Out of the 12 planned PlayStation live service projects, only three even released (So Far), and of those, only Helldivers II was successful, Marathon is doing.....fine but nowhere near where Sony wants it to be, Concord flopped HARD
Sony shut down Japan Studio, The studio responsible for games like Gravity Rush, The Legend of Dragoon and Ape Escape because They were deemed βnot profitable enough.β Meanwhile Sony burned hundreds of millions chasing live-service
Being candid, I'm exhausted.
I'm exhausted most days lately.
My brain is overwhelming because it's not just mine so that's exhausting.
The world we live in is exhausting.
Everything is exhausting and I'm kinda tired but I keep waking up anyway....
βPiracy is the most effective form of artistic distribution these days. So be it.β

If we let global internet ID happen, then CBDC and social scores are not far behind.
I have a very strong suspicion itβll be force-conditioned as a post-β9/11β [placeholder date] change within the next 5 years. There may be workarounds, but theyβll likely involve crime - either using someone elseβs digital ID, or meshnet or HAM to an unfriendly country.
Itβs being pushed globally in the West and theyβre currently at the βprotect the kidsβ stage of normalization, with porn site IDs and social media age verification to get the public (especially the youth) conditioned to it.
As of today, 25 US states and 10 major countries have either implemented, passed, or tried to pass some form of age verification or online ID legislation since COVID. AUS and UK with Online Safety Act, EU had Digital Services Act, SCOTUS (US) upheld Texasβs age verification law setting precedent.
βIt [digital ID] is also good for school enrollment; it is also good for health - who actually got a vaccination or not; itβs very good actually to get your subsidies from the government,β she said to a room of nodding heads". (She is part of the push toward CBDC as well)
WEF also wants a βPlatform for Good Digital Identityβ as a global framework where your identity is "portable" across borders.
Queen Maxima of the Netherlands took to the Davos stage to declare that digital IDs are necessary for nearly every aspect of social engagement
The 2026 WEF (World Economic Forum) βUnmasking Cybercrime" Report calls for "Synthetic Identity" protection, which would mandate a government-linked digital ID to access all major platforms to prevent AI fraud (deepfakes etc).
UN (United Nations) hopes for βdigital ID for allβ by 2030
The wealth class and leaders of the βfreeβ world have stated goals for requiring a global ID to access the internet by 2030, Everything you do and say will be βreal nameβ backed, and internet (modern society) likely revoked for sharing or bypassing the system After that, CBDC
If this means KOSA, KIDS and SCREEN won't pass , thatβs not a downside
This is true! I do think my universe is a more exaggerated version of humanity but in Helluva itβs pushed more by the perspective of the hellborn, who have very different perception of humanity. π

Mewgenics, RE Requiem, Silksong and STS2 prove one thing the Industry STILL Doesn't want to learn: people enjoy good single player games more than Live Service Slop

im siding with nintendo on this one
Sure ignore the doomsayers but completely brushing off the concern about how successful itβll be deemed by SONY, not Bungie, is really shortsighted.
