Comment on "You'll own nothing and you'll be happy"
Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 1 day agoSo…you have a driveless ps5 and couldn’t buy any ps5 game if it came on disk? You can only buy the license for your account?
But making it an option for devs probably means the end of media. Why would they even do that? As a Dev I want you to rent a license not own your shit.

I don’t think Sony allows PS5 games that are not available online.
“Sony makes it mandatory that you and your friends can share your games” was a major selling point. THIS IS FOR THE PLAYERS was they slogan. And they were really focusing on people’s needs back then.
Until Sony realised they can just milk people as Microsoft did or so …

Oh yeah this slogan is super cool and a good selling point. Sadly also sounds like a thing from my childhood 40yrs ago.
They need to quench every cent. And probably noticed that the majority of people wouldn’t even know or care. And the others can accept it or move to another console that still does. But I assume one is “imprinted” on one ecosystem and especially its controller?

Lol the ps5 controller is closer to an xbox360 controller than to a PS4 controller. What I find weird because the PS4 controller is just the most perfect controller ever imo. Maybe a bit bigger but the shape is prime

Oh lol. Did they try to equalize it to make switching ecosystems easier?
I jus thought that’d be the hardest in doing so. Considering I have an Xbox controller for years (rarely use it tho) and still suck sooooo hard in games using one. I couldn’t even imagine switching to another kind. My steam-controllet, which is vastly superior in any aspect, is still untouched due to that 🫣
