So anything that is not a multiplayer shooter is a story driven game with boring gameplay? I see.

So games like spiderman, god of war, horizon, bloodbourne, sekiro, infamous, persona all fall under the same category for you? Boring gameplay and only long movies. But sony is saved cuz cod , battlefield and destiny is on the ps4. The only real gameplay experiences. 

If you can only see that one genre of games to entertaining you, then yea, xbox all the way for you. discussion over. 

Oh calm down, you know what I am talking about. Games like Spiderman, God of War, Horizon, The Last of Us, Days Gone, Uncharted 4, 1886 and Detroit have a very heavy story focus or use a large world to pad out the game. I play very little open world games now because it has become tedious.

All of these games sell well so I dont blame Sony for going that route. But I am kinda bored of it and the most active games generally arent story driven.

Technically Infamous:SS should be on that list but its exceptional for it exploration and combat in my opinion. I also really enjoyed Uncharted Lost Legacy for being more action focused.

Bloodborne and Sekiro(spelling?) are very gameplay focused in comparison to other games mentioned.

Exclusives arent the only content people play, in fact people mostly play non-exclusive content on PS and Xbox. You can get games in many genres on both platforms.

I was suggesting if PS4 didnt have so many notable 3rd party shooters, they might attempt to make a good one. They only made like one this gen. PS3 had considerably more attempts and some were not bad.

But lastly, I like MS and Sony doing different experiences. I certainly dont want both making making games focused on walking and talking.

Your almost saying that if a game has a good narrative, its story focus and the gameplay can be dismissed. Cuz aside of detroit and the oder 1886, all thouse games had amazing gamplay. That games like god of war had S+ story, cinematic, music and all that, dosent take away from the incredible hack and slash it still is, has a great open world to explore, many unique side content. And lets all say the rest was just an A+. Are we really to say that because the narrative is S thats the only driving factor of the game or why people would buy it or why reviewers put it on a pedestal? 

I never claimed people only play exclusives, maybe if for a multi console owner, you will play most games on your console of choise regardless of how powerful it is. Thats something people forget, where your friends are is tends to be another great influence of where to play multiplats. The secondary console will be an exclusive only machine. 

I somewhat agree with you there on the 3rd party shooters. But I mostly think is more because the market is saturated in that department. And most of them tend to be live services so the biggest are always active the entire year. One you need to have a great product to break the ranks then keep suporting, I think the resources could be better spent on multiple other projects. And second why compete with your partners? I dont blame MS here as that is the biggest genre at the moment and most likely makes the most money from loot boxes and season passes and what ever. SO yea, glad they choose what route to follow.
