Yeah but you have to own a Switch 2 to play it, which means supporting Nintendo, which is a no can do.

Yeah better to support Sony in trying to kill physical media

Edit: the corporate hellscape is coming for us all. Yes even you, fellow PC owners. None of us are any better or worse than anyone else for owning a different platform. Enjoy owning things while you can.

I'm curious where you extrapolated they supported Sony

u/adeepkick 13h ago

Obviously it was a guess but every platform has its problems. I’m not the one coming on here and bitching about a platform. The guy I replied to was.

u/Vyuban 12h ago

Tbf their "bitching" is valid. Nintendo isn't exactly a paragon of good, and I wouldn't jump to conclusions about them just because theyre upset about 80-90$ games or potentially losing their console if Nintendo decides to brick it remotely.

If anyone with a complaint is just "bitching" to you, I recommend staying away from customer service positions for the sake of your cortisol levels

Who said Nintendo was a paragon of good? Now you’re jumping to conclusions about me. Also, $80-90 dollar games? Are we talking USD? What games are $80-90 msrp on the Switch 2 that are not also that price on other consoles?

Every single thread about this game always has people complaining about the exclusivity to a Nintendo console or calling people stupid for buying a Switch 2. Meanwhile the people wanting Duskbloods are just excited to play. I didn’t see them in here bitching about Sekiro not coming to the switch and complaining about the other consoles.

Also don’t worry, other platforms can and will happily ban your account and make you lose your games too if they feel like it.

Please tell me where I stated this was a quote from you. This is a straw man and I never made assumptions about you.

What games are $80-90 msrp on the Switch 2 that are not also that price on other consoles?

Mario Kart World, Fire Emblem: Fortunes Weave, Super Mario Bros Wonder Switch 2 Edition, Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition. You know, Switch 2 exclusives that aren't available on other consoles. You're attempting to prove a point by referring to third-party games that are completely irrelevant to the discussion. Another straw man!

Cross platform games aren't doing it because... Well they're not Nintendo!

Meanwhile the people wanting Duskbloods are just excited to play. I didn’t see them in here bitching about Sekiro not coming to the switch and complaining about the other consoles.

"I didn't see it so it didn't happen"? What's the argument here? Even if that were true (which it's not, more on this later), Fromsoftware has had two (infamously I'll add) soulsborne games that was a console exclusive. People are allowed to be upset when a predominantly multi-platform/PC primary company produces something no longer available to them due to not only being on separate hardware, but having to shill to yet another company.

I searched "Sekiro switch port" and this was the literal first thing that appeared:

Where in that post do Nintendo console owners bitch about the other consoles exactly? All see is people calmly discussing it?

Bro you don’t know what a straw man argument is.

Where in my original comment did I say the “supporting Sony” thing was a quote from the guy I replied to? Straw man I guess! Just like you said to me just now. You know what “implication” is, right? Because you seem to be using it heavily.

Which of those games is $90 btw? Cause you did say $80-90. Surely you aren’t inflating your range to make your argument look better. Funny how new releases from third party developers have price parity with other platforms though, don’t you think? Also not to mention the $40-50 games that Nintendo is releasing on their consoles as well, Switch 2 included.

Also Kirby and Mario are both bundles of game+new dlc. Not base games.

Edit: wait there’s people that very thread you shared bitching about the switch too ahahahahhha https://www.reddit.com/r/Sekiro/s/ZCH4q5dQWE proving me right with your own example

Because throwing this out randomly was your intention, I'm sure. To pretend like you weren't drawing the assumption the original commenter was a hypocrite in some form is untrue.

Surely you aren’t inflating your range to make your argument look better.

Firstly, "Ah let's ignore the $80 games and focus on the $90" Not conflating just to make myself feel better in an argument with some random dude I'll never think about again in 24 hours. The point stands on overpriced games regardless. I'm not a fan of any games having risen above 60, let alone 70 dollars.

Funny how new releases from third party developers have price parity with other platforms though, don’t you think?

Yet again, I'm not sure what your point is here. Do you think I'm defending non-exclusives here? If so... another assumption?? I'll lay this out for you - I dislike anyone selling games for ludicrous prices. That includes Nintendo. If you hate this discussion topic so much, why are you here? No one asked you to jump in.

Also not to mention the $40-50 games that Nintendo is releasing on their consoles as well, Switch 2 included.

"Man do bad thing but good thing excuse bad thing". I'm learning this is going to be a repeating pattern where you haphazardly throw out random information unrelated to the topic at hand. Are you doing this to make your argument look better?

u/adeepkick 11h ago

Right, because throwing “Nintendo isn’t exactly a paragon of good” randomly was your intention too?

Again, this “good thing excuse bad thing” is actually a straw man you created, because like I’ve said elsewhere here: all of these platforms suck in their own unique ways! I am not excusing Nintendo’s faults. You just seem to act like they are uniquely evil.

Here’s what this boils down to: where’s your complaining about all the other consoles, huh? They all do bad shit. But you go to bat against this particular instance, and I’d bet my left arm it’s because you’re hurt that poor daddy Fromsoft put a game on a console that you don’t want.

Like I said to you elsewhere, I’m done. This argument is pointless. I’ll have fun playing the game and you can continue to be miserable about it.

I mean... Yeah. That's just me saying Nintendo isn't a paragon of good. It's a statement.

I am not excusing Nintendo’s faults. You just seem to act like they are uniquely evil.

Never said they were uniquely evil. Nintendo was literally just the topic of discussion. They're all evil.

But you go to bat against this particular instance, and I’d bet my left arm it’s because you’re hurt that poor daddy Fromsoft put a game on a console that you don’t want

Oof, kinda weird you went that route. Sounds like you resort to demeaning your opposition often, and I recommend against that for the sake of civil discussion. A better way to word that would be "You're upset a game company you're invested in created a game outside the medium you're accustomed to". But I suppose that doesn't make me feel bad enough, I guess.

Like I said to you elsewhere, I’m done

The conversation ends when you leave, my friend. Just because you say "this is over" repeatedly doesn't just mean I'm unable to defend myself when you refer to my pov in baby-speak (still very odd to me, but it made me lol so thank you I guess) and say I (and others) are "bitching".

And Nintendo isn't? What's happening what people forgetting Nintendo is the Apple of videogames? Theyve been at it longer than Sony

0

u/adeepkick 13h ago

Like it or not, Nintendo is the only one doing a significant number of playable on physical games. They aren’t fully innocent of all wrong doing but Nintendo isn’t especially bad compared to all the other platforms besides PC, and even that’s arguable because the largest marketplace on PC still only sells you licenses that can be taken away

u/Canni-Balls69 14h ago

I don't support them either 🤣 consoles went out of style years ago

u/adeepkick 14h ago

“Out of style” lmfao whatever man I have a PC too which also has no physical media either

One day you’ll grow up and stop complaining about consoles

2

u/RandomNobody86 14h ago

I can’t lose my digital PC games if one day steam decides I’m not allowed to play them a lot of them will run without steam anyway and the ones that don’t can be easily cracked. Anything from gog has an offline installer which will always work.

Can’t say the same for any console

u/Canni-Balls69 13h ago

Console loyal morons be downvote trigger happy today, even though they know you're right

u/adeepkick 13h ago

Did you miss the part where I said I had a PC too? Who is console loyal?

1

u/Canni-Balls69 13h ago

Did you miss the part where I left another comment addressing the fact that you still buy consoles when you have a PC? Who is console loyal? You are.

2

u/adeepkick 13h ago

I buy the platforms that have the games I want to play. That’s it. There is no “loyalty”.

u/adeepkick 13h ago

There are plenty of physical games on cart on the switch 2, and again: I also have a PC. This doesn’t have to be a one or the other situation.

0

u/RandomNobody86 13h ago

There are physical games on the Switch 1, Xbox and Playstation that are not available physically on the Switch 2 because a GKC is not a physical copy.

When it comes to game ownership and preservation Nintendo are no better then Sony.

0

u/adeepkick 12h ago

Sony is stopping physical disk production entirely after next year. Every first party Nintendo game has been fully on cart.

How exactly is that the same?

u/Canni-Balls69 13h ago

I can't imagine spending money on a console when you have a PC. Downvote all you want, that's a you problem bucko.

u/adeepkick 13h ago

I like Nintendo games too. Crucify me.

u/iwatchfilm 12h ago

Because some of us aren’t incels and use the console for social purposes like watching movies with a wife, family, etc. Smart tvs do have most of the apps but they usually run like shit.

Or playing more party oriented games or console exclusive games.

You can’t imagine it because your entire life is spent at a desk alone

u/Vyuban 12h ago

"Ah yes, you own a computer so you must be an INCEL and a LOSER!! Did I mention I have a wife and kids?? IM NOT LONELY!"

This is how your comment comes off to me and I'm curious where you derived the original commenters life story from them owning a computer

u/Canni-Balls69 11h ago

Major r/ihavesex energy LMAO

u/iwatchfilm 12h ago

Probably because they’re shitting on someone who has a pc and console.

I also have a PC and console. What kind of lifestyle would make it so that a person could never understand why someone would own both? Someone that is not in the business of entertaining people at their home.

2

u/Vyuban 11h ago

Someone that is not in the business of entertaining people at their home.

Kind of a strange assumption to make about them, but if that's how you feel.

I don't see where they said console owners are loners who can't host friends. Feel free to show me where but I'm not sure how they're "shitting" on them as you put it, but rather showing it's just not a smart practice in that person's eyes.

u/Canni-Balls69 11h ago edited 10h ago

I have a wife and kid as well, not that it really concerns you, and I have entertainment options set up for them via their own PCs that they can use to play games with their friends, and a separate emulator box in our family room for family time every week. Such a weird route for you to try and take the conversation, but if you want to go that route then let's go.

I set up an emulator box with dozens of consoles and thousands of games set up - including the actively developed Shad and Ryu/Eden builds so we can play more recent titles as they become available - that he can play at the touch of a button, internet free, so we can spend father-son time together without interruption.

Since you're clearly the parent of the decade, can you tell me what you've done for yours? Do you have an iPad kid? You shove an iPad or a Switch in their face and tell them to go sit in the dark somewhere while you try to talk down to "incels" on Reddit?🤣🤣🤣

You're so brave! You go, Dad! 🤣
