That would be interesting. I do think Sony studios are very one dimensional at the moment. Branching out a bit from the same type of AAA game a bit couldn't hurt. Xbox could have been accused as being one dimensional as well with FPS type games, but recently they have shown a commitment to other genres.
What issue? If people buy these games and they keep making sequences that people love what's wrong?
Why Remake when you could have:I would like a The Last of Us: Remake
They just released Ghost of Tsushima and Dreams last year, Returnal is out in a few weeks
You need new IP's, new blood. Some of the most beloved games are new IP's. Same for movies. Some are fine but when 75-90% are remakes, ports, remasters, sequels, spin-offs etc.....then the industry will stagnate and may not die but will not be very exciting or fun. Just look at the releases over the last 2 years and it is terrible. Very little in the way of new IP's for AAA games. Some good indies but that's it.
This remake shit needs to die. I have no interest in replaying games and stories I played already. I want freshness.
Dreams was good (I own it, as I do Ghosts) but no one cared about that unfortunately. Ghosts was the one true great new IP. If we could only get more great new IP's, that would allow for great sequels along with new IP's. Keeps everything fresh.
Depends on the gamer.
A reboot of this would be great with the gameplay feel of MGSV.
It never occurred to me at the time that Naughty Dog would go back to source material. The only reason I could see to remake The Last of Us so soon is to change it - and as I said above, I don't think Druckmann is looking to change it for the better. The optimist in me wants to believe it's just to bring the game up to modern standards so it can live on; the cynic in me thinks it's to try and salvage The Last of Us 2's mixed reception by making the first game fall inline and back it up. Druckmann's co-president of Naughty Dog now; if he wants to George Lucas the fuck out of The Last of Us, I doubt anyone could stop him.
I'm hearing this forever. There's plenty of new titles across the board. This generation are a bunch of whinners. Ghost of Tsushima, Bloodborne, Days Gone, Dreams, new vr games...
Now that I've removed the name of the game from your post, it makes it harder for one to know if you're talking about an Ubisoft game, EA game, Nintendo game, or Sony game. Enjoy.
I have yet to purchase a next gen console, but I have to agree. Team Green is much more tempting at the moment.
Lol we all know which one he's referring to. That game immediately comes to mind.
I just beat Bloodborne recently. Usually patches that improve games release right after I beat and am done with them. You’ll probably get a patch soon.
I think "backed" and "developed" are two very different things though. It does seem like they are pushing their own studios to produce blockbuster type games only, and are filling out the AA and indies by partnering or doing timed exclusives.
As long as SIE doesn't have any control over them.
He believes in generations...and re-releasing TLOU on every one.
Huh? Im taking about Days Gone making profit, doesnt make it a successful investment. Something that guy clearly doesnt understand.
Uh, Bloodborne was 6 years ago. VR doesn't move the needle, Days Gone and Dreams were underperforming. Again, this isn't a Sony only issue but industry-wide. Gamers flock to sequels and rehashes, ports etc....that is great for the publishers but eventually the gamers will move on and something else will need to take hold. Sequels are fine if there are new IP's to make sequels of.
I get that. The gamers are lemmings and won't try new games. Hence, publishers not taking chances. They want the sure bet of a remake, sequel etc..... It is not going to end up good.
