Splits into 3, so 3 times as many middle managers, never a good thing isn’t that what ruined them in the first place ?

Well people complain when they consolidate and there's redundancies. This is the opposite so apparently you can't win.

Honestly huge companies being less huge is a good thing. I think ABK should have done the same thing, then they could have had more than one possible buyer to purchase them. It was really Microsoft or no one how they stood.

From the sound of it. Each company will be separate from each other.

They may not have a plan to exit gaming. But give it time they will eventually sell off everything and fade away into nothing.

Stellar Blade has sold more physical copies than Dragon's Dogma 2 in Japan, despite PS5 exclusivity

By the looks of it, PlayStation 5 exclusivity does not hurt the sales of Stellar Blade in Japan as the game has passed 90,000 sold physical copies.

Stellar Blade really deserves way more praise than it got, devs have been adding more and more content, for free, since release and the game already was great to begin with!

BrettAwesome10h ago

More than it got? It got tons, by everyone except the sad wankers who's idea of a sex life, is pulling on their dicks while watching big fake cgi titties 😂

I think we can safely claim that Stellar Blade 2 is confirmed!
I got it day one, i have some backlog due to RDR2 i just platinumed.. i will get to Stellar Blade in the near future

Same but I'm hitting yakuza right now. Stellar blade looks cool though.

Capcom really dropped the ball with DG2. They had easy success on their hand but instead with their stupid decisions ruined the games success

Stellar blade is an amazing game and deserves all the success. For all the artificial hate it got from people who had no interest in the game to begin with this shows if you make a good game it will sell. The so called 1st party drought from PlayStation has meant 4 exclusives in 2024 so far. Other companies need to learn how to run a business and plan for the future

Stellar blade is performing very impressively there, DD2 didn't do well because word of mouth destroyed it's reputation and not about the Microtransactions or performance, bad word of mouth about how the game lacks so many things that were in the first one

DS2 sold 2.5M in a little over a week, what the hell are you talking about?

H910h ago

"there", that's Japan, this article is about Japan, the bad word of mouth is about Japan

Exclusives matter. No matter what bumbling phil and bond try to say, exclusives is why you buy a console.

How dare you speak common sense!!??

It would if they added a lot more combat and didn’t focus on graphics

Stellar blade is great excited for 2

They dropped the ball with dogma. SB is a solid game, it just had to weather the social storm.

Said that dd2 was missing things the first one did,like mass effect 2? I haven't played it so I'm really asking.

spss118h ago

I've played both and I have no idea what people say when they claim it's "incomplete". I've only noticed new things in comparison to DD1 (I would give a list but spoilers). Sometimes I wonder if some people actually played DD1 or maybe they remember it differently. Anyways, if you liked the first one and want more of that, you'll probably like DD2.
