not only is sony infallible, but because they've worked with sony on some mediocre exclusive games quantic dreams is also infallible and the reporter has a personal vendetta and a grudge against sony/qd and is making shit up.
These things will continue as long this website encourages semi political discussions (read :going ballistic on each other without most of the relevant facts or proof) on the gaming side.
In what sense this is random? He is the journalist that is responsible for one of the main reports talking about the toxic working environment of QD and he already has been asked how he knows he has been blacklisted and provided a very reasonable answer to that question.
Misunderstood then, thought you were undermining his claims
Nah, it will continue as long as insane fanboys who can't be bothered to research shit think a journalist working at one of the most reputable newspapers in the world will lie about being blacklisted.
Well the french news paper is going to talk to the french side of the company obviously.
Asking help from influencer and saying "you have the power to maybe influence opinions (Vous qui avez le pouvoir de peut-être influencer les avis) on the second tweet, this is going way too far.
Didn't Sony France also ban an outlet for giving Heavy Rain a low score? Seems like they have a history of doing stupid shit like this.
What could they possibly release that will convince you, a certificate of blacklisting?
it's not a simple tweet tho? have you read the original news?
lol, in capital letters:
There have been several tweets from the journalist, and unless you think he'll just randomly accuse Sony of blacklisting without knowing he is.. Dunno what to tell you. What do you want, a signed letter from Sony sent to you personally where they admit the blacklisting or something? What kind of certificate you want here exactly?
You need to chill it a little. People aren't "insane fanboys" for not flipping a shit at the first sign of trouble. Fact of the matter is that this is one side of the story.
Do you think they send documents certifying you're getting blacklisted? What possible evidence could he even provide beyond staking his reputation on one of the most reputable papers on the planet?
Nonsense. Journalists can behave like fanboys too, not saying that he is one. Maybe he has a grudge, maybe he doesn't. Unless I see evidence with my own eyes I'm not taking anything granted.
but that's not how blacklisting works. you'll never get a fucking email from sony or whatever company that you're blacklisted, nor would someone working at sony confirm it for you. you realize when you're being ignored by them.
Not getting review copies doesn't just mean they need to shell $60 for a copy of the game. They would have to wait for release day to start the process, way past review embargoes were lifted. This means the publication misses out on the media cycle which guarantees much less traffic, which would entail massive loss in ad revenue.
