f*** u rockstar

yall gta niggas bout to contribute to this too

I blame Kr0niic

Like, genuinely

Yep same

Yall can’t blame rockstar for this lol

I don't see anyone happy about this news, there's no way it don't affect them in a major way next-gen

Basement dwellers won

People will accept this

I do think they need to announce exclusives to help ease this when it comes to ps6 launch . If people can only basically interact with their platform . They need better reasons .

Nintendo and PC it is

i got a few physicals but pretty much rock digital only and yeah this is f***ing awful

forget about the used market and think about the digital storefront itself. there's now no reason to ever offer beyond 10-15% off anything during a sale because there's literally no other option. on top of that sony is 100% gonna move to launching their first party games at $80. plus sony is still doubling down on live service and next gen gonna be $1,200 minimum

ultimately i think most people will just accept it by the time it comes into effect but the next 3-8 years are gonna be rough, very expensive and result in even more closures and layoffs

this only is true if you backed up the GOG installer. If gog vanish's they will take all the installers with them. Do you got a 20tb drive with all your gog games backed up? lol

Doing third party console exclusives when it’s digital only feels like may be tougher to convince some developers . Because their game sales will be hurt by this

Better start making use of my deals and coupons

This will push many towards pc but many will stay

PC is digital too

Yes, this is going to make people happy

"90%" my ass

GTA 6 really bout to be the series finale of gaming (for me at least)

Actually.

its 93%

Think I’m done with this industry after 2027.

Steam is a much better marketplace than what Sony or Xbox offer, also a $1000+ digital-only console is not worth it when you can build a more capable PC for around the same price
