thingsiplay, rok temu do gaming w GOG is going to start deleting oversized cloud saves at the end of August

Is there a simple way to download the save files before they get wiped? I mean without downloading the game and sorting out where the saves are and such. Steam has a dedicated page for that: store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorage (there is no download all link, but at least it’s straight forward)

According to the email they sent me:

You can do it from gog galaxy. No idea if the game has to be installed though :/

Understandable. It’s definitely possible to use any other cloud service for the saves. Maybe they’ll have some paid save service in the future - I don’t like this, but considering corporate greed in this equation…

Calling this dude a douche-canoe is too generous.

This man is an absolute douche-barge.

Did my part and reported the steam page, don’t know if anything will come or it with the original copy not being on steam.

Ah taking notes from how Unity fired people. Slow and steady to ensure morale is as ruined as possible

Yep. I have a friend who works there, well I guess he use to. Get ready for a wave of shitty videogames all written and designed by AI in the coming years.

AI comes up with bad ideas just like CEOs.

that’s why I hope the game-like genre naming really takes off that means I can just play the original and skip the rest

I imagine you’re being facetious, but you’d miss a lot of great games this way.

The seas are mighty fine this time of year, I might as well go for a sail.

Any novel idea that gets a modicum of success is immediately and repeatedly flogged to death by copy-cats, both indie and corporate, for the next several years until the gaming public is sick of seeing it. See any recent successful gaming trend for an example.

Vampire survivors comes to mind.

SorteKanin, rok temu do games w God of War Ragnarök will require a PSN account to play on PC

Let me tell you what to do when the game drops on steam:

1. Buy it at full price as soon as it releases.
2. Press play, get to the PSN login screen or whatever it is.
3. Close it.
4. Immediately post a negative review saying it requires a PSN account.
5. Request a refund from Steam, you’ll basically get it automatically as you played less than 2 hours.
6. …
7. Profit! Watch Sony squirm with those reviews.

Small indie studios instead of the hulking meat grinders of corporate giants.

I don’t honestly understand why Sony is pushing this do hard.

Kolanaki, rok temu

They want your data so they can market you a PS5 better.

ImplyingImplications, rok temu

There’s definitely a CEO whose bonus depends on hitting a certain number of PSN accounts. I can only assume account info is being sold because why else would they care? It’s either that or they eventually plan on charging PC players a monthly fee to play all their Sony games.

That would be hilarious, I’d love to see the backlash if they tried that.

littlebluespark, rok temu

It would sound an awful lot like the high seas, methinks.

NoneYa, rok temu

Could be market share. More PSN accounts than Nintendo and Xbox in competition.

Just to play devil’s advocate here.

But I’m with you, either selling data or both of these.

acosmichippo, rok temu

could also just be as simple as getting people’s feet in the door to their marketplace. if you already have an account maybe you’ll be fractionally more likely to buy other stuff in the store. multiply that by a few million or whatever… it’s not nothing.

MrScottyTay, rok temu

This is the actual strategy they’re going for I think

accideath, rok temu

Yea. Someone higher up at PlayStation (I forgot who, might have been the CEO) recently said that they believe PC gamers would buy PlayStations to play exclusive sequels to their PC games (like Horizon Forbidden west, which is not yet on PC). Forcing PSN accounts for their games on PC opens the door to getting a PlayStation just a little bit further.

Marketing. They want to increase PSN account numbers to increase their valuation, to have more data, and to make it easier for customers to move to their products/services since the account creation is already done.
