Easy Allies Podcast #158 - 4/17/19

Coming up with and implementing solutions to make a multi tenant public facing systems configurable and adaptable way is part of my day job. Assuming the games are essentially PC games, I can think of a bunch of ways Sony could sell 1 version of a PS platform game and it adapt to the system it's on. Both with, or without the need of a server. So, if they don't, it's either because they can make more money by selling a PS4 / PS5 version, i.e. a PS5 version would drive sales of the PS5. Or, they worry users will get confused at 1 version. Or, they couldn't be bothered. I mean, they already do don't they? The PS4 Pro is running PS4 games with settings tweaked.

Oof Jones I've been avoiding that episode 9 trailer cuz I heard it was spoilery

I also think it's a K name. Evil wizards in my mind have angular names. So like: "Kharszerar" or something similar. Just my 2 cents. Spoiler: We all know it's short for "1-877 Kars 4 Kids K-A-R-S karsforkids"

Sony should stop the censorship it is clearly selective and bad. Also kyle.. PS5 is supposed to be released in 2019 but 7nm tech and manufacturing issues with AMD partners made it a risky move.

I'd check to see if you've been logged out. It happens sometimes to me logging in gives you back access.

We've also heard from multiple sources that Sony is very unclear to developers on these standards, often forcing them to make detrimental last minute changes and throw out stuff they worked very hard on that they thought would be fine, so I could see Capcom doing it that way as a sign of them being forced to make that change last minute and not having time to do anything better than that which is a whole nother problem on top of them policing developers with their own standards and comes off extremely disrespectful. At least be clear about policies like these if you're going to force them on others.

MBUN

The whole Sony censorship thing is really messed up. Japan is a different culture with different standards, and shouldn't be tied down by American morals. Capcom doing what they did seems to me like protesting by doing the bare minimum.

Minamik

Damn Blood just shutting Bosman down on character choice.

Owen

Maximillian on the next Frame Trap -- I can't wait! I wonder what would happen if you got Max and Huber on the same podcast... could we even handle it?

iconmaster

In my own head canon it is actually Kaz Hirai under an alias that is stealing all of the vile game ideas.. So it is spelled Kazhirar.

Yui

I’d anyone else having issues viewing the video and not seeing Patreon only posts ? It says it’s not available on my end

JDelValle21

Whoa, Maximilian Dood on Frame Trap? Yes please!

Nick Geurtsen

For one the Old Republic Trailers were produced by a infamous studio Blur which is one of the Holy Grail of 3d studios. Maybe thats why the feel was different :)

Tony Ranallo

Wow I actually found myself rewatching the 'next generation' jingle segment more than a few times. Very funny stuff Kyle.

Kenji Fuse

Ya it seems odd that he's on extended hiatus after saying how much he loves the state EZA is in for the last few months. Hopefully nothing bad happened family wise.

Chris Georgaras

Don’t wanna pry but is Ian doing alright?

Ajax

....aaaaaaaand Kyle proves Blood right about open containers. ;)

Corrigall

PS4 Backwards compatibility means a deluge of PS4s on the resale market.

David Balfour

Yea I am too sadly

Do, do do do, do, do do do, do do Do, do do, do Do, do do do, do, do do do, do do Do, do do, do *Drum fill* Gotta love hearing that theme each and every week. L&R

Andrew Chalmers

Sony is likely releasing lots of cross-platform games because they’re not convinced people who upgraded to a ps4 pro will upgrade to the ps5 right away. Also I think ps4 games running on the ps5 WILL see a significant upgrade, in the loading times...like Cerney already demonstrated. That in and of itself is huge. A 19x faster game. Just because the console will have an SSD it can pull the files from instead of the disk

confusedhulk

Is anyone else getting “video unavailable”
