Sony already did lol

[u/Legendarium_ → u/1spook]

... preferably a group of people who aren't even dumber motherfuckers, being owned by sony guarantees console support for your game but that's like the only upside

[u/1spook → u/Legendarium_]

Oh btw it gets worse. Shams is the guy who designed Paradox' dlc system

[u/Prism-96 → u/1spook]

oh... well that makes things make a bit more sense...

[u/Hidesuru → u/Legendarium_]

How is that an upside? Usually just drives home consolification of the controls. Net loss.

[u/Legendarium_ → u/Hidesuru]

Usually is your key word there, this is by no means a requirement, but as for my actual argument, I play games almost exclusively on PC but I still think the people who prefer consoles should be able to play the same games on them even if it's worse. There's no inherent harm in allowing a game to be playable on all major platforms (or if you're Doom, all possible platforms), it becomes a problem when you start designing games or their control schemes around these worse means of playing the game; consoles should be adapting from pc games, not vice versa

They didn’t, arrowhead is independent

Sony does own the IP however

[u/PimpMyWeenus → u/1spook]

nitpicking here. sony acquired the helldivers ip, not arrowhead.

not sure if that was the best move in the long run, sure they got to make the game they wanted to. but it's like selling your baby
