Why don’t you hire designers who can design games instead of designers who are good at implementing every manager’s ideas and c-suite business goal? There is a threshold of tolerance beyond which your business strategy priorities become incompatible with a game anyone wants to play. Nobody plays games to make you money, so if you make games to make you money, nobody will want to play them.
There’s something oddly heart warming about seeing massive companies produce utter flops and lose millions.
We don’t want your dross.
They know what we want. A game where any dlc is cosmetic only. A game where there are no micro transactions at all. Something that will run on a older PC without any performance problems. Something without an online requirement.
They know what we want but that is something they are unwilling to build.
I want to agree with you because that’s what I want too. Unfortunately, the financial success of f2p microtransaction infested pseudo-games tells the majority of players are just fine with that bullshit.
Children and horny nerds are fine with it.
Was Concord trying to corner the horny nerds?
Mature/elderly people don’t care either. Nor do casual mobile players. Basically everyone except the former gamer populace plays these games.
IIRC, the Concord devs were pretty good about MTX. They refused to add a battle pass even, for example. That obviously isn’t enough though.
I don’t want either of those things
What do you want from Sony?
A Resistance game following some of the trends put forth by the Doom remakes.
A Killzone game that brings back some of the platforming mechanics from games like Titanfall 2.
Crash, Sackboy, Daxter and Clank indie-style metroidvanias and platformers.
A new Tearaway
A new Gravity Rush
A Grand Turismo 4 Remaster, or at least one that isn’t shit.
Call Capcom up and talk about an exclusive Resident Evil that only works with your exclusive PS5 controller.
Call Remedy up and get a good original 3rd person shooter.
Like, be awesome again, Sony.
I’d get their games for PC if they didn’t have a compulsory PSN account login.
Yeah I really don’t get why Fromsoft hitched that game so tightly to Sony. They were already on the map!
Sony has some deep pockets I guess
We all know Dark Souls was a hit, but maybe From wasn’t quite sure they would be able to capture lightning in bottle twice. So they played safe and signed another deal with Sony.
When you think about it, that worked well for them. DS2 wasn’t as good as DS1, but Bloodborne was HUGE.
yeah makes sense. and so was DS3, which a lot of people compared to bloodborn
you can always pirate it if thats your issue
It’s been a long time since I gave Sony money, but if they did release Bloodborne on PC I would buy it on day one. It seems like emulation will be a reality before that.
They will ask you to log in to a Sony account.
fitgirl music intensifies
Okay?
That means you get the chance of playing the game in exchange of your data or not playing it at all because you live in most of the world where Sony accounts aren’t even available.
Ahh yeah, that’s a pretty big oversight on their part. You’d think they would want your money.
Porting it to another platform, I understand.
But I can’t understand the clamour for yet another remaster, in a generation full of them.
Superfluous remasters are one thing, but Bloodbourne desperately needs one. I have 2,000+ hours across all of From’s games but I can’t put more than 30 minutes into Bloodbourne before the FPS issues are too irritating for my eyes to keep playing (not hyperbole).
Fixing that alone would be huge, but porting to PC and giving it the full DSR treatment (QoL + GFX upgrades) on top of that is guaranteed to make enormous profit.
People don’t have a desire for “remasters”, they desire remasters of singular titles. Remasters existing for separate games doesn’t change that, no matter how many there are.
Eh, it’s because of what Bloodborne is, and the state of it. Improper frame pacing with a 30FPS cap, even if you bought a new PS5 to play it (because it’s not available on PS4).
A cleaned up patch for newer gen hardware to unlock it would be enough, but a remaster is more likely to appeal to Sony.
they should fix their game for free because it is broken in the first place, instead of fixing it then slapping a remastered sticker on it so they can sell it again at full price.
100%. I’m also honestly a bit worried about any remaster they may announce. Bluepoint did a wonderful job in many areas with Demon Souls, but there were definitely some “enhancements” that didn’t exactly match the authorial intent of the original.
Ideal world, I’d love both, good access to a high quality original, and a top-tier remaster of a classic.
Fortunately ShadPS4 looks to be saving the day here, by giving us the ability to emulate the original with patches to fix the glaring issues. Still sucks if you’re sitting there on PlayStation though.
All that said, I don’t expect anyone to touch the original officially. From Soft have moved on, and Sony holds the publishing rights. If BluePoint isn’t interested, it’ll continue to be the elephant in the room.
Upscaling and higher frame rate is all I really want. Sony may do it eventually but lately they have that PSN account requirement bundled in. They always gotta add something shitty to any good they do.
Not much of a gamer myself, but I can understand the appeal of getting an updated version of one’s favorite game.
They’ve got Lego Horizons coming this year and Lego Horizons Remastered next year. They’ll be fine!
I would give my mind to a cosmic horror to get BB in at least 60fps or higher. The biggest agony of it is it’s the only one in the entire catalogue that’s locked to 30.
Look up “ShadPS4 bloodborne” It’s an emulator for the ps4 (obviously) and the developers are basically speedrunning to get it to run bloodborne at 60fps. Right now it requires a beefy PC and has some minorgraphical issues, but considering that a month ago it was unplayable I have high hopes
Why not give your mind to
usthe cosmic horrors right now? We have cookies. :-DYou’re not one of them Starry Wisdom bastards are you? I joined that
cultchurch and they wouldn’t even let me look through their occult library.You are asking if I am the basis for their religion? Well actually, before time existed I…
Oh no, you meant to ask if I am just a follower? No, I am definitely not merely a low-level follower of that cult. Definitely that is a true statement.
Either/or. I’m disgruntled either way.
It’s probably for the best. You sound not insane enough to be a true one of
ourtheir members. 🙃
I’m not someone who stresses about frames very much, but going back to Bloodborne at 30fps feels bad.
My fear is that they will fix the chalice dungeon exploit. I’m perfectly willing to admit I am not good enough to beat it without that.
What exploit?
There’s a bunch of hacked chalice dungeons you can join that essentially give you unlimited blood echoes.
I fk why they don’t like money.
Destimy has a “Plague doctor” skin on sale for the “hunter” class this episode. (or this week? no idea.)
Just saying…
How did such a thing happen?
So do y’all want originals or more remakes and sequels? Make up your minds
Obviously both
So you want everything slower?
Or do you expect the already overworked developers to work double as hard?
