>Bluepoint: "Miyazaki-sama, can we make a remake of Bloodborne?">Miyazaki: "No">*studio is shut down*should a man have that much power?
>>738594979the inscrutable miyazaki
>>738594979He doesn't give a shit about Demon's o lr any of the Namco games, it's literally only Bloodborne that matters.
>>738595107he got over 100 gaijins fired. was Bloodborne that important?
>>738595214Kek he's truly /ourguy/
>>738594979The concept of a remake studio is ridiculous in the first place. Imagine some third rate failed director scrounging for credibility and recognition by stealing other people's films and butchering them. Then imagine being sad when the hack loses his meaningless job.Make your own shit, remake your own games, the industry doesn't need more parasites
>>738594979He is a philosopher king, he knows what is good and what is not.
>>738594979Bluepoint was a garbage studio that fucked up every remaster they've ever done
>>738595214Yes.
>>738594979They got shut down because they tried to remake SotC a third time.
>>738595795demons souls was a 1:1 gameplay remaster that played identical to the original, looked a million times better and only autists and youtube video essay faggots that dont even play games complained about. people that literally didnt play the original are complaining about it without realizing the complaints are the original is dog shit and the new one just plays identical. oh no, they have blue banner and some facade on a building. thats literally another shoah. you people are fucking retarded.
>>738594979If only he had exercised that power sooner. Few studios deserved to be shut down more than Bluepoint. Their complete misunderstanding and disregard for the original visions of the games they remade was disgusting. If they wanted to impose their own visions and wants they should have had the balls to either join a different studio, or to create an independent studio and make their own shit.
>>738596248>remaster that played identical to the originalNot true at all. They added inertia to player movement to force roll game play, which the original game did not actually require.
>>738596248It was a soulless dogshit goyslop demake. Fuck you and fuck Shitpoint
>>738596248bet you also prefer this over the original
>>738596248>demons souls was a 1:1 gameplay remaster that played identical to the originalNo, it wasn't. You exposed yourself secondary son of a whore demake tourist.
>>738594979Should a studio be allowed to protect their own assets? Especially after bluepoint fumbled demon's souls?Yes.
>>738594979No one is entitled to make a derivative work of your game or anything else you have made. You don't need to provide a reason or even have a reason. If a game studio doesn't have original ideas the studio is worthless.
>>738596248Things I noticed were 9 way rolling (it was like 4 way before, very restrictive) and they gave Katanas their own movesets instead of sharing them with swords.
>>738597635>Should a studio be allowed to protect their own assets? Especially after bluepoint fumbled demon's souls?Demon's Souls and Bloodborne are Sony's assets. Miyazaki wasn't pleased with Sony choosing to remake Demon's Souls without his supervision, hence, him choosing Nintendo for Duskbloods.
>>738594979If Miyazaki give a shit about Bloodborne he'd fix it. He doesn't. You're a retard for thinking any one gives a fuck about it
>>738597532>No, No. it's not identical says the autist
>>738594979Why would they ask a movie director for permission to remake something
>>738594979Nobody should have the right to sell a remake of a game they don't own. After remaking Demon's Souls, they probably wanted to do another From Software action RPG, but they shouldn't think of that as a sure thing until they've actually gotten the legal rights to it.
>>738597936>If you correct me and expose me as a liar/clueless secondary, then you are an autist.
>>738596248I'd rather be an autist than an imbecil
>>738594979They deserved it for what they did to Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls
>>738596248you can like the remake brodie. Its the most widely available version. A lot of us just vastly prefer the original for very obvious reasons.
Yes. The creator, still alive and active in game development, of the original game, which is a single fucking generation old, should have the power to shut down pitches for bad remakes of his game.Eat shit, remakefag.
>>738597856There is nothing to fix. The game is perfect.>but muh FPS!Stable 30. Working as intended.
>>738599352nah bloodborne definitely needs a 60fps patch. Played it on ps4 religiously, some of the frame drops are inexcusable.
>>738594979>fuck japs, we know better how to make games>a few years later>Miyazaki-sama, can we make a remake of Bloodborne?Well deserved
>>738596248>looked a million times betterYou can't tell art apart from polygon count.
>>738599431it doesn't need a patch anymore because you can emulate it on the master race platform
>>738594979I think that it made them salty because a group of Austin hippies outdid them 10 to 1
>>738594979maybe don't set up your company where it relies on putting your grubby hands on other people's work and one denied remake will shut your doors.just a thought.
>>738599352>Stable 30.LMAO
The rumor going around was that they pitched another remake of Shadow of the Colossus to Sony and they shut it down. They were then developing a new live service game before Sony canned the whole studio. This comes from Austin Walker, the guy who initially published the details on the PS4 Pro before it was announced. He was on the Jeff Gerstmann Show recently and said it on there
>>738601297Wanting to remake a game you've already remade is impossibly stupid. Besides that, Sony seemed to switch from desperately wanting more multiplayer games to hating them at lightning speed. I know the PS4 Spider-Man devs were working on a multiplayer Spider-Man game, and they got put on Spider-Man 2 instead.
>>738599431If it was stable 30 I'd be fine with it, but it's more like 24fps a lot of the time. And significantly worse during certain boss fights. (Camerabeast paarl drops fps into the teens, average is 20 on that fight but it goes lower during his lightning attack
>>738594979I don't think he even has control over it considering Sony is making a Bloodborne movie produced and starring some youtube streamer, and Demon's Souls got a remake without From even knowing about it. I believe the other rumor more, that Bluepoint was just another PS Studios developer that was forced to waste resources on a GaaS title (that Bungie was in charge of overseeing) until it was time for Sony to offset the costs of their $4 billion lemonthon.
>>738594979bluepoint should not have been given the power to demake GOAT games
>>738598004The plan was probably to make Demon's Souls 2
>>738604223Maybe, but they're sort of in the habit of working on games that are already out. Either ports or a full remake. That's not a great place to be in, but you'd expect that "Bluepoint working on Demon's Souls" would be a remaster or remake, not a new one.
I don't blame Miyazaki for not approving that Bloodborne "modern audience remake" that replaces the original.Sony had a thing in 2010 against inhouse JRPGs and their budgets and pitches were rejected left and right, the Western side were giving Japan Studios a hard time. Demon Souls wasn't even approved for US release despite From Soft getting the licalization ready, and they didn't greenlight the sequel causing FS to look for other publishers. That same Western side uses that same game as a money printing remake to validate its expensive blunders that get a pass while Japan Studios is shut down, and yes Japan Studios were very involved creatively in crafting Bloodborne's universe and they even had an eulogy for one of their guys who passed away in 2019. Bloodborne and Desiree on the PS VR had cut content related to Demon Souls meant to flesh it out into a franchise yet it seems that was a casualty of the Western side's massive purge and downsizing that begun in 2015.So the american branch of Sony wants to use that swan song of Japan Studios to save the very studios that monopolized all budgets and truly ensured there would be no continuation, to create a version that would erase the original (by Sony precedent) and remove all of the original's world building painstakingly created by that same Japan Studios which Bluepoint sees as a legacy they can vampirize and corrupt to survive. They couldn't even get the architecture and environmental storytelling right in Demon Souls remake in 2020, called simply Demon Souls by Sony.
>>738595107>He doesn't give a shit about Demon'sHe saw what they did to demons souls.
>>738599938
>>738595710>The concept of a remake studio is ridiculous in the first place.Disney is literally doing that for a decade
>>738605386left: silverfox chadright: angry grandpa
>>738594979why didn't they just create their own games instead of trying to constantly remake other more creative studios works? also literally who thought they were sustainable when every single release they had was incredibly divisive to say the least with multiple YouTube compilations showing all the pointless changes they made to the games they remade that in many cases actively took away from the original design and made it worse
What's confusing is that I guess Sony can't even release a "touched-up" version. Not a remaster or a remake, but literally fixing game-breaking bugs, load times, and reworking everything to correctly run at 60 fps+. Either Sony doesn't have permission or they don't think a fix like this is "big enough" to be worthwhile. If Sony doesn't have "permission" (technically Sony doesn't need Miyazaki's permission) to do something this simple, it could mean that there are bigger things for BB in the future.
Who was he?
>>738605558They were a porting studio first, and were probably going to eventually (if allowed) make their own games after building up skills/confidence on enough remasters/remakes.
>>738605714I guess they should have tried to push for making their own game earlier instead of pissing on demons souls and then having the audacity to tell miyazaki he should let them remake bloodborne.
>base your entire company on remakes>get shut down the moment someone says nothe fact that journos were calling it a "beloved" studio when it happened is fucking absurd even if you liked the demons souls remake
>>738596248Another NPC who thinks games aren't art. Shitpoint raped Demon's Souls corpse and you clap cause of graphics. >>738597693Cool omnidirectional rolling that the enemy AI doesn't account for rendering it pointless and makes the game somehow even easier than it was before.
>>738596248kill yourself snoygger vermin.bluepoint is a disgrace upon the industry
>>738605386gotta wonder why they went with that ridiculous huge gem in the remake
>>738607064this is a horrible era for video games, where most of all that is left are remakes. bluepoint is like an emblem of the age--an entire studio dedicated to remaking good games of the past
>>738594979Yes, and if we're being honest this should have happened before they raped Demon's Souls, too.
>>738594979They should have asked to remake My Neighbor Totoro.
>>738605714This is such a wild fanfiction that people buy into for some reason. Every other game studio just makes games. They don't graduate from game porting school into the game making business, they just make their fucking games. They shouldn't have to "build confidence" by butchering other people's work, this is an absurd concept and it's even more absurd that retards buy it.
>>738595717>t. the guy that made DS2 and the original AC4
>>738605386legendary aura loss
>>738594979real reason is that they havent made shit in 6 yearsno studio can exist without a revenue sourceeven if they did grab a new project, unless a publisher agreed to cover all their costs for next couple of years they would go under anmywaythats why they were so desperate for a bigger project
>>738596248>1:1 gameplay remaster that played identical to the originalso it was a completely pointless release, and anyone who spent money on it is a huge retard? I agree. I played the original with superior art direction for free on an emulator btw
Personally I think someone at Sony just tossed that excuse at Bluepoint to make them shut up, knowing they were already on the chopping block. Imagine the audacity of being the studio to pitch the idea of a live service God of War game, being perpetually behind schedule, pissing away years of time and money with nothing to show for it, and then crawling back like, "please, boss, I can make it up to you with a remake of a game with no future while you're in crisis mode over even the live service that comes out bombing." Imagine how little value a developer has when it can't even manage to get something to send out to die.
>>738612308>gravity rush remasteredI didnt realize they did this one, its the only version ive played, how raped is it?
>>738612756Not too much, good outweights the bad kind of deal, same as Nathan Drake Collection. Definitely their best works. They were not flawless though, they do have elements that look worse than the original too, but the better performance and being on a home console make up for it, in my opinion.
>>738612756its a "remaster" not a remakejust higher res textures and rounder models, but the same game
>>738612756>>738613075example, most adavntage is from higher res, and bumped up texture resolution
>>738605386>grey fog obscures everything>lighting is shit>bizarre zesty cape removal>fuck up eye silhouette shape>fuck up obvious widow's peak and sharpened beard>fuck up when he slashes the air where his arm is perfectly straight with the sword to indicate his precision>fuck up dueling posture in the same wayI see why they were shitcanned, this is terrible
>>738594979In this case, yes.
>>738605386Literally soul/soulless. Also the PS3 graphics literally feels more detailed in the gameplay shot, even the lightning is better.
>>738611724He didn't make DS2, and AC4 is kino
>>738594979Pretty based>>738595214Even more based
>>738605386>that pan to him looking at fog
>>738595214If he'd personally killed them I'd still say he didnt go far enough.
>>738611495Not really. Mass Effect Andromeda for example was made by a team that previously only had experience making dlcs, and the plan clearly was if they were successful at proving themselves, they would have likely been made into a studio to take off some of the burden from Bioware's main studios.
>>738594979thf
>>738605946Well according to the story, they had pitched several things to Sony but kept getting refused.
>>738605525Capeshit can't die soon enough
>>738605386masculine vs performative male. fucking terrible
A remake is coming, I guarantee it. But it WILL be a Western tranny studio that will rob the game of any /soul/ and make sure characters get race-swapped.
>>738596248The only thing i will give Demons Souls Remake flag for is that we didnt get an Demons Souls Remaster first.Nu Demons Souls doesnt feel like any of the Fromsoft Souls games.It feels and looks ironicly more like Lords of the Fallen 2023.
>>738605386
>>738594979If Sony didn’t shutter Japan Studio he might’ve said yes. FAFO.
>>738605386>>738616818>well you see in the intro it says theres a colorless fog so we decided to completely cover everything in fog
>>738616348Imagine pitching a modestly budgeted, likely profitable project to Sony management in the last 3 years. No thanks, fag, gimme that black-tar heroin live service.
>>738594979After what they did to Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls? Absolutely.
>>738616818It's kind of crazy how basic cinematography concepts are completely beyond the modern developer
Their Demon's Souls Remake was garbage so Miyazaki was right to tell them fuck off
