Shu Yoshida has admitted his Demon's Souls rejection was a failure. That's why you know this story at all. Sometimes people get it wrong. It's pretty sad to think Sony had some sort of vendetta against a game or developer.

I'm not saying they have a vendetta I'm saying they don't appreciate From Software and have repeatedly mistreated them and their IPs.

Admitting they fucked up is meaningless without doing something to make up for it, and no, holding a game hostage to inflate their own console's success is not that. For starters, they should release games like Echo Night 2 and Shadow Tower Abyss worldwide over PSN. That wouldn't outdo the damage of keeping them in Japan, but it would help atone. I don't know why the hell they put the original Shadow Tower on there if they hadn't intended to do this anyway. It's the absolute worst King's Field style game to get into those types of games so it's very strange they chose that over King's Field, especially with no intention to bring the sequel.

I know you're upset that it's PS4 exclusive but Sony most certainly aren't bad guys for paying a prestige developer to develop a game for their console.

Sony is bad for many reasons. For doing away with backwards compatibility, the handling of the PS3 in general, charging for online play, and the way they treated From all the way leading up to Demon's Souls. Hoarding one of their games after they become very successful does not make up for that, it's just a continued example of Sony sucking.

I'll begin to forgive Sony when they do anything to actually make up for the shit they screwed over. Until then, fuck Sony.
