Lack of supply =/= lack of demand You basically answered your own question. There is a demand, for sure. But they can't produce it, which makes the brand weak. Just now, Kal-El814 said: The only thing floundering about the PS5 is Sony’s ability to produce enough of them, and this is not a problem that is unique to them right now. Exactly. You get it.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 The significant acquisition premium is entirely due to the absolute necessity of Sony obtaining a top-tier FPS studio for its stable and especially one with significant "live-service" games expertise. This is a LOT more than merely Destiny alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The def star Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Microsoft made Bungie more valuable than it really is. If you look at the Besthesda deal, Microsoft at least got their past catalog to put on their service. With Bungie, they get Destiny, Myth and Oni? The Bethesda deal looks a lot better in every passing day EDIT: And Marathon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potential problem with this and not getting any real marketable IP's is that the talent can leave. I mean it happened to Microsoft. Microsoft purchased RARE back in the day... but all the talent left, and RARE hasn't done anything since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
