binary solo said: Is it safe to say "We effing told them so!" in here? Damn, just a day ago there were still certain people on this website vehemently claiming that there is never going to be RoTR on PS4, using obviously smoke and mirrors statements from Phil Spencer as proof positive that RoTR won't be on PS4. So frustrating and nothing you say with logic, or point out the cynical nature of PR practices around these sorts of things, gets through at all. "It's a deal like DR3 and Ryse, therefore no PS4." And those people won't learn from this. The next time PR spin comes along they will still drink the koolaid. A warning to us all though. Always be more wary of the PR spin coming out in favour of your preferred console. Being self aware, so to speak, is more important than finding gullibilities in other people. Especially when you want to point out their gullibilities. Schadenfruede is really not justified here, since pretty much everyone's been screwed over with the RoTR mess, possibly with the exception of PC gamers. But I can't help but feeling a rather prolonged in your face moment, just because some people were so determined to convince everyone of the permanent console exclusivity. I will probably get RoTR next November. But I've also been saying I will get Bloodborne and The Witcher 3, and I haven't done that yet, and I want to play those 2 games (and Uncharted, and TLOU2, and Ratchet and Clank) more than I want to play RoTR. So maybe 2017 is when I'll get it. And maybe, like TR 2013, I will only get it when it comes to PSN+ because I have no real room for it otherwise; now wouldn't that be an irony? |
To be fair though, it was still relatively few people on vgchartz holding that thought even considering the size of the Xbox community here, I've been to other places (mainly r/xboxone) where it was way worse, where people were actively in denial and a lot of them just hoping it wouldn't come to PS4, I've been downvoted so many times over there for trying to explain the Tomb Raider situation.
