Stellar blade on pc would be easy money. Imagine the mods for this game 😂. Bloodborne and Demon Souls Remake also but yeah Sony does not want money.

I know I am alone in this.... But i like physical copies of games.... Going to PC exclusively is a all digital platform... I think it is a bit Myopic
@MohgensteinOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
1 million sales in two months? But all the anti woke weirdos told me they were going to buy it to support games with hot women! Lol.
@ChronosphericsOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
For the developers, the money from publishers actually helps a lot in providing financial security, funding the project and taking a large chunk of uncertainty away from the releasing your game. Especially if the publishing deal includes exclusivity as it generally includes much better financial support.
Players don't see that, but if your a dev and you have a good publishing deal on the table even if it is exclusive, it's often a good option to take, especially if your studio doesn't have a strong revenue stream from other projects already. Essentially the publisher is buying up some of your risk.
As for Stellarblade being expected to sell many millions of consoles, it's not. Exclusivity is designed not for individual games to move huge numbers of systems but for a wider strategy of games, to sell systems. I don't believe Sony expect people to buy a console to play Stellarblade, but they do hope that people will buy a console to play Stellar Blade, Gran Turismo, Spiderman 2 (early), and so forth. Yes a lot of these games do come to PC now but we also know that the vast majority of players buy into a game during early launch period. It's often that > 60% of a games total sales will occur within the first 6 months, so being able to play a game immediately, when there's buzz, when there's lots of marketing, is obviously important to people.
@sootythunder3111October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Something to keep in mind about stellar blade is that while I don’t know the exact cost, stellar blade wasn’t that expensive compared to other AAA games due to it really not being that big of a game, it only had 2 areas that could be considered an “open zone” locations (both of which were deserts so not the most resource intensive biomes for the developers to make) with the more environmentally diverse sections of the game being linear. With a lot of reuse of assets between underground tunnel sections as well as those levels you could only use your gun, I honestly wouldn’t be suprised to learn that the game only cost 80-100 million usd to develop, which honestly might actually make the game AA not AAA. Another thing that helps this game keep costs down is it not being an “always online” game. No server costs needed (also you need a WHOLE team of specialized programs to work on creating your online service system so that costs about 90k per year per technician) Also as a single player game this game is pretty much evergreen. It has zero up costs and years down the line every time there is a sale at say 25-50% you probably net a few dozen hell maybe a hundred or 2 players just buying your game sure it might be at $50 instead of $70 but that would still see an influx of $50,000usd for absolutely no cost It sold 1.4 million within what was it 1 month, I imagine Steam would probably see another couple hundred thousand sales over a few months, not the explosive 1 month sale of launch but hey it doesn’t have the marketing behind it the launch did so bit of a slow burn, but PC players I find are willing to go back and buy games a few years older then console players tend to so like I said evergreen content

Stellar blade or sparking zero was goty honestly wukong was mid he is too strong makes it feel boring that sht was ez asf
@squirlking2October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
At some point I knew stellar blade would go to other platforms. Th biggest one though will be PC because the modders will remove all censorship and mod eve to be even sexier.

Smh u clearly don't know what ur talking about bruh, make sure to announce whatever game u make, I'll be sure not to buy it roflmfao
@geopoliticalnutz7350October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I'm a PS guy. But if Stellar Blade were to be released on Steam, it will sell like hotcake. And the modding community will go crazy and I'm all up for it. lol
@BQUNTYOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I don't own a business but if I have 61,000000 customer and only 2 to 5 million off my customer is spending money to buy games on my platform why should I spend the money to when they are going to buy it anyway

@i8ballsOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Sold very well and is getting a dlc expansion with PS5 Pro enhancements does that sound like a failed experiment
@abcdef2069October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
i heard that they are making stellar blade for pc, so why fail? besides if i were a game maker. i wouldnt make the games for pc that cant be copy-protected... and if i were a game player, i wouldnt buy console games, why would i need all different machines to watch tv or videos or to play games while one PC can do all of them. example) pc resident evil 4 was a total worst trash, it takes 15 sec to aim a zombie, not 0.05 sec pc crysis 1 was trash too, there is no way i could switch cloak-armor-kill-cloak in 2 seconds with a pulldown menu
@abcdef2069October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
at 5:37 ...live service game of stellar blade.. how? when eve was fused and after all naytibas died, it is not like starship troopers that they could make bugs keep on coming. can someone make 1st starship troopers made in 2005's playthrough for at least a normal difficulty and not easy, i cant defeat bugs in 1st chapter in normal difficulty, there are too many bugs spawning and i always fail to guard my engineer.
@anonvoila4883October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Is Sony overestimating its player base, thinking it can sell huge numbers of game copies? Recently, companies going exclusive with Sony have ended up regretting it. The issue is that Sony players often don't buy games they only care about they're exclusives. SMH, Square Enix learned this the hard way, and Shift Up is starting to see it too. Honestly, if the game launched on PC from day one, it might have sold three times more. However, Xbox has already said they won't host any games appealing to the male gaze. Hopefully, this fantastic game heads to PC soon because it's AMAZING and offers great replay value!
@Abdelr7man101October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
No exclusives = no value
@Christopher-ro1dlOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I am a big Souls fan but not enough to spend $500 for a remake of demons souls. Having PSN go down and make all my playstation and games unplayable until servers came back was the end of playstation for me. I would not risk buying a PS5 to have it also go down or lack of internet make it go down.
@ShinKamaitachiOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm

@iamcolddogOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
You make some interesting points but I think you missed one important aspect, at least with regards to Stellar Blade (which should not be in the same sentence as failure). Wouldn't a smaller unknown like SHIFT UP welcome the infusion of cash that Sony gives them for exclusivity? If not for that investment the game may not have been as good ... given SHIFT UP may not have had the resources on their own. Once the IP license expires they can then go to other platforms (which I believe is what they'll be doing). That said, I wouldn't call Stellar Blade a "failed experiment"
@LionKingofBeastsOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
You do realize they attacked stellar blade like crazy and ended up censoring the game which turned a lot of people off right? That hurt the sales, especially since it was a PlayStation exclusive. If it was on all platforms, it would’ve been up there with wukong or at least close to it. Who knows, maybe it sold more and sony is hiding the sales because they are mad that we are going after their DEI bs games and decided to take all of their frustration on stellar blade
@wishingW3LOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Just here to say Stellar Blade is actually an amazing game and underrated as hell.
@PixelMurderOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
They want to force us into their PSN network and/or to buy a children's toy. It doesn't work. I mean, I don't even have an Epic account so far because I can be very patient. One million copies sold? Wukong had a peak of more than 2 million players on Steam.
@BeautifulKurumiOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Sony did it. To keep it off Xbox and delay the PC version! When Sony lost $400 MILLION of its own DIRTY MONEY!!! I said: HELL YEAH!!
@zoltanschweifer4304October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I will buy pre-ordered Demon Souls and Blood Born day one if it's comming to Pc. Not many things I am excited to see mybe the new Astro.
@mrX666-s9pOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Pc clowns lying again look at final fantasy 16 all pc clown said ohh 3 million is not good while on pc it didn't sold quarter of that. All pc gamers do is pirating when game doesn't have denuvo pc sales are a joke.
@MyDeerocOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Stop hating on playstation and play your pc
@MyDeerocOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Did u play the game?
@jimbobborg22October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Games don't sell consoles? Black Myth: Wukong has sold over 20 million copies and caused a run on PS5s in China, even though it was also available on PC at launch. No, I'm not a Sony Playstation fan/ I have a nicely spec'd out PC and two XBox series consoles. Would I like to have seen Stellar Blade on PC? Yes. Do I think exclusives are dumb? At this point in time, yes.
@86lanzoOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
A game being exclusive limits its ability to have viral success..
If stellarblade was on PC and xbox it might have blown up like Elden Ring....being on everything means more youtubers will make guides,there's more engagement..which leads to more ppl trying the game..
When you don't put the game on PC and xbox you don't just lose the sales from PC and xbox..you also lose sales from Playstation that the viral success of the game would've generated
@TheUnseenKrabOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Me playing Stellar Blade on my PS5 physical copy ftw 😎
@1178978October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I am one of the people who was guna. Get a ps5 just for stella Blade. im a pc player, but i watid till realise fore revews and the sensering changed my mind, and I'd bet thers alot like me
@JTVegaOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Stellar Blade its like another Bayonetta with souls like action only manage to get a cult following. Bayonetta 3 sold at 1.30 million if I remember correctly Nintendo had to ask for that exclusive.
@miragesplOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I need this on Steam. I'm not buying a console for one game.
@18266609October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Yep. Like I said before bare minimum Sony exclusives should be launching on pc day 1 alongside the console release. Most pc players won’t buy a console to play exclusives. It’s cash left on the table.
@shanerice2019October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
It doesn't surprise me that the PlayStation fans have absolutely no clue what you're talking about and it shows by how mad they are in this comment section and blaming the 360 for starting moneyhatting even though Microsoft bought the studios that made the games but is perfectly acceptable when Sony buys a developer
@jeremyordazOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Microsoft didn't want it because of the attractive female lead. I forgot their exact words but that's what they said.
@kushgod3069October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Damn all this guy do is try to find a way to shit talk PlayStation and about stellar blade but yet dont know y stellar blade was made a PlayStation exclusive
@icalivyOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I bought PS5 for stellar
@elwen8525October 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Real this game looks cool. Not cool enough to buy a ps5 but I’m still mad I can’t play it
@Ninjutsu2KOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
I’m glad it didn’t sell as they expected. I didn’t see this game on Steam. Why should I buy it if it's not available to me? From my perspective as a PC gamer, PlayStation didn’t try to sell their game to me, and I bet 30 million Steam users, who could have been targeted, didn’t see it either.
@Aeon-wi1vtOctober 26, 2024 - 12:52 pm
Meh Spider-Man 2 was woke-ified. I skipped it and didn't even get it as a monthly bonus. Stellar Blade is a masterpiece though. Really like it. If I didnt already have a ps5, I would have bought one for it lol.
