Right…. And they will likely monitor its trajectory over the next 5 years to see how the cube and tiny drag chute behave, this would make it an active experiment.
If something happens and that cube starts gaining altitude because of an unforeseen interaction, we’ll that’s something you want to know about before you put it on something big and have it go sailing off somewhere

Just because it will head towards reentry with 5 years instead of 25 years doesn’t mean it’s not space junk. it’s still space junk….

You have the AI mental equivalent of two teenagers without a teacher/professor in the room, so everything they say is basically shit. They don’t know how to handle their emotions.

Not if they are continuing to monitor it, which I imagine they will to see how long the deorbit takes, it’ll become junk once it begins to burn up

And? Are you telling me Sony doesn’t have any massively popular franchises it has exclusive rights to?
Exclusives are PlayStation’s bread and butter. After all these years now you get a taste of your own medicine and decide it tastes bitter?
Too bad, swallow it anyway and cope.

> Can you name me a title which was confirmed and announced for PS5 or PS4, from an acquired studio, which has since been cancelled on Sony’s platform?
IGN France just posted a timely article, today, that gives us another example:
> During our Redfall preview session , we had the opportunity to chat with the game's creative director, Harvey Smith (who also worked on Deus Ex and Dishonored 1 and 2). This was an opportunity to ask him the question about the impact of the acquisition of Bethesda by Microsoft in 2021, right during the development of Redfall.
> Harvey Smith told us that one of the notable consequences was the immediate cancellation of the PlayStation 5 version of the game.
> "We were acquired by Microsoft and it was a change with capital C. They came in and they said 'No PlayStation 5, we're focusing on Xbox, PC and the Game Pass'."
What Microsoft executives are saying internally does not coincide with what they say to the outside world.
Good on this developer, and for IGN France, for getting a hard quote that makes it very clear about what is happening.

Sure, but the AI will be able to handle those tasks as well.
The design and engineering primarily comes from the requirements. If you specify that it should utilize a CDN, AWS, Azure, scale to 10 million monthly active users, have user dashboards, etc, the AI should take those factors into account.
Eventually it will be trusted to handle all aspects.

You mean like a normal person "oh yep, got that one wrong". No, that's not what you did. Kind of like I predicted. Anyway, have a nice day.

It's almost like those are two separate statements and not what the OP said.
The article I link literally quotes Microsoft's statement you are referencing. I didn't say otherwise.

None of those can be described as "high quality IPs". They are mostly small indie sized games.
No future Zenimax game.will be on Playstation and when they acquire Activision it will be the same.
Again not hard to see the issue

How many massive multiplatform franchises has Sony bought and taken away from other platforms?
The answer is 0
While MS continue to buy up massive publishers to take massive multiplatform franchises away from Playstation
People should easily be able to see the difference. If not then there is something wrong with you

And then showing the humility that I already created the proper space where I should've listed it.
It seems like you think this nitpick fully discredits me, when all you've done is told me that Bluepoint belongs a little lower in my post.
And, doesn't change anything I've said because..........I will repeat again. Number of games that were taken from you? 0
Port-jobs can be done by other studios..........OR by the publisher themselves.
So if you worry about future Metal Gear games, Bluepoint never controlled any of that..........Konami did. Stop trying to give credit to Bluepoint for something Konami has full control over, and for something Konami can solve on their own if they wanted to.
Edit: ...and then he blocks me because he doesn't want to see me point out where he is being misleading and disingenuous.
So, I will point that out here, to his final post below: > Except, I already created a spot in my place where that SAME EXACT listing would be place.
> And I already told you that it shouldn't be in the first part, but rather moved downward in my post.
> Notice how you don't want to describe it in detail........you want to cling to the general phrasing of "got it wrong."
> And notice how I actually provide details that you intentionally leave out?
> Yeah.......I notice.
> So, you made a weak attempt to try and discredit my entire post by clinging onto a nitpick, that I went and admitted HOW it should be correctly placed in my post.
> Thanks for admitting that you were never being genuine to begin with.

You dont see a difference between some exclusivity deals and buying massive multiplatform publishers to make popular multiplatform franchises exclusive forever?
Are you brain dead?
A FF game released on Xbox just a few months ago.
Is Sony buying Sega justified because Xbox has some third party exclusivity deals

Is that what you think is happening? Sony isnt buying massive multiplatform publishers to take massively popular franchises away from other platforms like MS is.
Xbox has always had exclusives, no one "cried" about it. Now they are buying massive franchises because they suck at making their own with their current studios

Not sure how so much stupidity got upvoted in this thread but im going to say astroturfing. Yes Microsoft did say they have no financial incentive to make Zenimax games exclusive and now are.

Well I feel the same way now that programmers use Product Developer or Designer as a title. It's not like you can copy some lines of code from Stack Overflow and then you have a new Bluetooth speaker.
