Yeah, this outlook is pretty messed up. Truly gives you an insight into how creatively bankrupt the AAA artistry and originality has become. You can imagine its a similar deal in other AAA studios.So much for the artistic/creative side of game development when business decisions settle what all these people will be doing a full decade ahead...

Thats what happens when big business is involved. And for things like gaming and movies where there's giant budgets and it takes years to make something, it's all about focusing on the tried and true stuff. Risky products will be side projects.Yeah, this outlook is pretty messed up. Truly gives you an insight into how creatively bankrupt the AAA artistry and originality has become.

R&C didn't lose money. It had already made $64 million in profit by February 2022 -- which would be much higher now.Not sure which is more depressing.
R&C losing money or having to wait practically a full decade for a new IP from Insomniac.
To be fair, Marvel games sell a ton of copies. The rest of Insomniac's gaming library doesn't. Thats why they got bought out by Sony a year after Spiderman 1 and immediately got pigeonholed as a superhero studio for at least a decade.Imagine wasting this much talent on Marvel. Oh wait it's actually super woke Marvel. They get what they deserve I guess.
IDK, some of those "meh" were pretty excited about Blade by a company that put out a total turd earlier this year. I wonder why that is?It's funny that when Insomniac's entire game roster for the next 8 years is leaked, it doesn't generate any excitement but only elicits "meh"s from everyone. It's clear that we would rather see a new IP in 2025/2026 than many more years of superhero games and another R&C game.
When the hell is Hellblade 2 coming out? It’s been “coming out soon” for what seems like two yearsInsomniac is targeting Hellblade 2 for a visuals standard

Yeah cuz they're nervous and have the weight of the XBOX on their shoulders. They don't want to release something even slightly below "awesome". A lot is riding on Hellblade 2.2024. No month or window.

Man fuck Rachet give us resistance
Lmao same! So much fun esp them big ass battlesFuck yeah, I want to be one of the baddest Medics to grace the game (Resistance 2) once again! I would heal my team, keep them alive! And my kill count was comparative to top DPS.
I always got props from my teammates. LOL!
I miss this game.... ever day in the morning before work. GG.
I think there are 2 points here:And for things like gaming and movies where there's giant budgets and it takes years to make something, it's all about focusing on the tried and true stuff. Risky products will be side projects.
Excited for NEW IP when I'm almost 50
Just noted the Resistance 4 detail. That's a huge disappointment. Holding out hope that Insomniac will reconsider and revise that decision some time.Looks like there was a Resistance 4 on the table at one point, but it got canceled before being announced publicly.
Imagine being Ted Price running the company, he’s 55 now, he’ll make Marvel games until he retire.Excited for NEW IP when I'm almost 50
