My guess is Kurt Margenau is directing a new IP that will release hopefully soon and Neil is working on TLOU3 (& TLOU S2/S3)

I just don't like the visuals. There was a rumor saying that Ubisoft was working on an Ori and the blind forest PoP game, so I was visualizing something closer to that regarding the graphics.

@KaijuKaiser All good xD

@KaijuKaiser These are not unrealistic expectations. When you consider the fact that this is a PS5 exclusive and look back at the reveal trailer (even if it's in-engine), it just doesn't look like the generational leap that you would expect from a "next-gen" game. When you compare to the leap that the Arkham games made between AC and AK, there's no comparison.

Maybe they'll collab with Bioware for dat Anthem mechanic xD

@Matej Gotcha, thanks!

@JaphyRider Rumors of a Cassie Uncharted game are flying around so who knows

wait I'm confused, isn't their next game "Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden"

@PlayStationGamer3919 Most likely will be a new Uncharted game by a different studio with Cassie as the main character

@nessisonett Could be worth giving it a second go. I only played it a bit when it came out and stopped real quick. However, for the past 5-6 months its been my go to gaas game

I'm so curious as to what they'll be working on. Also curious to see how Rocksteady fares with them leaving...

Maybe they'll work for Sony... That'd be good talent to acquire.

@get2sammyb Is the warning "Hogwarts Legacy does not exist in a vacuum..." because of JK Rowling?

If they have nothing this year, then man, what a massive letdown

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I'm really hoping this Co-op mode isn't going to be in Spider-Man 2 but a separate Spidey multiplayer project instead.

Looks neat, but still not worth 70 bucks. I'll be waiting for a price drop, not in a hurry to get it, plenty of PS5 games to catch up on and look forward to

@nessisonett the leaks have to be legit. I guess we'll see whenever ND releases official footage if theres anything to be excited about gameplay wise, but so far it ain't lookin good

@DeepSpace5D All good, Thanks

@DeepSpace5D Oh didn't know, Thanks
Do you have a link to the full article, looks like an interesting read

@DeepSpace5D Ya, I wish publishers shared in greater detail information regarding sales for their games. I hate when they tell us "this franchise sold this much". I wish they could tell us how much each game did individually.

Like the most recent numbers we have for Spiderman PS4 is 13.2M copies by Aug 2019 and for Miles Morales 6.5M by July 2021 (19.7M). But both combined sold 33M.

Same with The Last of Us. First game on PS3 sold 7M, PS4 version sold 1M, then whole franchise sold 20M. It's like ok, but how much for each.

I like it more the way CDPR did it with W3. Game sold, as of April 2021, over 30 million copies, while the series as a whole sold over 50 million. At least we know 60% of sales are W3.

@DeepSpace5D I didn't see what other people's responses were to you. Overall, I agree with your take but it's hard to say how much of an impact both of our arguments have on sales.

I wouldn't be able to quantify how much of an impact post launch content would have on sales just like I wouldn't be able to quantify how much of an impact a pre-established IP would have on a sequel's sales figures.

I can definitely see how adding multiplayer for free could make new players interested in the game. On the other hand, being a sequel to a highly successful game helps a ton. We saw that with GoW which sold like +10M copies in 1 year.

@DeepSpace5D I mean sure but tbf, GoT is a new IP that had to prove itself. TLOU2 had the advantage of being a sequel to a gaming classic that sold incredibly well, received a ridiculous amount of awards and was raved critically. It's not out of nowhere that TLOU2 sold 4M copies in 3 days vs the 2.4M GoT did. The hype was huge for TLOU2.

Honestly, with the Microsoft acquisition of Activision (meaning COD, WoW, Candy Crush, Diablo, Overwatch, Hearthstone...), Sony prob needs to up their Game as a service game and I think Bungie can really help with that. Overall, I'm fine with that as long as they don't pull an EA and say "screw single player games".

@nessisonett Damn you have a cool mom : )

@AFCC Do you have to be Slytherin to use that spell?

@nessisonett tbf it will depend on pretty much anybody if something is worth 70 bucks or not

Not surprised, mediocre action movies generally have an audience

I guess based on this comment section I was the only one that thought the movie was terrible

@naruball True about the 0-1 score, unless the reviewer specifies his criticism is specific to an aspect of the game.

Why is this being compared to the last of us 2? This review bombing is completely out of left field. That wasn’t the case for the last of us part 2 (doesn’t mean there weren’t a bunch of trolls who review bombed tlou2 for no reason, but there were also genuine bad reviews)

@Squanch you're welcome

This pretty much explains it all

@nessisonett Absolutely agree

@nessisonett I don’t think he was literally expecting Oscar worthy level of performance, but even if he did, I don’t think any movie should be held at a lower standard just because of the fact that it’s based on a superhero. Dark knight trilogy is a good example of that.

@nessisonett Probably because of the well-known actors behind the game.

@Deadhunter Its not pessimistic, its realistic.

@nessisonett I mean I'm sure it takes like 2 min...

Free on Epic games btw for those interested

@Milt I wouldn't say the PS event this year was a HUGE disappointment, but it was definitely underwhelming.

I LOVED the prologue when I played it on steam, but when the game came out, I've only heard negative things. Shame.

@Telekill Almost exact same for me. I gave the franchise one last chance with Syndicate (and even that game I didn't wanna buy, only did cause it was 50% off after a month, there were some good reviews and I had gotten everything out of MGS V). Haven't bought any Ubi game since R6S, which is sad, since I used to buy almost every game they would make.

I've tried it and after 2 games uninstalled. It's in a horrible state. Tbf some of my criticism might apply to older PES games, but rn the game feels so sluggish, unresponsive and slow. It's also incredibly ugly looking considering what FIFA 22 looks like (and its not like EA is at the peak of pushing visuals in FIFA games). It also looks pretty identical if not worse than previous PES which makes me wonder why even bother remaking the whole game on the Unreal Engine. Two years for this, really bad.

@darkswabber This is not the same deadshot. Rocksteady's explanation is that the Deadshot from City and Origins (hes not in Knight) was actually a "fake" Deadshot passing for Floyd Lawton (pretty dumb and makes no sense but whatev). I'm willing to give the game a shot as I'm a huge Arkham and Rocksteady fan, plus as we've seen, as long as characters are well written, you can pick ANY character from DC Comics and make it good (The Suicide Squad proved that to an extent).

@Retro1994 Current rumor is WB Montreal is working on a Superman game on top of their Gotham Knights game.

@AFCC Same, my biggest worry regarding this game was LITERALLY that it was gonna be cross gen

@lolwhatno S'all good, I clarified cause I hate Ubisoft and I don't want them to get credit for something legitimately good xD

@lolwhatno Unless something changed, I'm pretty sure the publisher is EA, not Ubisoft.

@kingbreww Well Black Panther was still nominated for Best picture (hilariously) so the chances aren't zero

@FatalBubbles I mean my guess is that Mocap probably didn't restrict them from working on gameplay, level design, open world... Again, not an expert in the matter, but we've heard of mocap late in development. My guess is this game is 2023 (or late 2022), which means we COULD see a glimpse of it this year, but obv no guarantee. They did announce the first game at E3 2016 and release it Sept 2018. Not impossible to see it this year.

Edit: if Sony will actually have an event this year. Starting to get worried.

@get2sammyb Ghost of Ikishima (rumoured) for Sucker Punch, and New IP (rumoured) for Santa Monica

@RavenWolfe81 I don't see how they're trying to get "recognition" for any of this. Just letting people know they are satisfied with the way it runs and are looking into improving further.
