@FinneasGH i would assume it includes IP and Team Acquisition cost from probably monsters. Needless to say tho, huge waste of time and money as many 2nd party games could have been made with that
They are a super expensive team to run with where they are located and the people they have hired. Probably 25-30 million a year and based on last game could be 8 years out from anything new and no great anticipation on anything from them. Don’t see this one surviving and if they do its gonna be trimmed down and i would rebrand and name the studio
What the hell is this generation? I’d take Days gone over Horizon but seriously putside Asobi and Insomniac are any of the studios making anything? Is next year just gonna be remasters and the flop that will be havens game
Is horizon being ported to switch? Its on PS4, its already on PC. What more reason could there be? Also they could just say remaster one of the stranded PS3 series if they want to give new employees a training project to work on.
@IOI it was outsold by an annualized Sports game that most casuals mindlessly buy every year. It was never going to outsell that which probably sold 5+million on PS alone
I dont think the Uk and Europe itself is the best indicator anymore. Seems like many have checked out on gaming as a whole there. Sales have been demonstrably down since the start of PS4 for those territories
There still has been nothing from this bungie purchase. All they have done is eat at the profit margins and cause that stir in the ecosystem. They could have 10 individual studios and good sized games in development for single player at bungies headcount
Comes at a time when we are lucky to see 1 new single player from a 1st party studio in a generation and sony had been seemingly trying to turn more of their teams into live service games. Seriously though if they havent already fire the character designer
Is anyone playing this game? It had like 600 people on steam which already slashed in half. Expensive project for maybe a few thousand pc sales and few more on PS
Might not break 1000 on steam. The power of Day and date on PC!!! Also everything points to this thing being a brutal result. Wonder what happens to firewalk and Sony hopefully going full force down this path
The better it does in china/korea etc the better chance we get premium games from developers there. This gen has been completely reliant upon asian devs as western devs for the most part have plummetted and no longer make games for the actual playerbase
@WhiteRabbit what does it play like. Dark souls with levels or is it sekiro which is all parrying and no ways to grind? Busy with other stuff and replaying DS3 to walk my brother through his first time lol
Outside of kingdom come, their games are always bland, uninspired and frankly boring. Its a competitive market and if your games are as lackluster as embracers have been, yeah your gonna have a bad time
@RoomWithaMoose well there console is selling less and less, and getting further to maybe half a million per quarter. Add that with people less likely to upgrade to the next one with this news might do that. Their playerbase has already become pc and not the console
No need for 8TB. Download and delete. 2TB would be nice sweet spot as some games are 100+ so having the sports games and multiplayer with friends need more than 1 tb but not 8
Not really suppler interested in this one anyway. The new game that has any remote interest for me is avowed. Either way, i’ll probably do a free month of GP with points when that comes out and try both at no cost. Plus i need to find some use for the damn thing
A simple remaster of the trilogy would be fine. The big item i would change is the time clock on lightning returns. Needless to say just get these on modern playstation. One less game that i pull the xbox out for.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for September 2024?
Very big on the JRPG fix for me. Glad to finally see something from a big 1st party and cant wait for Ghost.

Re: Astro Bot Update 1.003 Is Available to Download on PS5 Now
Just got the Platinum. Waiting to see if they add DLC. Great game but that final challenge run was frustrating

Re: Reaction: PlayStation Needs to Take a Long, Hard Look at Itself
Time to old yeller FireWalk. Let Media Molecule and Haven perform the act as a reminder.
Or flipside, let bend studio take their anger out on them as their game sold 8+ million copies and got grief over it
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Star Wars Outlaws?
Fallen out of Ubisoft games for myself.
