>>730590283Nah, it's just the long dev time for modern games. 1. Druckman's past games didn't have technical issues, which plagues modern game teams. 2. Sony uses their custom engine and they know how to use it. 3. The other lag is lack of organization and design, but Druckman commands all that. he runs a tight ship. The issues with Last of US 2 are mostly writing and focus, which is super faggy. It's a purely competent and technically impressive game at teh very least. Like they use the POWAH of the PS5 and endless engineering to show us two hyper realistic ugly women where one takes off her shirt. It's all very much "why?".
>>730590283Death to Sony.
>>730590624Nah, this is Arkane's last shot unless they manage to convince investors to make Dishonored 3. It's coming out one way or another
>>7305902836 or 7 years is a normal development time for AAA now. This game will be the straw that breaks the camel's back for Sony in the US. The shutting down of Japanese and British studios happened under Jim Ryan. Under Nishino they are not going to tolerate another big flop when it costs over $250 million to make. The whole justification for giving America endless money was based on Uncharted, Last of Us and God of War luring in the dumbest western consumers and impressive graphics being everything to execs who don't play games (Jim) and now the tide is turning
>>730593564It's all about scale though. That model worked in the PS4 when the demographics were still growing, and when the dev time and money were still huge but manageable. But the kids have stopped playing mainstream AAA games entirely in favor of Roblox or the gimmick game of the month. And game budgets just kept going up and up and up. Last of Us 2 actually sold decently, which while disappointing, should have made it a huge success, but the budget was just astronomical. This entire model is dying and should die off entirely in this generation.
>>730593564>>730593768Oh and games take WAY too long to make now, which means you can't get any kidn of investment in any kind of a series. I remember the 16, 32 bit and PS2 gen, and you could get 1-5 god damn games a generation. You could get an investment into a setting and storyline. Imagine if someone was invested into Last of Us universe. First game 2013 on PS4, second game in 2020 on the PS5! Seven fucking years. This is another reason kids are not latching onto new games: they take too long to come out and it's literally half or more of their lifetime. You played a game at 7, great play the next one when you're an adult with a mortgage. Budgets massively need to come down to something more reasonable, like 50 million and they need to scale back graphical detail since clearly most people don't give a shit. Games don't even look remotely photo-realistic but still like CGI films, just very detailed ones with better lighting.
>>730593768It will under perform because Neil in his hubris thought he could get away with an ugly protagonist and female lead cast. Sony got their fingers burnt with live service and changed how they handled it, if Naughty Dog deliver a game that is technically well made but not selling enough when it has a huge budget there will be a big shift. Ghost of Yotei cost under $100 million to develop so there was more leeway.
>>730593361Wtf Arkane still exists? I thought they all got shitcanned after the gay nigger vampire dogshit game.
>>730594034Are we seriously talking 250 million?! where would the money even come from to make that budget back? /v/ is the only place abuzz with discussion of teh game and it's mostly to mock baldie. I can only see this kind of game making sense if it's the intro to a multiplayer game or something. In fact, why wouldn't this and Concord just be merged into a single project?
>>730594097That was their second team. The main team has been working on a Blade game for a while. I think it's good that the Blade movie got canned, it probably wouldn't have been very good and would've done the game a disservice.
>>730590283Fire Neil Cuckmann and all the woke faggots from the studio sony. Unless you want the ship to sink
>>730594202I think they'll spend that much because they spent $220 million on Last of Us 2, there's been inflation since then, they employ over 200 developers in the US who are on the highest wages and games that have high end cut scenes tend to cost a lot. It will be single player, Naughty Dog cancelled Last of Us Factions multiplayer because it would get in the way of developing single player games.
>>730590283More like Intracranialic: the Frontal Lobelet
>>730591161This game has more dislikes on its teaser than likes. Right out of the gate it's already getting negative publicity and no hype. It won't do well.
