirming that teams are not allowed to charge customers for PlayStation 4 Pro features updates.
The developer of Garry's Mod has announced it is in the process of removing all Nintendo-related content from Steam Workshop after receiving a takedown request from Nintendo.
Remedy has made a couple of changes to its core management team with the goal to grow Alan Wake and Control into larger franchises.
CGM Writes: While we were over at PAX East, we were able to sit down with Goichi Suda (Suda51) and talk about the upcoming remaster of Shadows of the Damned
So much egg is about to be thrown lol
So you have a guy from Sony who says that it may cost money, then you have these indie devs saying they aren't allowed.. Would someone get their facts straight and tell the damn truth.
More work for developers. Im not liking where this is headed.
So in a nut shell.....the updates / upgrades to existing games cost the devs to make as it is extra work no matter if its small or large...its more work. Some would potentially like to charge for it but Sony is saying No, any upgrade to existing games or features upgrades that would be exclusive for PS4 Pro can't be charged for to the consumer....which likely means you aren't going to see many 3rd party games get "updates" that are already released. More likely it will be new games that get bumps as the cost can be part of the current development and not feel like an added expense.
"Just a better spec PS4."
"No complications."
"Just an option, it's better for everyone."
Oh man... I am enjoying every second of this. XD
