There is no chance this show will be good. Look what happened to Halo. It's like they hated it so much they intentionally made it insulting. Mass Effect is just being abused at this point. It's bad enough the new game will be a fail, but now this. Just let it die already.

If you can't see exaclty why that game failed, then you shouldn't be allowed to make a game. The amount of red flags was obvious from space.

First person means not interested. Wrong studio was assigned to the game.

Nintendo has ALWAYS been a scumbag company. People give them a pass for no reason. Between their gimmicks and making the same games over and over, nobody should be really defending them.

It's like they just want to lose money.

Yeah, just keep putting lipstick on the corpse.

Too busy in emergency meetings trying to figure how to not get shut down for good.

Release it on Steam like it should have been and make money. Sticking with idiot Tim Sweeney and Epic is just bad business. That guy is more worried about his little ego than anything else.

It's the same situation Ubisoft is in with Assassin's Creed Shadows. They delayed it to change things and the first DLC being included means it was already started. They scrapped any other plans at this point. The game will come out and it will be abandoned as fast as they can. This is what happens when you care less about making a good game and are more worried about a checklist.

Translation: DLC was planned but the shear hatred of the game means they are dropping it and running away. EA NEVER misses a chance to nickel and dime. Mass Effect is in so much trouble at this point that the amount of emergency meetings and panic is comical.

Bioware is a dead husk at this point. The only attention they get is negative and EA is just waiting to put the nail in the coffin.

All the delay does is give the haters more time to sharpen their spears. Gamers never forget or forgive. Outlaws is not nearly as bad as people say but it will be better after a few big updates.

I wonder if any of the mouthy developers will have anything to say on Twitter this time. Hopefully they learned their lesson but I doubt it.

Keep failing Sony. It makes for great reading.

Charming PS3 aesthetic = dated graphics. People really need to stop making excuses for bad elements with carefully chosen descriptors. It's poorly made and the only reason it gets any attention is because of Helldivers 2.

This won't save the game. People are already in line with pitch forks and torches after they kill Dragon Age. This is how bad gaming is now. The delay was because the model of release now and patch later is failing. The DLC plans have been mostly scrapped. The first DLC was well underway and is why they are giving it away for free now. The second DLC was probably only in planning stage and it's canceled. This will be a a one and done release with them abandoning it as soon as possible. The fallout from this will be epic though.

The reason older games did so much better was they weren't made by a checklist. Just let creators work and stay out of the way. Nothing like being directed by a greedy suit. If the greedy want money then let developers make good games. The more they interfere, the less money.

Developers needs to stand their ground against pathetic whiners. They need to stop catering to these tantrums. Balancing a game is tricky and it takes time. Maybe if they were any good at the game they would just adapt.

This game is cursed. It would be better to just not release it. They can write it off financially as a loss. Movies have done that several times. It ends up costing them less than releasing them. It strange but when it comes to finances and taxes, there are very creative ways to save money.

If they do release it, I am curious if you can play through the entire game as the same character and if any trophies are tied to a specific character.

I love how Capcom thought this game is so important that people will buy PS Plus to play it. I think Sony had a hand in this bad idea. I think they just want to shut fans up about Dino Crisis. I guess making money is not important anymore. Just like Sony and Bloodborne.

Massively overrated. Death Stranding is not a game. It's the worst quest of an RPG in long form. It's like a really cheap scifi movie made for TV. His other games feel like they were written by a 13 year old bored in math class.

It's sad. Bloodlines deserve a full remake and would sell easily. This sequel will probably kill the IP for good. Too many people trying to make it different than the original which nobody wants. All they have to do is modernize the design of the first one. Developers overthink everything which fails.

They really don't understand basic economic structures?

It's just a countdown to another failure. They can't save this game from the wrath of the fans at this point. No matter how you feel about the character, there was an agenda. That limits creativity and that is why their games keep getting worse. Just let people make a game and stop giving them a checklist from the top.

Not a bug. It was a test to see reaction. Sony is determined to keep doing the wrong things now.

None of this matters. Physical will continue to die no matter what anyone wants.

Hulst has a serious problem since he takes thing personally. If he personaly likes it, it's good. If he doesn't, then it's dead. He didn't like Days Gone so it was dead. Doesn't matter it sold over 8 millions copies, he just didn't like it. He needs to be fired since he lacks professionalism.

Enough to remake Bloodborne and make a sequel. Sony is imploding at this point.

Hermen Hulst is the problem at Sony.

Sony is just lazy and now greedy. The greed should have them making remakes of games people really want like Bloodborne, but for some reason they are just refusing to listen. So many games that would easily sell and need remakes but instead we are getting games that are just them changing a few settings in the graphics options. More reason that PC will always be best.

Sony has to be doing it on purpose at this point. How can you ignore the pile of money that is Bloodborne unless you are just being petty. This is what happens when they go unchecked by competition. The ego is out of control.

Anybody connected to EA in anyway should never be allowed to talk. Incompetence is a job requirement.

@nessisonett Ok, first of all he was a footnote in history. He wasn't a samurai by any accounts. The more important thing is why did they choose him over ANY other notable Japanese samurai in a huge history? They completely ignored centuries of names to pick this one person. If you can't see EXACTLY why they did it then I don't know what to say.

@RoomWithaMoose That's the spirit, keep trying.

@RoomWithaMoose I never said I was upset. I simply pointed out the motive for why they did it. Good try on getting on your soapbox to cause drama. And if you had read my whole message you would have seen that I want them to explore other cultures.

Imagine scouring Japanese history to find one anomaly that you build an entire game off of to just pretend you care about diversity. What a shame. They should have just celebrated the rich Japanese history in this game and made another game devoted to another culture. So many cultures out there with great stories that could be easily woven into a AC game. But that would have cost more than a token gesture.

Sony will not learn anything from this disaster. They will fire some lower people and move on. The meetings will include blaming a toxic gamer space and that gamers are idiots. I'm sure they are already working on the next live service games.

The sad part is they haven't learned the lesson. They will F2P the game and it will fail again. There will be some streamers that will play it and claim it's good just so they can pretend to be the good guys. It will all be fake just for content. Nothing can fix the terrible art design, characters design or the fact it's just a cheap ripoff of Overwatch trying to cash in. Hopefully Sony will just right it off as a failure and move on. There does need to be some people fired but they most likely be the poor devs forced to work on this to make a living. No executives will be removed.

All that is happening right now is a long discussion on how to shut this embarassment down and avoid as much damage as possible. The game is completely dead. There is no saving it. No, the F2P option will not work. They are busy writing a very carefully worded announcement that will attempt to shift blame and make excuses to the market and toxic gamers. They will never admit that every decision was bad. Character design alone should have been a flag. Someone put it out of it's misery so everyone can move on. I'm sure the developer is blaming everyone else for being toxic.

This is exactly what we need to start reminding developers of what people don't want to buy. Live service games need to continue to fail to stop them. The problem is executives are too stupid to understand. This developer clearly should never be trusted to make a decision. Not one person there noticed how truly awful every aspect of this game turned out. The characters are so bad that I think someone needs fired.

Nacon has a history of this very thing. Now you have half a studio signing a letter which might be a death sentence. They will just kill the studio and move on. They don't care.

There isn't much acting in recent movies and shows Amazon. Videogames have better writers and actors that actually care about their roles. Most of them don't get paid well and outperform most celelbrities who only care about money and fame.

Well that studio is dead. Nacon is awful and they won't do anything. Greedfall 2 will never be finished now. What a shame. The first one was fun.

Sony is very greedy which makes the Bloodborne situation worse. They greenlit a full remake of Demon Souls which was shocking but not of Bloodborne. Everybody will buy Bloodborne. It's a pile of cash that Sony is ignoring for some reason. But they spent money on this game. Nothing makes sense now.
