Honestly, I can understand the frustration of the Sony developers with Elden Ring's success.
Imagine putting years of work and effort trying to make a game that at its very core has to be constrained due to the PS4s limitations and have to design your game around a young audience. You can't make what you want to make. You have to cater to the lowest common denominator.
And after 3-5 years of development, you release a game you know is sub-par to what you're capable of and nobody will know any better because that's what the American market is used to.
And at the end of the day your publisher goes and pays off reviewers anyways.
Then an independent Japanese studio comes around and makes whatever they want and absolutely BTFOs every single Western game in the last 15 years and you're left confused and hurt, wondering how something that the Americans have clearly said they don't want in a video game goes on to sell 12 million copes in 1 month.
I get it.

I miss the days where developers would just shut up and make games
Why should Sony be mad? Most copies sold on Sony platforms. Nintendo is probably mad as fuck, because they still have no games for the switch.
Elden ring is the only game in like a decade that feels like a real game instead of psychologically manipulative woke bullshit. Maybe hajeeb can take a hint that UI don't matter
And ER had good one abgwa
ER sold best on PS4 after PC. Stop portraying it as a hardware issue.
>Why should Sony be mad?
Because they hate the japanese as shown by their attitude towards them
This tweet is made by the same kind of person that would praise the clusterfuck of a UI in games like Horizon.
allowing everyone to have a voice was a huge mistake
Shh you're not supposed to point out Sony is a Japanese company or you'll make them shit their diapers
no thinly veiled current events bullshit in the game is basically all it takes for me to not consider it shit
>Sony is a Japanese company
Are you sure about that?
user, that tweet is made by the person who designed Horizon's UI
>Imagine putting years of work and effort trying to make a game that at its very core has to be constrained due to the PS4s limitations
You mean Elden Ring?
>and have to design your game around a young audience
Doesn't Elden Ring have lower age rating?
>And at the end of the day your publisher goes and pays off reviewers anyways.
Then an independent Japanese studio comes around and makes whatever they want
Bandai Namco is literally the biggest Japanese publisher next to Nintendo and Sony
>Most copies sold on Sony platforms
Lol, Elden Ring sold most on PC, snoys have shit taste and bought Horizon Forbidden Whites over it
Holy kek, really? My fucking sides
UX = User Experience != UI
Just FYI, him being a salty cunt is still funny af
>"My life is a lie"
If your life revolves around video games in any significant way, you are a joke of a human being.
Fuck snoy and fuck the snoys.
The complete removal of snoy from the video game industry can't come soon enough.
I've never had a problem with Fromsoft's UI. What's so bad about it? I know the demon souls remake had terrible UI but that wasn't fromsoft's.
>one game promises a "unique experience"
>does in a bad way
>people mad
>other game promises boss go bonk
>boss goes bonk
>people happy
Simple as
>psychologically manipulative woke bullshit.
Oh, I see those fucking games a lot now. Been so bad I've banished myself to porn games and weird niches like PoE or Nier.
The trend in recent years years has been to treat players as literal retards who need constant all encompassing screen vomit that informs them of everything.
Instead of being humble and trying to understand what they were doing wrong... No, let's complain and call them names, never take accountability for shit design we make.
When did men turn into woman?
I'm very sure about that.
user... about that...
nice image for ants
Don't forget that they bought fucking Order 1886 over Bloodborne.
they made 6 dollars out of bloodborne
Not UI but UX. UX is why a lot of these games are like Ubisoft open world games.
based
Funny image. Worth the eye strain
UI: User Interface
UX: User ???
I'm sure you need to change your diaper
Xperi(a)(ence)
>user... about that...
Is Apple an American company although the majority of their sales are outside of the US (or the West) and all the products are made in Asia?
>permanent black bars in a VIDEO GAME to achieve "cinematic" aspect ratio
Holy fuck how did I forget about this. What an absolute shit show that game was.
Sony Playstation's global headquarters moved to California half a decade ago.
It doesn't hold your hand and constantly tell you where everything is. If Volcano Manor's sidequest was made by anyone else, when you accept a bounty the game would grab you by the neck about where exactly the target is with two or three cutscenes, would have a glowing beacon for you on your compass and the map and your character would say something about the target being nearby when you approach, said character glowing in full view.
User experience. Something about "making player feel good".
Oh, so like UX. I was thinking literally the UI panels. I like the dpad setup.
UX is shit like QOL features and usability you all look like retards
the fact that it scored 97 is proof that journalists didn't play it
Aren't souls players already feel themself good?
And Budweiser was bought by a Belgian company years ago, that does not suddenly make Budweiser a Belgian beer you extremely stupid person.
actually it sold 40% on PS and 44% on PC
16% on xbox
Is Budweiser's headquarters in Belgium?
Dunno Elden Ring plays like Genshin Impact for me, I'm still 200hrs in it and love to explore, still lv1 by the way.
Oh? And why is it that all the games this UX Experts work on are samey Ubisoft tower chasing garbage? We know what it's SUPPOSED to be but the end result is vastly different.
Why does Witcher 3 look better than Elden Ring?
Somebody explain?
It doesn't. There's nothing to explain.
PC has regional prices and code discounts, so 44% is equal to 25% or less.
Probably, and that's why they don't need it.
UX is shit like every button press followed by shiny sparkles and game congratulating the player for successfully inhaling oxygen.
On my PC Witcher 3 is much more graphically impressive, mainly because I can run it at 120fps, I think.
That game also has more dynamic environments with people walking, various things moving, etc.
The advantage of Elden Ring is that it has a crazy variation of environments, but still a lot of the time I feel like I'm walking through Dark Souls' crude scenarios.
And what can you do with all that stuff?

Phonefags deserve the rope for shit like this.
>ubisoft sand nigger out of touch with what people who play video games actually want
fromdrones are fucking mentally ill
this is clearly a developer making a joke at his own expense, yet they're acting like it's evidence of some vast conspiracy against their sacred cow
stfu Ahmed, go lick some goat's ass.
sorry please continue getting outraged at social media posts, it's what the algorithms would want for you
You can look at them. This is why, in my opinion, The Witcher 3 is more graphically impressive.
Artistically the game also looks much better to me, every farm animal in The Witcher 3 is super detailed, plus there are real world things in it, whereas Elden Ring is basically a game where there are only grotesque creatures and things.
Anyway, I only played 5 hours of The Witcher 3 versus 120 hours of Elden Ring (and 40 hours of The Witcher 1). It's not like TW3 is a good game either, at least I can't like that shit.
from what i played of Dark souls remastered, Elden ring's UI feels too small to me. and when i go around with Torrent everything feels blurry for some reason, haven't had this problem with dark souls
>there are only grotesque creatures and things.
You take that back. Boc is beautiful.
>has to bring up switch
Sad knowing that the best game on ps5 is a From multiplat?

When are the fucking retards running this site going to fix this shit? Why is a fucking IMAGEBOARD willingly destroying the quality of IMAGES for the sake of saving a few megabytes of upload data for phonefags?
