Re: PS5, PC Flop Concord Never Returning, Studio Closed Down

mariomaster96

This has to be the craziest story in gaming I've ever seen:

  • Sony buys a studio that has never put out a game
  • Sony appearently invests an ungodly amount of money into the game
  • Game ends up being the biggest flop I've ever seen and gets delisted less than 2 weeks after release
  • The studio gets shut down

And the saddest part is that the people who greenlit this mess will probably see no consequences

Re: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Might Be the Series' Most Insane Game Yet, Sailing to PS5, PS4 in February

I love how characters like Yagami or Majima just 'conveniently' end up in the very same location as the last game.
Like Yagami has a case in Ijincho after Yakuza 7 and Majima ends up in Hawaii after Infinite Wealth

But jokes aside, it's a good way to put out high quality games in a fast pace, especially since the locations matter less than the characters and side quest

Looking forward to this

Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?

mariomaster96

Nah, the base PS5 is fine enough for me + the price of 800€ (or over 900€ with disc drive) is just insane

Just buy a PC at that point, all first party games release there anyway sooner or later

Re: Rumour: Ubisoft Live Service Shooter XDefiant on Brink of Being Shut Down

@IamJT Yeah, that's something I don't understand how executives seemingly overlook that fact.

E.g. "Let's make a game that is just like Fortnite" why would someone who already plays Fortnite play another game that is just like Fortnite? They'll just continue to play Fortnite. And someone who doesn't already play Fortnite won't play a game that is like Fortnite either

Re: Black Myth: Wukong Becomes Steam's Biggest Ever Single Player Launch

mariomaster96

Reading that headline made me realize how out of touch I've become with gaming over the past few years

Wukong became the most successful singleplayer launch on Steam ever and I've still no clue what this game is about nor have I even seen a second of gameplay. Same happened with that scam game "The Day Before" which was one of the most wishlisted games ever and yet the first time I've heard about it was after it released and eyeryone made fun of it how bad it is
