Capitalism is a bad MF.

But we all do it. I’m not gone lose sleep over it. I’ve been on both sides myself. I’ve been the young guy that got an opportunity and the vet that got thrown out.

What i do know is there’s always another tech job, i’ve always landed on my feet and i’m sure the people with “microsoft” on their resume will be just fine. Lots of them will find other positions at microsoft :ehh:

So you lied to them just like Phil spencer :smh:

Like they did with concord and redfall??? :huhldup:

It is. You don’t.

I don’t believer your lies because you are very inconsistent with your “concern”

But you will defend one that spends 10 billion on acquisitions then cans a bunch of people :usure:

Yes you move very different depending on who you are talking about :ehh:
The difference is I have no issue expressing my dislikes on things that sony has done. I've expressed many times that I didn't like the Bungie purchase. I've said Sony should probably just take over the studio and right the ship (as they're doing with Marathon and other Bungie Projects)

I'm not losing sleep over it, but I'd be damn if I signed on to say "well people get fired everyday" in attempt to defend some giant corp.

What Sony did with Concord is nasty, hopefully they learned from that when trying to course correct with Marathon

shuhei was talking about how many games got cancelled at Sony both behind the scenes and before launching, and most of the times after years of work.



Crickets...from the Sony Stan gallery.
So, you're annoyed that people aren't reacting to games that were never known or shown being cancelled?

U serious rn bro?

Not longer than a month ago shuhei was talking about how many games got cancelled at Sony both behind the scenes and before launching, and most of the times after years of work.

The icing on the cake was the year and a half of hyping up the game, arguing how it was technically a Sony exclusive since they published it and supported it, and laughing about how the only PlayStation publish games Sony have released on Xbox was because they were forced too legally and that Sony themselves aren't going to put their games on Xbox.

:mjlol:




We the crazy ones though :heh:
Yes.

You must have missed the conversation around The Last of Us MP spinoff that Sony fukked up.

Handwaiving near 10000 folks being laid off cause you get to play helldivers is crazy.

Again, if your “concern” was a moral one about jobs and studios lost, there’s no way you could be a fan of sony.

You are doing the “that was different” dance here for whatever reason. Thats on you :manny:

I'm a fan of the product. Not the corp.

That's the difference between what I stan, and what you stan.

I see a studio get closed, I'm upset the studio is closed along with the product being produced.

You see a studio closed, you are happy cause M$ saved some money.

Thread title hasn't changed fam. Might want to read the posts again.

Your post in the Sony closing studios and fireing people thread

Everyone is rich and can afford a 1500+ PC (and upgrades over the next 2-3 years). Consoles are obsolete. No console after PS2 has mattered.

Sony is dead and 90% of folks in here anticipated it back in 2010 or some shyt.



:yeshrug:
Very notable lack of concern and disdain for sony. You even mocked people who may have had those feelings.

I wonder why :lupe:

“they do matter”

After a dozen posts cracking jokes and laughing at the situation.

Sure buddy. :mjlol:
@gurf I personally appreciate you trying to be objective at times these days but you wasn't trying to be that previously so your stanisms still shine thru but you are trying :handshake:

Meach is just having his way with that "flaw" in your online persona, its hilarious. Don't mind me, please continue :youngsabo:
