The thing is, the OP has three anti-NMS threads in the last few days.  If that's something that's going to continue with more threads, where they're trying to push their opinion with quantity rather than quality, then I really think it brings the forums down to a lower level.

Does that mean you've changed your mind? It wasn't too long ago that you ridiculed the suggestion that certain members should get their thread creation rights restricted.

Changed my mind?  Do you see where I said anything about moderation in this thread?

Where did I say that?  Go find it.  Sony is certainly getting paid for manufacturing and distribution--and, of course, they make more money on royalties when more copies are sold.  A deal with advertising and being a timed exclusive was likely signed early on.  

Hello Games owns the IP for NMS, which costs the same amount on PC.

If you want to blame Sony that badly then shouldn't you bring something even slightly concrete?

That is what beeing the publisher does. They are doing the job of a publisher but aren't credited for it.

So, i don't know. You go find out why they did it, but i'm sure its related to the IP ownership. The fact that they aren't credited in the box just change my rationale at all.

If you think this game would be 60 if Sony wasn't involved i would laugh, sorry to say.

No, that is not what a publisher does, that is what a distributor does.

What are you saying?  That Sony is the super-secret hidden publisher for some reason?  That they secretly own the IP?  Your rationale doesn't even make sense, considering that Sony has published other games that retailed for less than $60.
