If this flops like Bayonetta 3 and Ninja Gaiden 4, will the Last Ronin kill PlatinumGames?Why do PlatinumGames' non-Nier titles always flop?
>>740366657They already had a shot at TMNT a decade ago and absolutely blew it, why are they allowed to do it again?
>>740366657I thought every good dev from P* already jumped ship, how they are still operational?
That's probably another budget licensed title like that other TMNT game, The Korra game or the Transformers game. If it sells 3 and a half copies it will break even.
Konami will try to get them back on a Rising game eventually>>740367035ng4 was very much still good and did enough even if it wasn't a giant success
>>740367861NG4 is garbage and not NG at all.
>>740366657Free IP, small studio, short dev time, shoestring budget, 5 hr long game They'll make their $10,000 back
>>740366657Bayonetta 3 didn't flopBayonetta origins flopped
>>740366657>tmntwhat the fuck were they thinkingI'd welcome the only good tmnt game since turtles in time, though
>grimdark TMNTsounds lame to be honest
>platinumgamesYeeeesssss. That means it’ll be more of a character action game than a bamham clone. Fuck yeeeessss.
>>740366657No, they're getting payed to make it either way, the funding isn't coming out of their bank account.
It's obviously going to flop.
Oh wait, it’s gonna be low budget? Never mind then. I don’t want it. I’ve played fair share of low budget tmnt games, and they just aren’t worth it.
What is happening? We got a VR TMNT game like a month ago. I was huge fan of the original cartoon and I have the NES games in my collection.
>>740366657Is this based on the previously announced Last Ronin game or did they just can that entirely and restart from scratch?
>>740368710in the early 2010s, that studio used to do low budget games to fund their bigger games, maybe they are back at doing thatMost were very mediocre but a few were decent
>>740366657I'm still mad that they aren't doing that Sentai game idea they had anymore
>>740369323I think that's because the person who pushed it abandoned it and left the studio
>>740368901https://www.gamefile.news/p/paramount-games-studio-tmnt-last-ronin>TMNT: The Last Ronin, as noted above, will be developed by Platinum, a studio with a great pedigree in action games (Bayonetta, Nier Automata, Ninja Gaiden 4) though with some considerable staff turnover of late. Overseeing this one, Kittelsen said, is former Tekken producer Yohei Shimbori who will be joined by Platinum veterans. Last Ronin was originally a comic book mini-series about a lone surviving Ninja Turtle on a revenge quest.>This is a different project than the TMNT: The Last Ronin game revealed in 2023 with Black Forest Games and THQ Nordic. That one is defunct, Kittelsen said.>This is Platinum’s second game in the series, following 2016’s Activision-published Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan. That game “did not get the kind of support that I think that the Turtles deserve or that Platinum deserves,” Kittelsen said. “So this was also a chance to do justice by Platinum’s TMNT fans and say, ‘Hey, let’s see what they can really do when we get some of the resources.”>Kittelsen on Platinum’s pitch for the game: “On the face of it, the pairing of Platinum and The Last Ronin made a lot of sense just from a genre fit standpoint. But when we had the first conversation, the first pitch, it was about so much more than what I expected. I expected [them] to go deep into the action and the quality of combat dynamics. And instead we spent a lot more time talking about themes and character and the growth of the turtles and how we all were raised with this much simpler version of the Ninja Turtles in our mind… and now we live in a more complicated time, and we can’t have all the nice things we have when we were kids. There’s a twist on it, but we still want to build a better world for the next generation.”
>>740366657I can sympathize somewhat for someone who’s old enough to be nostalgic for TMNT, but why now? Who is this for? Gen X dads? Japanese westaboos? What the hell are we doing here?
Gee I wonder if Platinum will do another NG4 and this game won't have any ninja turtles in it until 10 hours in when you get to play as only one of them for 40 minutes before changing back to whatever OC they want you to play more of. God I wish nothing but misery upon Platinum for what they did to my favourite action game series.
>>740370287>we really fucked up last time and we lost everyone that mattered but please please please buy this one guys please it will be good please i beg youGrim
>>740370359And it's gonna be the same shit as their previous games, but now it's X!Can't wait for them to rape TMNT, again
>>740370478Despite what NG4 faggot autists say NG4 was a legitimately great action game and I was surprised that Platinum could still deliver games this good after all the staff that left
Ninja Gaiden 4 didn't deserve to flop, but they also kinda brought into themselves, trying to phase out Ryu and making it less Ninja Gaiden than it should have been
>>740368503exactly, I don't understand why some anons here hate on platinum. Actually, I don't understand why people in general don't seem hyped about this.NG4 was the best surprise we could have had last year and I barely hear anything about the game.People don't play actual games anymore.
>>740367958Filtered shitter.
>>740371372I've never seen a new developer have such malcontent for a legacy franchise. Like those Platinum developers did NOT want to work on Ninja Gaiden, but Xbox made them put the name on there. They totally built Ryu's gameplay and his small segment in like the last month of development.
>>740367861Ng4 is fine. Anything more is overstating it
>>740371515anyone with a brain that likes action game is gonna be hyped for this, i wish only death and misery to all ng fags hating on 4 when it's the only actual action game released since dmc4
>>740366831Because The Last Ronin was shopped around to a few game studios who didn't want it. I remember they wanted Rocksteady for awhile.
>>740366657Ninja Gaiden 4 is one of the best games I have ever played in my life. The engine that Platinum Games made for that game is the best engine ever made for action games, literally no input delay and exceptionally well optimized, I played Ninja Gaiden 4 at 1440p 180FPS perma-locked with perfect framepacing at ultra graphical settings. No other action gaming experience comes even close to this. IF The Last Ronin is using the same engine as that of Ninja Gaiden 4, I will pre-order the most expensive version on Steam right away.
>>740366657Why is every fucking new TMMT thing The Last Ronin related?
>>740372149Because The Last Ronin is the only thing that makes money off the TMNT brand these days. Mutant Mayhem flopped and they can't ride off nostalgia from the 87 show forever.
>oh cool new P* game>it's legacy IP shovelwarelmao, P* are done
Game is gonna be a fun action heavy game and sell like shit
>>740372149Tribute Games did Shredder's Revenge which was fine.
>>740366657Bayo 3 did a cool million, not a flop by any means. Origins flopped but that's because it was both overpriced and barely advertised despite being an actually good game.
I thought Ninja Gaiden 4 sucked. I just hope this isn't God of War 2018 inspired like the original version before it got cancelled. I also hope Platinum uses more colors than blue and grey.
>>740370359Watch the last ronin be the OC they try to force on us. No one knew Mikey was the last ronin until the very end, so the last ronin in this one will be a mysterious fifth turtle to subvert our expectations.
>>740372209>they can't ride off nostalgia from the 87 show forever.I mean, they can. They just refuse to commit to it. 87 has been funding the franchise through merch and licensing deals but there hasn't been any new major production involving 87. Even the Tribute Games game was a low budget affair that only came out as good as it did because TG put their entire weight behind it. All the major stuff has just been spin offs or reboots.
>>7403718754 wasn't for NG fags so of course they didn't like it.
>>740372449I hope Platinum uses more mechanics than witch time and dodge offset
>>740372149the only well known story
>>740372857lol
>>740371278>>740372105>Saar saar please do the needful and buy Nigger Gaydung 4KYS shills, your game flopped and died
>>740374684Genuinely why are you NG autists actually the worst motherfuckers in character action sphere of audiences?I don't think I've been in single thread where you fags aren't the most insufferable annoying fags in the room
>>740366657REMINDER, the last tmnt game they worked on was DOGSHIT
>>740375225They've been having an inferiority complex since the days of Ninja Gaiden Black vs Devil May Cry 3
>>740370287>will be developed by Platinum, a studio with a great pedigree in action games (Bayonetta, Nier Automata, Ninja Gaiden 4) though with some considerable staff turnover of late.damn, even the official PR release acknowledges how a lot of long term Platinum devs are gone
>>740375912Ninja Gaiden 4 is their best game. Modern Platinum Games is better than Old Platinum Games.
>>740376830I wouldnt say their best but NG4 is good
>>740371515I just don't really care about the ninja turtles. Hope the game is at least as good as transformers.
I am cautiously hopeful but they really should have lead with SOME sort of gameplay footage, even preliminary stuff, as it stands it seems a lot of people are confusing this with the OTHER Last Ronin game from years ago because neither games showed any footage
>>740377291Last ronin isn’t very ninja turtles considering 3 of them are dead and the last one is depressed
>>740372149The actual reason is so it can be single player with one character instead of 4 players. For some reason making co-op games is impossible for game devs these days.
what if master splinter...........was mistress splinter...........sexo...........
>>740377993Stop masturbating
>>740377993boringI think I will play that roguelike game tho where he is captured.
>>740378025no..............sexo .. ........
Read the ComicIt’s really good
Ideally this game would have been made by Rocksteady when they were at their post-Arkham City peak.
