just a daily reminder that Twitter is not the real world
I dont think ShiftUp is going to censor anything. Stellar Blade looks like a family friendly game compared to Nikke, they mobile game. Nikke is 100x more lewd and is just rated PEGI 12. And they previous mobile game Destiny Child was even more lewd. That one got slightly censored outside korea.Hopefully not censoring the titillation.
Yeah, they are definitely suspect AF in that department. Even down to how they grab objects with zero video gamey clipping or the like. And want you to focus they are not clipping or looking janky like most games (the recent zoom ins of the sword grabs while still in the scabbards in Phantom Blade Zero).Every one of these Asian slasher games are vaporware until proven otherwise. Every one.

They all come out of nowhere with an amazing looking trailer, suspicious levels of polish and the smoothest looking animation ever seen in a game... then disappear for years.
They probably don't even exist.
Bruh if they do that, they take away quite frankly the only interesting thing about the game.

I am talking more about Cali-bubble CULTure at Sony. I think they are righting that ship that Layden helped usher in several years back, since they have not been doing so as of late with a lot of those obscure anime games. The western devs just self censor themselves.I dont think ShiftUp is going to censor anything. Stellar Blade looks like a family friendly game compared to Nikke, they mobile game.

I think HD videos, longer tweets, and some other features.
Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but may I ask why?I didn't think it was bad at all?

Prove is wrong, Chinese and Korean devs.
I'm gonna add Silent Hill 2 remake to that list as well.
The trailer they showed last year had scenes from end-game areas. And there has not been a single peep, picture, news update from bloober and its absence in the showcase.
I'm starting to think the trailer we saw last year was just a target render.
There is probably only a handful of people on this forum that are either graduates in game development, actual developers or in some form programmers. The likelihood that you or really anyone else actually knows how the hell to make a video game, the resources required and the industry mentalities is slim at best. I've got a bachelor in game design, and I can tell you shit ain't easy to just flick on and off.First party is why we are all fans of playstation. No one gives a shit about third party exclusives like Godfall, deathloop, forspoken and ghostwire tokyo. People want to play next gen sony games. If Sony has $3.2 billion to invest in their playstation business and spends it on a third party developer to makes games for Xbox then they should just shut their console business and go third party like Sega. I dont pay $500 to fucking EA or Ubisoft, I pay Sony and I expect more than 1 first party game a year.
They clearly cant get them out in time which means they are lacking resources, manpower or talent. Take $1 billion out of that $3.2 billion and hire a few thousand devs from other publishers. Invest in colleges to ensure devs come out ready out of college. Baseball, NFL, and NBA do this.
There are way better ways to spend that cash than on a company that was always going to be making games on playstation.
Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but may I ask why?
For a PlayStation showcase, outside of Spider-Man 2, what did you see that would convince you to buy a PS5? Almost everything shown was not exclusive, and surprisingly devoid of gameplay.
Nothing is easy. Thats why they get paid the big bucks. Thats why its a multibillion dollar business. We pay $500 for a piece of hardware that comes with no games installed. Its a requirement just to be able to play their $70 games. They are obligated to take that investment from us and spend it on getting more first party games, exclusives, moneyhats whatever you want to call it especially when third party is dragging their heals chasing trends.There is probably only a handful of people on this forum that are either graduates in game development, actual developers or in some form programmers.

Also investing in colleges does fuck all for non-sport industries, as the talent is across a far wider range then "can you do ball game?"
DS, SM.MM, Ratchet, Returnal, GT7, HZ.FW, GOWR... That's 7 first-party games released in the 2.5 years since the PS5 launch. By the end of this year, that number would be 8 games in 3 years.Their audience is literally starved for first party games. They went out and spent $3.2 billion on a third party studio when they couldve invested that into their first party studios which are struggling to get teasers let alone gameplay demos out after 3-4 years of dev time. That money wouldve been better spent on giving ND, SSM, Sucker Punch, Insomniac and Bend enough resources to get games out faster.
Buying Bungie which was always going to release games on playstation for an insane amount of money is a moronic move.
Wow you really showed him. I bet he cries in his lambo right now....I single handily had like 7 tweets at his ass calling out his trash show and PR crap.
Good to see I’m not alone lmao. This is beautiful to see. Post more
I imagine that the butt would be a hugely contributing factor to my enjoyment of this game.butt jokes aside, that game actually looks amazing
Don’t forget the one that started it all, Lost Soul Aside announced in 2017 lolEvery one of these Asian slasher games are vaporware until proven otherwise. Every one.

Unless it's vaporware.Lost Souls Aside should have been at the showcase.
He, and nobody at Sony, said any of that, stop believing BS on the internet.The worrying part is that he really thought this shitshow was good. Well not only him but sony as a whole...
PHASE 2 , MAKE A STATEMENT, TOTAL MINDSHARE.....
They obviously have no clue what they doing over there.
I agree but I'm still not trusting Sony yet with the censorship. Its lessened to be sure, but I think devs are making alterations or prepping in advance for what is or is not likely to get some negative feedback by Sony. Granted its not much, but Alice Gear was ever so slightly altered for PS yet Switch was fine. Its the little details but I don't like shelling out cash for an inferior product. I wish they'd drop it completely. Not trying to be a downer just keeping my eyes peeled and buying where there is more freedom when applicable(PC/Switch).I am talking more about Cali-bubble CULTure at Sony. I think they are righting that ship that Layden helped usher in several years back, since they have not been doing so as of late with a lot of those obscure anime games. The western devs just self censor themselves.
His job is to make money for Sony and that’s exactly what is going to happen when the next Bungie game is another big success.P.S That tweet about them spending billions on Bungie only to make games for xbox is hilarious given how Hermans job is to make first party games for playstation.
PEOPLE REALLY NEED TO CALM THE FUCK DOWN...
Bluepoint,
Bluepoint - Shipped Demon Souls in November 2020. 2 years and 7 months later, nothing to show. They made and shipped DS in 2 years and 8 months after shipping SOTC in Feb 2018.
Bend - 4 years since Days Gone. Dev completed on 1 Logo.
Days Gone didn't flop, and Sony greenlighted in March 2021 (according to Jason Schreier) the open world new IP that Bend is working on, which is the first pitch from Bend that Sony received after Days Gone.Bend? Yeah, probably working as a support studio after Days Gone flopped, sorry.
Certain fanboys are the ones who have to get better at managing their expectations. Hermen didn't overhype this, a few fans overhyped themselves.He needs to hear it. At the very least he needs to get better at managing expectations and communication.
There isn't any related issue to fix at PS. And Phil didn't say "great games don't work" he did say that a handful great games wouldn't magically turn upside down the market share. Meaning, if Sony is outselling them 2:1, a couple games won't make MS outsell Sony 2:1.The good thing about so many people throwing a fit is that it'll fix the problem. We don't want a Phil "great games don't work" Spencer situation lol
After GoT shipped GoT Legends late 2020, and GoT DC/expansion/PS5 SKU in mid 2021.Sucker Punch - Shipped GoT in June 2020. Nearly 3 years later, nothing to show.
I’m one of them but I complained respectfullyAll those twitter handles are probably NeoGaf members
I appreciated their approach and they made it very clear visuals will be the last area they focus onThe FFXVI team got heavily dogpiled on for the visuals in the first trailer in 2020, which was all real-time and with gameplay captured from the actual game.
Nearly 3 years on for that and now everyone begging for trailers that show real gameplay from the development build reflective of the actual product, like that did.
We've come full circle and they've been vindicated.
Is Schreier even reliable when it comes to Sony Bend? Isn't his source there the director who left years agoBluepoint was announced to have worked in God of War Ragnarok, and all their devs they had then appear in the game credits.
Days Gone didn't flop, and Sony greenlighted in March 2021 (according to Jason Schreier) the open world new IP that Bend is working on, which is the first pitch from Bend that Sony received after Days Gone.
I loved what I saw from the first trailer. I think most gamers don't know what they want.The FFXVI team got heavily dogpiled on for the visuals in the first trailer in 2020, which was all real-time and with gameplay captured from the actual game.

There’s a screenshot of Hermen responding to that tweet in the OPHermen allow me to introduce you to this guy,

After it got re-revealed as Stellar Blade, a former ShiftUp employee came forward about sexual harassment allegedly happening at the studio. Naturally, ResetEra had a thread about it and certain members flipped their shit. They then tried to get a statement from ShiftUp about the allegations but got (thankfully) ignored.I am talking more about Cali-bubble CULTure at Sony.

No, the codirector who left, and the other one who got fired after shipping the game debunked some of things he said:Is Schreier even reliable when it comes to Sony Bend? Isn't his source there the director who left years ago
Is there a chance the 2021 date was just the end of preproduction and it's been in full production since? One thing that seems to be the case in development is that preproduction is a lot longer than you'd expect and full production can be a lot shorterNo, the codirector who left, and the other one who got fired after shipping the game debunked some of things he said:
But confirmed some other things:
- Bend fearing to be turned into a ND support studio (not the case, both studios have been supported each other when needed since decades ago)
- Bad relationship between Bend and ND heads
- Sony not being happy with ND or Days Gone (mentioned they were always very supportive)
- Sony not greenlighting Days Gone 2 (the director said that Bend's president was the one who blocked it and that Sony never received any Days Gone 2 pitch)
- Without mentioned indirectly confirmed they supported ND after Days Gone in a MP title as they always did between projects
- Indirectly confirmed that before leaving he started to work in another game that wasn't a new IP and wasn't Days Gone (so the Uncharted spinoff)
Man, people need to stop acting like PR employees.Man, people need to grow up.
Sony never said this, fake "insiders" said thisThe worrying part is that he really thought this shitshow was good. Well not only him but sony as a whole...
PHASE 2 , MAKE A STATEMENT, TOTAL MINDSHARE.....
They obviously have no clue what they doing over there.
I don't remember, but I assume it was to start production because they did stop working on the Uncharted game to move to this project. But being a new AAA IP the preproduction is way meatier than a sequel, with tons of research, concept art, prototypes, design of everything etc. So could be that they only had a small part of the preproduction (basic one plus the powerpoint pitch and some small prototype) with a small team and the greenlight maybe was to start putting there a ton of people to complete the bigger part of preproduction starting to prepare the production.Is there a chance the 2021 date was just the end of preproduction and it's been in full production since?
Objectively it wasn't bad at all(apart from few too many CGIs), people just imagined Bloodbornes and whatnot in their heads to be shown and started believing that, also so called "leakers" with their "trust me bro" sources add to it. Sony never claimed or promised anything.
Except the president & CEO said this is “what is next for Playstation 5” and “breathtaking and imaginative content” at the fucking start of the show.Sony never said this, fake "insiders" said this
The Muskurbators love wasting money.the only people paying for blue checks at this point are Elon fanboys
