Seems like corporate FUD but still important if corporate FUD is being used.
I would imagine, shitheads at a huge company excited they can hoard even more money?
Sounds about right.
Is also like how nobody ever mentions anything but from software.Like this isn’t a gigantic conglomerate basically owning the Japanese anime industry.
They buy it, make Bloodborne 2 and make it a PS exclusive, then disolve the company entirely as a giant “fuck you” to PC players.
you jest but this is honestly what is likely going to happen.
Better title: Kadokawa employees are reportedly “optimistic” about the takeover. Subtitle: Kadokawa owns FromSoftware
Kadokawa suffered a ransomware cyberattack earlier this year, but employees were left disappointed by the response from current president and CEO Takeshi Natsuno.
As a result, employees are said to be “thrilled at the prospect of an acquisition by Sony”, according to a new report from Japanese outlet Bunshun (via Automaton).
HAAHAHAHA, Oh The Onion, you guys are… It’s not The Onion… (for anyone that doesn’t get it, PSN has been hacked a couple of times)
Anyway, the “thrill” comes from the expectation that the current Kadokawa leadership will get the boot from the acquisition.
Oh please no. I’m not going to buy an overpriced console just to play their future games.
You could always sail the high seas
Can’t really pirate a game on PC if it’s never released on PC.
The high seas for a PlayStation 6 exclusive release? First, might be a while before piracy on a new console is a viable option, second, an emulator won’t be able to run it for years.
You won’t be able to pirate the PS6. Not unless technology gets really fucking gnarly by the time it releases so you can download hardware. You’d have to rely on real theft.
FUD means “Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.” I’m not following how you think that’s what’s happening here? I mean, I think you’re accusing the Kodokawa execs of bullshitting, but what they’re expressing is the opposite of FUD.
I also hate that phrase. It encourages you to blindly follow instead of wisly questioning
Oh, yeah, it’s use in the crypto space is absolutely part of cult conditioning. Any reality check, any sensible question, any appeal to reason, it’s all FUD. Only blind unquestioning faith in the rapture… I mean TO THE MOON… is acceptable.
Oh man, people really just repeat phrases without actually understanding what they mean. It’s very fucking annoying. I’ve also seen people refer to literally anything they don’t think is funny as boomer humor, even if it’s like a Gen Z meme.
The article is from eurogamer so you have to temper your expectations of the literacy of the readership.
Huh? The hell are you talking about? The article doesn’t mention FUD once…OP said that…
Given the upvote I’m guessing the two of you are part of the aforementioned eurogamer readership…
Sony wants a monopoly on the anime. From software is just a bonus
site blocked for work, but are they actually thrilled or “fucking thrilled”? haha
