| BraLoD said: I can't rule out it being decided to appease some of the backslash tho, even Digital Foundry was being quite harsh on their decision to close Bluepoint, and even Playstation focused channels like Mystic which is really cool headed and brings a lot of down to earth positivity to the Playstation community was contemplating if Hermen Hulst should step away like Jim Ryan in his last video. I can only imagine the reactions of the overall community. It was REALLY bad for their image, as I think it should have been. And they were hiding in such a good mood after the SoP... |
I think this is somewhat hyperbolic. Those who actually care about the Bluepoint situation are enthusiasts like you and myself. it's no different from the Japan Studio closing. The vast majority of the PS5 userbase don't care or don't even know. And I would imagine that most of the potential +10 million users for Wolverine are the same.
So, I'm not really sure how this actually helps Sony because either ppl don't care (then the deflection is pointless), or the ppl who do won't be swayed from negativity (which means the deflection is pointless).
