I think all of Sony's games are coming to PC, the question is how soon.

I think after Helldivers, that timeline will be shorter and shorter.

Good for Sony though, this will only improve their razor thin profit margins.

Looking forward to Ghosts of Tsushima on the 16th

Gonna just wait for the Xbox port. With MLB, Destiny 3 and Marathon also coming to Xbox, it's only a matter of time.

This was expected to happen anyway as I enjoy Ragnarok on PS5, I'm totally double-dipping for PC ASAP!

Probably will hear more about it at Summer Game Fest 2024.

I was disappointed with the reboot. I'll pick this up when it's dirt cheap

I bought the PS5 version already as it was a solid 1440p/60fps and I didn't want to wait for the PC version. I will probably pick up the PC version down the road for cheap when I want to replay the game.

You have to, you need to play it in 4k 120FPS.

100%

No way Helldivers would've sold 60% on PC if they released it 1-2years later.

I think it is very telling that during the Helldivers reversal, they said "we are still figuring out PC". Sony has been on top so long that they are living in a bubble that they created, thinking that everyone on PC that wanted to play it will buy it when it eventually comes to PC.

There are so many games releasing on PC that your game will get drowned out, regardless of what quality YOU think it is. Better to release day and date (even single player games) and capitalize on hype or the PC community will wishlist and forget it. I have 40+ games on my Steam wishlist that I forget about until a Steam sale notifies me lol

I think the Sony fans are like an old pastor, preaching the message of the Sony sacred text (exclusives and console sales), all the while not realizing that the population is moving to digital sermons. (funny because this is happening in real life, people arent attending real churches anymore, especially young people, and they have started to offer online services to catch up to youtube/twitch sermons/pastors)

Nah, it was already pretty good quality on PS5 and I was generally satisfied with the experience. It was a cross-gen game that did not really push anything technically. That is why I did not wait for the PC version. If it was a current gen game that struggled technically, I would have just waited for the PC version. It will be nice to play it on the ultrawide in the future though.

@navyguy21: The writing is on the wall. The actions are clear as day but we still have folks pretending it is not happening. Sony even explicitly stated their goals and yet folks are still in denial. That is why it makes no sense arguing with folks who sub to a different reality, just get your 😂 with each encounter.

tbh don't care about 98% of Sony games, Namely anything that isn't from Japan.

And rather not have them bring over their shitty pricing and business practices to PC either.

Nope. As long as a game is running to my liking and standards, that is all that matters.

Was Ragnarok that bad? I get that some parts of the game was disappointing such as Jotunheim's swamp section was too much, the gameplay was solid good of an improvement from 2018.

The reboot was intended to be a new trilogy but I did notice Ragnarok was rushed and Santa Monica just felt it wasn't worth a 3rd game either. If they ever do make it to Egypt, it better have good writing cause I'm ready to retire after Ragnarok. Egypt or I'm not gonna bother with this franchise anymore.

The gameplay was good, but you don't just play gow for gameplay alone. Characters and story are as important, and it was a shitshow in Ragnarok. And not only am i tired of the nordic art direction, but by the end of Ragnarok, i was tired of this linear paths level design. It was good for ps4 standards, but i expect much more for the ps5.

I f*cking wish the ending was completely different, tho. I've said this a bunch of times, but how cool would it be if Kratos died against Odin because Odin was exactly what Santa Monica hyped him to be for two games straight (which was that he is OP af, and simply cannot be killed by some god of war). Then, Tyr tells Atreus that there might be a way to ressurect Kratos by visiting the land of sands (Egypt). This would also make perfect sense because Tyr has visited a lot of places, and knows a bunch of shit that others don't. This would be the best set up for an Egyptian setting that you could ask for. Instead, we got an ending written by some god damn 8y old. So boring and flaccid holy shit i am mad.

Yay! GOW didn't give me high hopes initially. Visually stunning but meh. However once the game opened up at the Lake of the 9, the game really clicked and I enjoyed it. So looking forward to this.

GOW:R, GOT, Spiderman 2, Horizon 2....Yep someone getting a few quid from me later in the year. Apparently Gravity Rush 2 (but not 1?) is also on the way...but apparently that's a shadow of the first game. I may still take a punt.

However I think I really know what PC gamers really want from Sony.

Loco Roco.

Also Knack!

@BassMan: PC version will have the ability to mod in cutscenes skips though. The section with atreus and angrboda needs this. It's a fun boss fight locked behind 10 minutes of dialogue.

I've been waiting on it to come to PC. Sony needs that money bad so I'll help them out a little. I played the last one on PS but on PC it was much better. Decent mods and no sacrifice on performance vs quality.

@hardwenzen: @DaVillain: I didn't like gow2018 like you guys did, so Ragnarok was dead to me before it was announced, but your version of kratos being resurrected in Egypt would be awesome! I love Egyptian mythology, or there abouts. It blows my mind that more games haven't done something with that. AC did, but I don't like AC, and they took way too long to get there anyway. Lut Gholein in Diablo 2 is my happy place.

So it is now a game I am not bothered about playing (and buying) on both PC and PS5.

I am sur it is a good game and people will like it but another game that has just passed me by me and it failed the day one test for me.

Always happy to see one less exclusive as it is a terrible practice, and everyone wins when we get to choose what platform to play their games on.

I'll pick this up on sale at some point for sure. The first (well, the first reboot of GoW) was fun, I liked the story, but it wasn't really all it was cracked up to be. Great for a Playstation/Sony flagship title, not so great when compared to the entirety of what's on PC.

No.

He was shit. Don't waste 5 years of development on a game with a shit story, when its so crucial to the game. FIRE HIM. End of the story.
