Sony funded Demon Souls, without them From Software wouldnt be what they are today because the souls games roots started as a playstatione exclusives. And yes a lot of people bought demon souls also because it was an exclusives, and we are talking about 2009 when this game came out. Playstation 3 had only MGS4 and demons souls as worthy titles at that time until uncharted 2 and god of war 3 came out and changed the ties. |
Alot of people bought it dispite Sony, it took two other publishers for the world wide release of this game. If Sony has had there way it would of been dead and buried after the Japanese launch. They had no faith in it as a world wide brand.
From made sure the rest of the world got to play this game despite Sony's "Betrayal" of saying it wasnt worth publishing outside of Japan.
From will always carry on making games but they do need a publisher, Sony passed they went to the next publisher. There was no betrayal, they just want to make games and they need publishers to do that. A multiplatform publisher will clearly want the game to be multiplatform.
