It seems like the games where the publishers partner with Playstation becomes big sellers despite some of it having issues like metacritic low scores(Destiny), low content(Star Wars:BF) or  downgrades (Watchdogs). Some even like CoD which had problems with series fatigue just got experienced revitalization of their IP. And Bloodborne is selling like a Multiplatform Dark Souls game.

While for MS, any game they touch seemed to go to ruins like Sunset Overdrive and RoTR flopping despite good reviews. While others like Titanfall suffers low player count despite the "sales". I wonder why?

 

Unfortunately, yes. 

I am staggered by how Sony keep selling consoles and publishers keep getting high sales from truely abysmal games. Watch Dogs was terrible, as was Destiny, COD yet for some reason people keep falling for the hype on these multiplatform games. 

Any publisher now knows they can release any old pile of crap, have it marketed exclusively with exclusive content for the PS4 and it will sell like hot cakes. Its a very dissapointing trend and I believe this laziness is directly correlated to the lack of quality of these said games. Why put effort into making these games when you know the bundle is going to sell well, regardless of quality or content. 

And Titanfall is a different story. Everbody knows you can max out after barely 12 hours on play with ZERO incentive to ''prestige'' or hunt for unlocks. 

Quality is subjective, Numbers don't lie.
