Sega being a confederation of several fiefdoms at the time, imagine Sony being part of that

Dewgy posted:That reminds me, how’s Abandoned doing these days? From the Wikipedia page on the game: quote:On June 3, 2022, GameSpot published an investigative report which accused Kahraman of "toxic" activities on a private chat room revolving around the game, in which he revealed scant development information but attempted a romantic advance on one of his artists, who later left the group, allowed a 12-year-old to insult other members with no consequences, and forced others to play Rainbow Six Siege with him. Leaked development assets also had a Silent Hill 5 logo on them, indicating that he sought to trick people into believing Abandoned was part of the Silent Hill series. Others close to Kahraman claimed that little to nothing of the game exists, with the game shifting genres numerous times, and that even the playable prologue was unlikely to be finished, making it largely a hoax.

Mario beat Sonic because Mario games started out for kids and then evolved into games that you could play with your kids, while Sonic games started out for kids and then evolved into games for adults who are mentally still kids

Once again I don't know why they couldn't do both, leave the 3D as BOTW style open world games while leave the 2D games as the older school zeldas

We had twenty years of games like OoT. At this rate we'll have 4 BotW clones, then they'll move onto something else.

I wonder how that game Unrecord https://store.steampowered.com/app/2381520/Unrecord/ is coming along in development. I expect this to be the next the Day Before.

Tactical shooter seen through a cop's body cam seems like it has its own set of problems and reasons to not release.

Yeah it couldn't possibly be that BotW and TotK were so wildly divergent from what a Zelda game is that they might as well have been their own entirely unique series of games that just so happened to have the Zelda IP stretched over their mechanics, and that people might actually prefer an actual Zelda game with unique dungeons that unlock unique, persistent items and abilities, as opposed to a game about an empty open world, centered around a single gimmick, with like 8 different enemy types in the entire 200+ hour game. What a narcissistic rear end in a top hat. GreatGreen fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Dec 11, 2023 |

BOTW and TOTK are the best selling and second best selling Zelda games of all time. They’re gonna make the games that the majority wants

they'll probably only return to the old formula if they believe that the new formula is starting to run into diminishing returns, in much the same way that BotW was conceptualized out of skyward sword having a feeling of a series that was mostly spinning its wheels by that point sometimes you just get big paradigm shifts in long-running game franchises, like how there's never going to be another linear castlevania ever again because SotN's popularity so thoroughly eclipsed anything that came before and proved to be almost endlessly replicable if you tweaked it enough
