Sony has been the publisher for a zillion games via SEI.

They also literally directly own a bunch of game studios including Naughty Dog (The Last of Us, Uncharted, all the way back to Crash Bandicoot), Arrowhead Studios (Helldivers), Guerilla Games (Horizon) and now also Bungie (Destiny, Halo). That’s just a few of the big studios they own. Complete list here: https://www.gamesradar.com/playstation-studios-sony/

Edit: Oh and of course they owned the studio that made Concord (Firewalk Studios)

Some of the third party steam machines from 2015 actually had some distribution to Walmart stores. I saw it in the flesh!

Then don’t vote for him when the primary rolls around if you live in the state. Elections are a mechanism for finding out if his faults are acceptable to local constituency he would represent. People are acting like he’s a set in stone candidate and this is some moral crisis for the party.

The primary is in June of 2026. The “democratic establishment” and every opinion column ragebait columnist should just cool it. Let the voters decide in 8 months if they buy his apology and whatever else he does between now and then.

Dark Place was amazing and stupid. Totally forgot about that one

Can we try to land him in his stupid fucking orbiting car or whatever

I’m not OP but I am a long time DA fan (in the sense that I have played each game as a non-completionist at or shortly after release, and have often listed Origins as one of my favorite games of all time) and I’m right there with you on the previous games. I found the game totally fine. It was on par with inquisition and better than DA2 imho. If you liked the others and are a fan I think you’ll enjoy it well enough. Sure, some of the dialogue and story is a little stiff, but I think people have rose colored glasses on when they remember DA:O’s story.

It’s really hard to get people’s real opinion about the new game because a lot of them just wanna use it as a culture war proxy and either hate it because it because they’re anti-LGBTQ, or vehemently defend it to show how pro-LGBTQ they are. Both groups are annoying even though I am a leftist. I don’t really give a fuck about any of that in the context of the game. The game is fun and anyone who is obsessing over the game for political/social stuff probably didn’t actually play it, because it’s a tiny tiny portion of content in the middle of a huge game. People just want to paint this as a bellwether on the future of wokeness in games, when in reality it’s just a bellwether on if people are still into the same ol (fun as hell) BioWare formula.

That’s the funnest part of all: we don’t
