As some know,Dust was intended to be crossplatform.
That (to me,someone who'd never heard of EvE) sounded pretty cool and innovative. I thought i could partake in a gaming history first...
But with this retreat to PCs,CCP has set a precedent. They have essentially said to anyone else "don't do it".
This decision will have lingering,rippling effects on the whole of the gaming universe.
I was hoping Dust could've been the ff7 or minecraft of crossplatform gaming.
FF7 was a landmark accomplishment for jrpgs.
And while everyone was trying to push the bleeding edge of graphics,minecraft proved you don't need insane graphics...you just need the fundamentals.(An active community never hurts either.)
These games didn't succeed because they focused on competition.
They succeeded because they had a focus of doing their own unique things.
A crossplatform game on the PS4 would have been incredibly unique,and would have won many fans and reputation for that fact alone.
In the future,players would've remembered Dust just as they remember FF7 or minecraft.
But,i fear,Dust will just vanish into the endless sea of FPS on PC. If it succeeds at all.
As i said before,i knew/still know nothing of EvE and using an "EvE connection" for someone such as myself was worthless. It was crossplatform that attracted me,not "EvE".

Sarcasm isn't needed.
Dusts' longterm effects would've been a lot more dramatic.
Rocket League is 2v2 with simplistic gameplay. Dust was/is 16v16 and uses bombardments from and entirely different game (EvE).
They are "leagues" apart in complexity and design.
Crossplatform the same game,and crossplatform two different games aren't even close to being relateable.

Aka trolling.
