Please fire Herman Hulst

I know it's bullshit, but it would do Sony good.

I mean, Kamiya returned to Capcom
They can work it out

Y'know, i get you have some kind of story to tell, but you always, always forget about the games. THE GAMES. VIDJA FUCKING GAMES
i just finished gravity rush 1, and Kat wasn't a super boss. she was just a a girl in a world that wasn't her own
Mind you, she has super powered gravity powers, but that's her nature. She's from above

>>723021025
Just hire Toyama back and let him make Gravity Rush 3 and a new Siren

>>723021025
Any shift from the USA to another country would solely be driven by the ability to import more pajeets at lowest cost.

>>723021293
Spoilers for part 2
Which i'll get to again, but i need to finish Lost Paradise first

>>723021375
Played 2 before i played part 1

>>723021293
Kat has unironically more personality than any girlboss character nu-Naughty Dog, Guerrilla, Sucker Punch and Santa Monica Studios ever made

>>723020813 (OP)
Has a japanese publisher trying to shift to western studios ever worked out?
I know it bombed for capcom, sega and squenix and they went back to japanese studios.
Why doesn't this ever work out? Is it some sort of fundamental culture disconnect?

>>723021025
if the top brass admit to their mistake and do pic related then maybe.

>>723021547
>some sort of fundamental culture disconnect?
not "some sort", a very obvious set of differences

Not happening, never ever.

>>723021645
Prease exprain to esl

>>723020813 (OP)
Too late. They almost certainly will shut down all their American studios, every employee is like 3-4x the cost of a Japanese one, often for worse output. It's retarded they ever shifted away from Japan.

>>723020813 (OP)
Well i mean, they are already doing it but a in small scale for now (getting ArcSys to develop the Marvel fighting game and fully funding it, an unbelievable move for trannyfornia PlayStation to do if you think about it)

>>723021547
Sony and PlayStation was always part western in the same way SEGA was. The difference is Sony's music and videogame arm was heavily invested in the UK, it all went to shit when they shifted that to California instead.

>>723021321
too late, he already made a new studio called Bokeh Game

>>723020813 (OP)
That'd be great. Too bad that it's only a rumor and good things never happen in this diarrhea-swallowing industry

>>723021926
Bokeh doesn't have the talent that Japan studio had. I think the best employees scattered all over the place and ended up at places like Nintendo, capcom and FROM. You're never getting those guys back and it's basically impossible to make new AAA studios from scratch these days.

>>723021926

RUMOR

>>723020813 (OP)
Lets not forget that they killed their European studios (Psygnosis, Media Molecole) in favor of their worst (Guerrilla) because of that Hulst faggot

Sony is critically evil.

Xbox is just plain jane evil.

Besides Japan Studio Give me The Getaway 3 from Sony’s quirky UK studios and I’m good. The LONDON/Nip connection during the ps2/ps3 era was kino.

>>723020813 (OP)
It's not like we're ever getting a new Sly Cooper game anyway.

Sony killed all of them, because Dutchmen generic shit like Horizon
Thanks you for your understanding

>>723022291
Hulst has done more damage than Jim Ryan could ever hope to do.

>>723022291
What a retarded move, killed their European and Japanese studios to fund fucking bungie and the rest of their shitty American studios just as America forgot how to make games and became hyper expensive . Meanwhile Europe and Japan begins to dominate gaming, have comparatively cheap workforces and Sony no longer has any presence there.

>>723021926
Sony could just tell them to develop it then, funding the project

>>723020813 (OP)
i would still be wary of sony and would avoid buying any of their new games or consoles... UNLESS they do a deep dozega while fully naked, the entire board of fuck heads has to do it too, if they are willing to go this far, i am willing to forgive them

Is there any chance it won't flop spectacularly?

Snoy should have kept Japan studio, purchased the silent hill ip and let Toyama work on his creation again with a decent budget. Instead they spent a gorillan dollars on literal slop live service studios and burned money for no return.

>>723020813 (OP)
They should had done it right after concord flooped

>>723021494
She hoped some of the guys she met would see her as just a girl, but everyone thought of her as The Gravity Queen
Only one guy tried to get her attention and he tried to be evil about it. Tried to cause implied destruction, just to get her attention
It didnt work out, cause obviously, but the attention she wants, he gave. But she sooned locked him up
Poor shmuck
Sightless chick
Dude would've done anything... and he did, to get her attention
But she was too fixated on others
Such is life
Such is love
The dice are random, and you'll never know what pops up

Mil fps are back why not make another SOCOM?

>>723022362
Why the fuck did they abandon dreams when Roblox is the most profitable game on earth, they literally have a better version of it. They finally make a game that accidentally alligns with the Zeitgeist of the era and they leave it to rot on a dead console.

Sad part is even if this were to happen we won’t see anything substantial out of it until 2035 at the very earliest.

Feel bad for indie devs. The nugamers only want what's pooopular, cause that's all they ever cared about
CAUSE NU GAMER SCUM!!!!
FUCK
THEM
THEY NEVER CARED

>>723023234
What they should have done was released a dreams pc port, pre installed every ps5/ps4 with it like astrobot, made both ps and pc versions completely cross platform and let the money pile in from whatever shit the player base made.

>>723023271
It's impossible anyway. Microsoft has proven that even with unlimited funds you cannot create modern AAA studios, they have to grow organically. Legacy studios are literally priceless and they got rid of all of them.

>>723023445
Microsoft has terrible leadership and can’t do anything right.

>>723023384
All these nugamer scum act like how it is was always how it is
They weren't there in the early years, when shareholders were'nt a force like they are now. when people cpuod just make a game and people would just eventually find it, and have fun with it

>>723023234
it's amazing how Sony fumbled Dreams so hard
i would almost assumed there was a grudge against that game by upper management with how little marketing they did

Sexbox is kill Paystation will follow

>>723021547
>I know it bombed for capcom
Resident Evil is selling more now than ever before.

Bring back ps home kek

Then why make games that you know will sell like shit?

>>723023789
Execs are retarded simple as

Dreams was too complicated unlike little big planet where anybody could jump in and create easily.

Sony is basically experiencing what japanese devs did during PS3/360 era when they were doing third person shooters because le gears of war was successful

Pandering to americans

>>723020813 (OP)
They're just going to tell that japanese studios to make pozzed games. I remember reading that Sony told a chinese soulslike studio to make a game that appeals to black people

The fact that Sony (parent) hasn't done anything about the PlayStation division after they burned 4 billions on Bungie and have nothing of worth to show from it will never not confuse me

Do investors and board members not care about their own finances?

>>723023626
But these new people.....
They just don't care.....
They just want what streamers, and people that tell them, to want
They'd never explore the caralogs...
They'd never see what's there for them...
And games get pushed out at such a dramatic level, what they see is what they get....
There's no room for exploration
No room for, "holy fuck, peeps, check this new thing out!!!"
No
There's just too much saying "Me too!" "Look at meeee!" But all you did was just make clones
With ALL the tools and engines that are available, all you said was "me too..."
"Give me your money!!!"
The games that've lasted said so much more than you could ever say in your whole life
You only cared about the money, and not the games

>>723020813 (OP)

I hope Intergalactic flops so I can say that Team Asobi saved Sony.

>>723021025
Bloodborne II?
Call From Software and fund it

Gravity Rush 3?
Call Bokeh game studios and fund it

Some arthouse puzzle game like Ico or The Last Guardian?
Call Ueda studio and fund it

Ape Escape?
Leave it to Team Asobi

>>723025354
So just keep qutting and see how far that goes.....

>>723020813 (OP)
Super funny that these games budgets are inflated because they have to pay voice actors millions of dollars and royalties and spend a year motion capping them and treat them like really important parts of development when you could replace their voice with AI and motion cap literally a random mexican off the street.

>>723020813 (OP)
Too little, too late.

>>723025362
Yotei was a portent for Intergalactic. People are sick of girlbosses in all media.

GoY wont fail but there is a high chance Intergalactic will flop hard.

>>723020813 (OP)
>if Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet fails
>if it fails
>if

It's dead on arrival. They will spin the failure in a number of ways but ultimately it will cause Sony to move development away from the ultra-woke, jew-owned-and-operated, far-left studios of the US and back into Japan.

>>723020813 (OP)
Bloodborne II, thats all i ask for

>>723025829
When it fails will they blame sexist gamers or nebulous “market conditions”?

>>723023906

it all comes full circle

>>723020813 (OP)
Japan hasn't made any good AAA games in years. This won't save them.

>>723025105
Western gaming is also returning to its roots in indies and AAs, AAA is dying everywhere, there is nothing that can stop the fall.

It will, the AAA bubble has already popped, Microsoft is giving up on it, Sony's about to give up on it. AAA industry is hoping a $100 GTA 6 will save the industry and get people to spend $600 for a PS5 or Xbox while paying for online. It's over, and just before the PS6 and whatever the hell the next gen Xbox is. 10th gen will be the last PlayStation and Xbox.

>>723021025
Nope they will hire chinks/taiwaneese/koreans to pretend to be japanese and make crap like Silent Hill F. If it will be close enough then it will be a big success and sell millions of copies.

>>723025456
>Automation will make X cheaper!
>The wealth will trickle down!
You haven't been paying attention for the last few decades. TPTB have learned that if the proles were willing to pay higher prices before, they will continue to do so. Are you really so naive as to think they're keeping the prices lower out of the goodness of their hearts? You retard.

to be fair, this is the perfect time to restructure japanese video game companies, they've been having their own issues alongside western AAA releases

it's not a talent issue like it is in the west, japan has talented devs, it's just bad investment and localization issues

Is gaming healing, like for real?

>>723028335
*tap tap*

>>723020813 (OP)
I DONT want this because I don't want to have to get a Playstation. I want Sony to continue bleeding its existing IPs to other studios like Bamco so they can make multiplat titles that I can play on my PC. Less JP stuff on Playstation also means they'll be less likely to censor things (not that other platforms don't). Sony abandoning its Japanese heritage is good for me and I hope it continues so I can continue safely ignoring them like I do Xbox.

>>723021494
No. You just want to fuck her brains out, and that's ok

>>723028335
we'll see, im expecting china to be dominating the market which comes with it's own issues
how companies use AI to make video games going forward will also be a big wildcard

>>723020813 (OP)
Let me know when you pull up stakes in Santa Monica and fire everybody involved. Until then, i don't take you seriously.

>>723028916
We know (you) want to fuck underage girls anon, no need to project it

>>723028931
I don't really see that, when western and eastern AAA falls, that's basically the end of it. Sony's and Microsoft's increase focus on multiplatform will lead to most normalfags tapping out of gaming while what's left isn't going to bother with AAA games from other countries because it's just the same slop different country. Gaming is returning to the roots of indies and AAs. Gaming is moving away from its mainstream era as the global world is coming to an end for a more multipolar world.

Japan has stagnated.

Why not just fund Japanese studios too? Not like Japanese games always sell well and Sony already lost the Japanese market. Sounds risky to dump the western studios and put all their eggs in 1 basket again.

We must boycott the game while also demanding Sony to allow uncensored Japanese games. Either both can exist uncensored, or none can. Since 2018, Sony has been censoring Japanese games. Article about Sony's policies - https://archive.ph/37DhK
The two latest games censored were Tsukihime and Seifuku Kanojo 2. Seifuku Kanojo released censored in 2025.
Tsukihime article - https://archive.ph/6FoAQ
Seifuku Kanojo article - https://archive.ph/BPl5V
Every Japanese developer is forced by Sony to censor during development. It's not just Dony. Every console platform forces Japanese devs with their own censorship policies. Video games are occupied with censorship, so we must hit back.

Neil Druckmann the lead director and writer for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is a genocidal west bank settler. Drukmann's family are literal West Bank invaders. He was born in the West Bank. His family can vote for the government, the Palestinians cannot. Why did they move to the West Bank? To harass and push for the displacement of Palestinians. Any Jew who didn't explicitly state that Israel is an apartheid regime that needs to go is by default a Zionist, specially a guy from a settler family like Druckmann.

Druckmann was inspired to make the Last of Us 2's plot the way it is after he saw an Israeli settler get killed by two Palestinians and that's why the Israeli-coded faction are supposed to be sympathetic (even though they murdered Joel) and the Palestine-coded faction are irrational savages...
In reality, the Israeli "settlers" are absolute assholes who get assault rifles handed to them by the Israeli government, barge into people's houses and claim it for their own as squatter's rights.

>>723032006
Just get a fucking PC, desktop, laptop, or Steam Deck, wait for the Steam Deck 2 even, there is no point and getting third party shit for consoles when it's not even exclusive.

>>723021494
Had a hell of a lot more charm in any case. I wonder if it’s an ip they’d ever explore again, they were such soulful games but not sure if it did much numbers

>>723032127
The anti-Sony schizo you responded to focuses just on Sony, but Steam has their own anti-fiction policies. See pic attached.
It started around 2017 with Key to Home.
https://techraptor.net/gaming/news/updated-steamwatch-controversy-erupts-after-key-to-home-gets-removed-from-steam
Anti-ficton policies are held by every platform holder (Nintendo since 2022's Duel Princess, PlayStation since 2018, Xbox since the Xbox 360's Gal*Gun, Steam, Google, Apple). They all supersede objective age-ratings boards like PEGI, ESRB, and CERO to enforce their personal anti-fiction restrictions.
The payment processors' (VISA, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe) recent enforcment of their own anti-fiction policies only makes the fiction censorship situation worst. Japanese games are the most affected since the anti-fiction policies are made for Western anti-fiction activists.

What's the source for cuckmann being a west bank settler? If true his woke audience can turn against him and his game will flop. democrats would boycott intergalatic as funding a pro-genocide zionist!!! Is it true? i wouldn't want a genocider to win.
