Competing is haaard, you guys.
Well, Fromsoft had a good run.
Maybe we’ll get one more game out of them.
just hope its not some live service pvp extraction/br soulslike with a mandatory psn account
If Sony buys Kadokawa Corporation. Sony will have a near stranglehold on so many industries. It’s insane. https://en.namu.wiki/w/KADOKAWA
I do love gaming just getting bought out by the same 4 shitty companies.
The live music industry would be so happy about such an abundance of competition
Oh, it’s not just gaming
Fuck off Sony
Feels like everything from Japan either belongs to Sony or Kadokawa already. If this goes through, Sony will will pretty much own everything made in Japan. Not just Elden Ring, but all sorts of stuff from Rpg Maker to a ton of anime.
Got it. Rykard (Sony) Lord of Blasphemy is trying to devour Godwin (Kadokawa) Scion of the Golden Lineage. It’s even lore accurate, let’s hope it stops before the Night of Black Knives.
Oh, great, more exclusives to cement Sony dominance.
Yep, and I’m still never buying a Playstation. Not worth chasing exclusives when there are plenty of good games on PC.
Anything Sony is burned forever to me since they pulled that Rootkit shit a few decades ago.
Its annoying, but someone has to compete against Microsoft. MS is buying everything in preparation for the streaming era and we need a company that’s big enough to offer a second service. And to everyone praising the gamepass, as soon as MS beats Sony, they’ll increase the prices AF.
Would help if Microsoft actually releases some games every now and then and not shut down the studios that bring success
This is way more than just competing against MS because Kadokawa is way more than a game publisher. Reuters framing it from a FromSoftware perspective makes the issue seem way smaller.
Sony is already beating MS. We do not need more consolidation of companies.
Look at POS ps5pro that Sony just dropped because they are lacking in competition.
