From Software for "going to multiplatform" was a good decision???

This yet again proves that going Multiplatform in no way assures tremendous sales, or at least sales will increase anywhere out of the norm. In hind sight it does nothing but inflict more dev costs....but at least the shareholders/devs feel more secure about the release I suppose.

What they fail to realize is often times, Exclusives get more media attention as amunition in the "console war". If the game is good this is very good press, that is what happened with Demon's Souls. Dark Souls I am sure made them less money due to making it for 2 consoles as well as the fact MP games decrease in price drastically fast in order to make a quicker return. It took Demon's Souls twice as long to start dropping in the 20bucks range.

Sony fucked this up though, they had such little faith in it even after all the praise. Usually they are good with backing devs vision. Hopefully they are now on board to fully fund a Demon's Souls 2 for PS3/4. I prefer Demon's mythos far more. Maiden Astrea and King Allant FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!!
