So you think a handful of influencers would be better testers than the engineering team?

Influencers that do stress test on a 12-18C room, with the console over a table with everything open and plenty of space, testing a crossgen title? Yes sure that would make that Sony approach of updating the fan operation with firmware needless.

Can’t beat a real home test. You should see the tests these guys have been doing. Cramped spaces, covers on the Series X top, leaving it on for X amount of time, factors like dust etc. It’s all very fascinating. You yourself made a implication in the OP, I’m just drawing a conclusion based on the article. 

You do know that engineers with self respect when doing stress test will do very high room temp, cramped and with a lot of dust right? Also simulating aging. I for sure know that even that can't beat hundred million users using it for several years. But influencers doing their tests certainly don't really add much, even more when it is weeks before launch.
