Here at PlayStation we strive for making boring ass third person cinematic games with ugly ass characters, and horrible writing! Remember that 20 year old game you use to play as kid? Well now we remade it, while also ripping the very soul from the artstyle! Whats that? You don't like the last of us? Well too bad because we are remaking part 2! (With even more IDF propaganda!)

Eh? You want brand new games? Uhhhh how about a god of war trilogy remake? How about a god of war without kratos? You get to play a character who had less that 5 minutes of screentime! How amazing!"

Whats going on with the new intergalactic game made by an jewish cuck? uuhhhh stay tuned! For the meantime, heres more games from the horizon series!

Huh? Ratchet and clank? Killzone? Slycooper? SOCOM? Bloodborne? Nigga get the fuck out my face with that shit!

The Bloodborne “remake” will be a worse version of the game and will be a digital-only PS6 exclusive at launch, just like Demon’s Souls was for the PS5, and Sony will burn in Hell for ruining both of those games
 
I am eating damn good with the kojima news
I like all the metal gear games, I love the weird story and perverted shit. I like the guy shitting his pants in every game. I like death stranding. I think zone of the enders is really cool. Thank you jeetGODDESS Asha Sharma for funding his next games so I can play them on PC.

Is the person in charge over there at sony actively trying to tank the company?

I feel like Kojima probably wanted them to release a physical edition of Physint which triggered them and the higher ups immediately asked to terminate their partnership no matter how big of an L that would be and the amount of money they would hemorrhage.

One day they'll learn that the game is finished and all that was "cut" is the Phantom Pain, and Kojima is the man who sold the world.

Oh, I've argued for years that the MGS V we got is the same MGS V we would have gotten if Kojima had stuck around.

But either way the game would have always *felt* unfinished after 5 years and 80-100 million dollars because Kojima is a fucking hack who is more concerned with an obvious twist ending than making a good game or coherent narrative.

They seemed to know what worked during the PS1, PS2 and PS3 era, which developers to bring on board and support, which features to emphasize etc.

They really didn't have any better idea back then, either. The difference is that it was just easier for them. A lot of big name developers were frustrated with Nintendo because of their hardware restrictions, licensing agreements and because Nintendo wouldn't/couldn't give them big production budgets, so Sony just threw money at these people. They really had no better idea on what made a game good themselves, their thing was that they allowed all the developers they partnered with total creative freedom, which led to a lot of slop but also a lot of good games.

Microsoft did the same thing. A lot of people think Microsoft tanked Rare because the suits got too involved in micromanaging their productions. No, Microsoft were actually very hands off with Rare in the beginning. But then every game Rare made for them flopped, so the suits at Microsoft began micro-managing them and that's when Rare really began to tank because the suits at Microsoft are idiots.

Difference between then and now is that Sony's inexperience as an actual video game developer is starting to tell now that production costs are absolutely astronomical and Sony can't recoup their investments after several high profile failures. Their thing was that they allowed developers creative freedom. Now they can't afford to allow them creative freedom because a PS5 game flopping is significantly more costly to them than a PS1/PS2 game flopping would have been

But Sony don't know shit about video games, don't know what made Demon's Souls work in the first place, didn't have the instinct to realise that Bluepoint were incompetent

Demon's Souls Remake and the acquisition of Bluepoint happened under Jim Ryan's leadership. I'm not quite sure what you're complaining about here. Would you be happier if the new leadership kept the incompetent developers that butchered Demon's Souls on the payroll?

You might have something of a point if Sony didn't continue to make and fund shit that is way worse.

A lot of the games PS has been working on were in development long before Jim Ryan left. Marathon, Wolverine, God of War Luffey, and Intergalactic were deep into development by the time the new Japanese executives settled in. You're delusional if you think they can shut down all of their flagship studios all at once and subsequently cancel projects that have already received hundreds of millions in funding. They can however end their partnership with Kojima because development on his new game started shortly after he shat out DS2.

Way worse? In what regard? Kojima Productions makes woke leftist movie games (the thing everyone likes to complain about) and he even hired Debra Wilson for DS2. It's been 11 years since he's made a good game, that being MGSV, but that was a Konami game. He's currently making a game called OD with Jordan Peele, who has explicitly said that he refuses to put White people in leading roles.

PlayStation needs more games like Astro Bot and Stellar Blade, and less games like Death Stranding.

They can end their partnership with Kojima because he's independent. They have massive sunk cost with their flagship studios

Yes, and a lot of the studios under Sony's umbrella, they do the same shit. But, unlike Kojima, they have never once made a good game.

  • Guerilla made Killzone.
  • Sucker Punch made Sly and Infamous.
  • Naughty Dog made Crash and Uncharted.
  • Santa Monica made God of War.
  • Insomniac made Spyro, Ratchet & Clank, Sunset Overdrive, and Spider-Man.
These legacy studios, Kojima Productions included, are the same type of cancer. They're kept around for their name alone even though they're incapable of making the type of games that granted them a big name to begin with.
 
It seems like every game outlet is shitting on Wolverine for being a boring corridor simulator with shit writing and giving it around a 6... which, when you take into account the extra point or two that comes from every mainstream loving to soypog over their narrative slop and the better men bump, is not that great. It seems like only the small ass websites that are probably afraid to shit on sony are giving it anything above a 7, usually with some variation of 'yeah, it kinda sucks... but oh my god, Marvel guys! I get to be the heckin Wolverino!!!!!!"

Tough week for Snoys.

But who will make the remake?
They closed blue point for good, unless they buy another studio that they'll close within two games, I can hardly imagine that they'll even remake that game.
Plus, what's even the point of remaking that game, the 4 idiots memeing it ad-nauseam have already played it to exhaustion and I don't think people will just somehow gain an sweet tooth for souls games after being completely burnt by the elden ring debacle where most people who bought the game didn't like it because souls games are mediocre garbage by design.

I have a love/hate relationship with Kojima and his games. He's one of the last auteurs of gaming left, but he's also a pretentious hack that has gotten way too high on his own farts.

I love Kojima games because of the fun gameplay loops, quirky mechanics and attention to detail (even for things that don't really matter that much). People may hate on him for Death Stranding, but it takes real talent to turn delivering packages into an engaging mechanic. Even his pre-MGS1 games are all great fun, and most importantly, radically different from each other.

Where Kojima fails for me is in the writing, the man needs an editor/tard-wrangler to take his ideas and turn them into an actual script, with pacing and reasonable length. Kojima without adult supervision tends to go full retard, and Konami was right to kick his ass out considering how much money he burned on developing MGSV.

I hate the pants shitting guy because they married him to Merryl, and I also hate what he did to the poor woman in 4. Zone of the Enders 1 takes all the worst aspects of Evangelion's writing and ramps them up to 11, second game is actually fun though. Death Stranding is just gibberish, could have cut away all the dumb weird shit and just let me be a postman in the post-apocalypse, fighting off feral niggers trying to steal people's Amazon Prime packages.

I am curious to see what he'll do with his tranny horror game and this MGS ripoff (didn't he whine for years that he was tired of making MGS games?), if nothing else they will be unique, though I have grave misgivings about letting Kojima write the plot for either without someone to filter out the autism.

I really can't see this as true honestly. Like at least at the end, it's pretty obvious that the last half of the game is padded out with literal copy paste weird missions, I stopped playing there.
