I can't...Goddamn. Between this and going back to that TLOU port well again.

This is assuming that Returnal appeals to everyone. People want a wider variety of risk-taking projects so ones that appeal to them will hit the market. Returnal isn't a magic bullet solution to the problem.Everybody demanding riskier, fresh IP is gonna buy Returnal, right? :p
But if Days Gone 2 isn't happening, that makes the upcoming PC port inexplicable because I was told PS games only come to PC to bait PC gamers into buying a console for the sequel to said ported game.
Again I'm not discussing if this remake is justifiable or not, I'm talking about how saying that a remake of the game wouldn't look much better is utter nonsense.Couldn't all of these be applied to a brand new game rather than a third re-release of an existing game?
I was like "yeah, Sony made a right decision not proceding with TLOU remake" and then apparently it's still being made at Naughty Dog lol
Agreed
It's in the article and in the first post? One team at Bend is helping out on ND's 'multiplayer game' and another team is is working on a new game of their own (instead of working on Uncharted).
The PS OT threads got me way to excited for a sci fi Naughty Dog game.I mean..."organic growth" they say. But for what? to have more teams working on milking all their IPs? lmao.
This plan would make sense if they were acquiring studios and having some "new blood". But not like this...
So did they scuttle the new Uncharted project, or was that also absorbed by ND?
Yeah, I don't know either.
- Biggest console launch ever in history
- DS Remake + new Spider-Man game
- Gave Housemarque the money and resources, the fans demanded for years
- GoW Ragnarok coming sooner than we thought
- Sony is leading US, EU and Asia markets
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
They already did with DS, not sure about the sales numbers but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't like the world on fire.This also circles around the news that Kojima is looking for a deal with Microsoft. This is just speculation but I wouldn't be surprised if Sony wasn't available to negotiate a deal because they don't want to take risks with Kojima's weird and experimental ideas.
They already did, this summer they opening the expansion baySony can do no wrong. It's one screw up after another. Why have they not addressed the storage issue on PS5.
This is my stance on it too, really, even as someone who is into Returnal. You don't have a "risky offering" by occasionally tossing out one or two risky games. At least, that was not the case in the PS2 or PS3 eras. If you only put out a few risky/niche titles, all the more likely it is that your investment in doing so will have less of an impact because it will only be able to hit on a few niches rather than several.This is assuming that Returnal appeals to everyone. People want a wider variety of risk-taking projects so ones that appeal to them will hit the market. Returnal isn't a magic bullet solution to the problem.
Appreciate you.

I believe I should get to helm Uncharted 5. It would be about Sully in Latin America in the 1970s. It would be like ridiculously good.
Because I would gather it's not such a major issue to address. It may be an balancing issue for some but it's not a "problem".Sony can do no wrong. It's one screw up after another. Why have they not addressed the storage issue on PS5.
Hermen is making the worst decisions even after taking the risk of Horizon himself. IncredibleI don't understand. That "secret San Diego studio" is the same as VASG? If not, is it mentioned in the article at all? What are they doing? Jason says it never was Uncharted (which I find is a relief).
It's fucking COLD to learn that they actually had, at one point in time, not very far from now, both Uncharted and TLoU remakes in the making. Both taking time from Naughty Dog instead of letting them do new things. While at the same time not let other studios do new things either. What the FUCK have they been thinking? Hermen, this is not the way.
At least since then, Bend seems to be working on something new and original, which IS the way. And probably there's something more at ND aside from Factions and the remake nobody asked for, and that thing is the real deal. I can only hope.
I'm fine right now with having to wait yes or yes until I can get a ps5. No hurry for me.
I mean, Death's Stranding deal with Sony was in 2015-16. It's entirely possible (and probable) that Sony is in a stance of taking less risks and different projects 5 years later.They already did with DS, not sure about the sales numbers but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't like the world on fire.
You know, I actually regret my purchase of a PS5 at this point. I just do not like the direction Sony is going right now. I have zero interest in any of these blockbuster titles.
I'm sensing sarcasm.... which I don't understand? It's shedding light on stories we would otherwise never know about, which is what good reporting is all about. The gaming industry can sometimes miss that good reporting, so I'll always applaud the folks who deliver interesting stories like this.I agree, great insight about two Bend departures and a 30 men canned project.
"Bend's developers feared they might be absorbed into Naughty Dog, and the studio's leadership asked to be taken off the Uncharted project. They got their wish last month and are now working on a new game of their own."Remember a few years ago when Sony were saying how they let the devs do what they want to do? It is really weird to me that Hulst (who got his promotion after Sony let them do what they want) would do the opposite.
God, what a mess this has been.
Day one.I believe I should get to helm Uncharted 5. It would be about Sully in Latin America in the 1970s. It would be like ridiculously good.
Yeah, development with no consequences will likely result in a shit ton of shovel ware trash, and studios that just can't get it right living on and on and on eating up capital that can be put to better use.Please, dont take this as console warring: for things like these, the Game Pass model makes more and more sense. Big games budget is growing exponentialy and therefore the risks associated. If you have a source of income that is independent of the success (as of units sold) of the game, this is mitigated.
You can use the machine for third party games and honestly, blockbuster titles were their thing last gen. The difference this gen will be that they will pay (moneyhat) third party developers to develop creative titles for them instead of doing it themselves. Or just straight up lock multiplat games for their platform which is pretty shitty but it is what it is.You know, I actually regret my purchase of a PS5 at this point. I just do not like the direction Sony is going right now. I have zero interest in any of these blockbuster titles.
ND isn't making games for Xbox. Yet!Appreciate you.
I hope they let it rest for now so ND can focus on new IP. Starfield, or whatever.
This!So i thought about it.
After seeing the huge, huuuuuge success Witcher 3 had after the Netflix series released, i can see why Sony wants a better looking game alongside the series.
As long as this is not NDs major project and they have something else cooking, i'm fine with this.
You can say the exact same thing about Horizon: Zero Dawn lol. None of that means anything about what the game actually sold.
