RIP Sony? Anonymous 04/14/21 (Wed) 21:01:07 No.1153 [Reply]

Some news about the direction of Playstation and upcoming games

Shreier revealed they are shifting further toward AAA movie games:
>Japan Studio being downsized, Sony no longer interested in niche Japanese titles
>Naughty Dog is working on Uncharted 5, a new multiplayer game and a remake of The Last of Us
>The Visual Arts Service Group wanted to form their own studio but their first project was handed to Naughty Dog instead
>Bend (Eidetic) aren't working on anything of their own and are now a support studio for Naughty Dog

The next Kojima Productions game might not be on Playstation:
>Xbox rumored to be publishing Kojima's next game
>Xbox is on the record wanting more Japanese studios / games
>Ludens figure on Phil Spencer's shelf next to Xbox logo (pic related)

Is there any salvaging 9th gen for Sony at this point?

The TES 6 trailer came out a few years ago but we haven't heard anything since. Looks like it's gonna be set in another boring human province anyway so I'm not expecting too much from it. As for Starfield we know basically nothing other than that it's going to be one of Bethesda's RPGs in their usual engine but with a sci-fi theme

I had a dream the other night that a version of Fallout New Vegas existed but in the style of the OG Fallout games. The Strip was amazing, it gave the same feeling as like New Reno in that you got this real big city vibe. The models were all clean and pristine and it had 9 separate areas.

But the dream got me thinking, there are tons of modders that make mods for old retro gaymes. Sometimes its literally just one guy and they are release mods that are the scope of a full game. So if one guy can do that why couldnt some of these companies put together games in the old school style with just a small dev team ? Release them at a target price of like 20 dollars in a digital form.

I think a lot of people want an isometric version of NV since there's a lot of fan art. I don't mind the game we got though, was pretty good considering they only got 18 months of development time and had to work with recycled FO3 assets.
>So if one guy can do that why couldnt some of these companies put together games in the old school style with just a small dev team ?
I guess because modders do it out of passion rather than for profit, and there isn't as much profit to be made in that style of game these days. Plus even when it does happen it's usually shit (look at most of Obsidian's games post NV for example).

Yeah, Nv is a great game. Obsidian was literally setup to fail and they made something far better than anything Bethesda has released since Morrowind.

>there isn't as much profit to be made in that style of game these days
Yeah I dont deny that its a niche market but thats why they develop with a $20 price point in mind. Also I feel like a lot of people like playing older games but often times console backwards compatibility makes it hard. I think if some game company started throwing out feelers for a retro style digital market they would get positive feedback. All Zoomers need is to see one of their favorite streamers to stream it and the game will take off.
>>1199
I have heard of Wasteland 3. From what I have seen of it I don't think it qualifies as a "small retro" game. Seems more like a game with an actual budget and a $60 release.
I was thinking something more along the lines of UnderRail. I have seen in on sale a number of times below 10 dollars and have heard all positive things from it. The main thing is I hate that high saturated pixel art that all "le indie devs" seem to use, it really turns me off from a game.

Like I said it's already happening. Activision and Sega have been outsourcing remakes to budget studios. Ubisoft and EA release the odd indie game occasionally. Even Konami is getting in on it (pic related). It's a good idea and we'll probably see more of it as game streaming becomes popularized

Dying Lulz 2 Anonymous 02/24/21 (Wed) 16:26:21 No.795 [Reply]

Some guy did a report investigating what's happening with Dying Light 2, found out Techland management are mad lads:

>Over the course of my investigation, multiple people independently shared a story of an artist who turned in some work that management disliked. The feedback they received was "pedalski", which translates to "too f**got-like". In another meeting, the team was discussing the "modern dark ages'' - one of the core design pillars of Dying Light 2 - and one lead blurted out, “At least they knew how to deal with women back then!”. It’s hard to feel like complaints about sexism are being taken seriously when the main feature of the CEO’s office is a photo of a naked woman next to a cheetah. (pic related)

>Marchewka (CEO of Techland) is an ideas man, and he had some ideas to promote Dying Light 2. One plan was to drive an unmarked van down to the Mexican border and offload a pile of body bags, sparking a macabre ARG that would eventually reveal itself to be part of the game’s marketing campaign. Another idea that was floated, just around the start of the pandemic, was to send out medical test kits. People would test themselves and get results back telling them whether or not they were susceptible to the game’s fictional pathogen. Because the kits were for real diseases, though, you might also find out you have something seriously wrong with you.

On the not so funny side Dying Light 2 is a disaster and will probably end up like Cyberjunk:

>Another person who worked on Dying Light 2 for multiple years tells me they “have no idea what the final game will be, or what the story is. It’s changed so much. People kept quitting, getting fired.” The reveal of Dying Light 2 promised a tangled web of choice and consequence, where one playthrough will only allow players to see 50 percent of the game’s content, but much of that has been stripped back.

>“What is going on in Techland is just total chaos, not iteration. There are plenty of examples where there is someone responsible for a given feature - like a game director decides on something - but Pyza and Marchewka just overwrite this because of some bullshit reason, like they've seen something working differently in other games so we can do it like that.”

You like a shit genre of games which don't hold up outside of nostalgia. Fallout is a walking sim with terrible combat stacked on top of it. Which has become the dominant genre of late and is why so many people are annoyed with gaming on the whole. They don't make swift 10 hour experiences any more, they make skyrim or dark souls knock offs lasting 40+ hours where the majority of it is the game playing it's self.

RE2 and Super hot 2 both came out in the last few years. MSGV is no where near to either of them in terms of quality.

Open world imo is good in concept. People have always wanted non-linear games with as much freedom as possible, and open worlds are an attempt to realise that. But in 99% of cases it isn't executed well because it's based around systems like quest markers and fast travel which eliminate the need to make the map actually interesting. There's also the fact that because it's the popular thing right now it often gets forced into games where it doesn't belong. But it isn't unusual in the industry for companies to make generic copies of the popular thing. It was only about 10-15 years ago for example that every fucking game was a generic FPS thanks to the popularity of Halo and CoD. Go back even further and there were a shit ton of generic JRPGs everywhere trying to copy Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest etc.

The problem is size, maps are way too big with too much filler content. You could easily cut Skyrim's map in half and still include EVERY memorable location and quest

That's why I personally think Morrowind is the best example of a good open world game. You have a small map but with a lot of content, fast travel uses in-game systems rather than just magically teleporting to the destination and the lack of quest markers means the map needs to be filled with notable landmarks for the directions make sense. Of course it still has all kinds of flaws but it's the best open world game so far imo

What were your thoughts on the PlayStation Portable and PS Vita? Did you think it was good or bad? Do you have any favorite games or experiences with them?

Me, I thought that it was really good and interesting concept, especially the Vita. It tried and did a lot of things interestingly. I'm a little upset that it got discontinued, since they were the only challenge against Nintendo. Vita just needed more games to remain competitive.

I personally think it's fine in any situation. Why would you spend money on something you can get for free with no negative repercussions? Especially when you're getting a better experience with pirating most of the time since you don't have to deal with Steam/Epic Games/whatever other shitty DRM frontends. Maybe I can understand if it's some small indie studio you want to support, but feeling an obligation to give money to multi-million dollar corporations is just retarded.
