is sony turning into another nintendo/disney?

A corporation founded during the Showa era will always be anal retentive about intellectual property.

(Nintendo was and still a company making playing cards for decades before it found its bread and butter on handhelds then consoles; Disney was already in the marketing and merchandising game by the 1930s.)

They see modding their games as a shameful behavior

Seems some of them are avowed purists.

They also think modding is a form of cheating, as in supposedly breaking the game mechanics, forgetting that some games are good visually but have awful difficulty or needing more immersion.

Blame the suits, they got into the video game business once Atari became a household word.

Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading (www.pcgamer.com)

Just minutes before it was set to deliver its financial results for the first half of its 2025-26 fiscal year, Ubisoft mashed the brakes on the whole thing, postponing the release of its results to an unspecified future date. The company also requested that European exchange Euronext halt trading of the company’s shares and...

The Nestle of video games. Because just like the food empire it never got flagged by the EU for overreach.

Turnover is so fucking high in that industry, anyone working in there now should have their CVs constantly ready in case they’re marked for retrenchment or layoff. Given the suits constant desire for pure profit, anyone wishing to apply for the big leagues should be thinking twice about this.

More than 1,200 games journalists have left the media in the last two years | VGC (www.videogameschronicle.com)

“For quality games media, I continue to believe that the best form of stability is dedicated reader bases to remove reliance on funds, and a hybrid of direct reader funding and advertisements.

It’s so bad now that nearly all the articles are mainly clickbait or written to favor a particular game (no matter how mediocre), and someone had to create what’s called Saved You A Click.

Unsurprising, it’s not for anyone but those who spend a lot to be able to frag the other one.

I stopped playing MMOs and online shooters a long time ago. Instead dividing my time between actual cycling and playing single player adventure games.

File a lawsuit. Paying customers are supposed to do that if they were given an explanation but in bad-faith language.

Easy to say, yet so far most of the other modding sites seem to be content sitting on their butts right now.

Building an alternative would take time. And some money.

That corporation is still stuck in 1985 or 1989 (otherwise stuck in the Showa Era), trying to keep absolute control of anything it made.
