Trying to chase the Call of Duty money when there's only so much money in the world and Inafune convincing/poisoning everyone there to westernize games and let me say again wanting Call of Duty numbers for everything led them astray with some dumb ideas. They now have regained the confidence in owning what they are good at, making MHW a big fucking success and their household names getting crtitical and wide-spread acclaim should tell them enough about what's actually succesful.
Yeah, this.
By the time DD2 would be ready (early 2021 probably) it could just be crossgen.
Would rather they put all their efforts into making it next-gen, cross-gen titles get held back by technology and I can only imagine how it would look with the RE Engine or MT Framework on the next gen systems. Who knows if its even being thought of or worked on?
It took Capcom 3.5 years before they moved past crossgen on PS4/XB1. Don't expect it be different for PS5/Scarlet.
To be fair this is a different Capcom in the past few years, one making sound decisions and not as dependent on fraudulent DLC practices. Regardless who knows, as long as we get a Dragon's Dogma 2 then that's all that matters.
I'd rather it more stylized than what this engine does, but a new AAA Breath of Fire with a stylized toonish look, bright colors and get Tatsuya Yoshikawa as character designer and art director.
Capcom strategy is always reuse existing in house engine ( otherwise unreal ). I doubt they make their own engine for dev 2. Either RE engine or unreal ( or MT Framework to certain extend ).
MT Framework has a dedicated team outside the Dev groups. Maybe they take over RE Engine from Dev 1. Or maybe they make a new engine for nextgen/MH6.
