This looks gorgeous but the more the trailer went in the more I felt it was all very scripted and I’m struggling to get a sense of how it will actually play.
Regardless I’m surprised it was shown given the continued stories coming out about how it’s not in a good state even after years of development and crystal dynamics being brought in to help. Hopefully a sign it’s getting there but the cynic in me feels this was ordered to quell the rumours.
Yeah, we’ve not had a generation run short for 20 years. Even then most last 6 years historically and I think people’s perception is skewed because Microsoft rushed out the 360 quicker than normal.
What would new consoles even be at this stage? They’re still fast, can do 4k, some ray tracing etc. and yeah they compromise on things but you need to spend more on a graphics card alone to get more on PC. The cost vs benefit isn’t there yet not to mention (anecdotally) the “general public” talk about current consoles as if they’re new, so I don’t think there’s an apatite or need.
Eh, battery life sure. Form factor is debatable. I prefer the dualsense personally (own both).
What’s Sony got to do with this? It’s entirely developed and published by Square.
