"Sony's Michael Denny has explained the reason why the company did not go with custom chips like the Cell processor. It's a known fact that the processor was difficult for a lot of developers to get the hang of and plenty of them complained that it was a lot of work for them to offload GPU tasks on the SPUs."
A new Fortnite leak shows another massive change coming to the game, and it might arrive with the next season.

Developers Are Lazy!
These devs are in it for the money like everyone else so whatever makes things easier for them is what it is. At least now ports across the Ps4 and Xbox will be identical for the most part which is good. Developers like Nd, SM, GG and Media Molecule will still be able to harness the power and do what they have to do with their engines.
Yeah but you gotta admit its a pretty smart move by Sony
It is lazy, because if you look at how many developers finally knew how to use the Cell. Almost all of them did, their was only some.
An I bet if Sony keep using the Cell, they would understand it more better and it be more easy to use.
Great move on Sony's part, the media can't get between the love of developers for a machine.
Something Sony felt the hard part of last generation, yet eventhough releasing exclusives that broke the visual barier over and over.
Can't see what happens next.
