>>742082650
>>742082650Rockstar Games
bioware, bungie, obsidian
>>742082650Most of them on the AAA side.
>yeah but X is still there!Why do people think someone cannot change as much as society has? Then again these people will look at a game from 2002 and say it's the same as a game from 2022 where the protagonist is a queer brown woman and there's no failstate.
>>742082650What studio doesn’t this apply to? Even when Walt Disney (to you underage mongoloids he was a real person) was alive in the 70s almost all the staff he used to work with moved on or died.

Bungie>erm…actually bungie still has 40 ex halo employeesNah, not spiritually the same people
>>742082650The Outer Worlds
>>742082851>Walt disney era>old partners quit or die>hire competent people and nurture them into getting at least as good as the old partners>modern era>old partners get cancelled by twitter outrage>hire fresh college kids with social science majors, minorities to fill dei quotas or outsource the work to india
Name a game made by original ex-developers that was good.>none of the original developers are still at the studioYeah, because they sucked.
Rareware.Still completely unbelievable to me that Nintendo was just willing to let them go despite them providing like half of the N64s fucking library not to mention how many millions of copies the DKC games sold. Genuinely one of the biggest mistakes and losses in the entire history of the medium.
>>742083232Rollercoaster Tycoon 2
>>742082650Bioware.
>WHY ISN'T THE BOOMER STILL WORKING ON MY CHILDREN'S TOY?>SURELY IF ONLY JOHN BLOWMONEY WAS STILL ON THE PAYROLL, THE GAME WOULD BE EPIC AND WON'T FLOPMeanwhile what original ex-devs make.
>original Blizzard/WoW devs
>>742082650wheeze
Surprised that no one has said Sonic Team yet
>>742083894>mini-MMO
>>742084261When has Sonic team put out anything good ever? Only honest to god quality sonic game is sonic 3&k.
>veterans from Respawn, Epic, Riot, Bungie and more!

>>742082650blizzard
>>742084404no sorry only /a/ bans twitter screencaps for some reason
>>742083232Last Odyssey, Mistwalker was the legit continuation of Squeenix and LO was the last good Final Fantasy made.
>>742082650Toys For BobStar Control was decades agoCurrent Toys For Bob makes shit like Skylanders.
>>742082650every studio
>>742082816every thief should be subjected to CIA torture with the amount of hours the torture lastscorresponding to how many dollars the game costs on the second hand market.
>>742082650Obsidian
>>742084727Worse they kill entire franchises.
>>742082650bungie
>>742082650>COMES A SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR MADE BY 3 GUYS WHO DID BACKGROUND ART AND THE MUSIC GUY

>>742082816Duplicating ≠stealing
>>742083239Rare forced it. The Stampers wanted to cash out and have Nintendo buy their 51% share of the company to make them 100% Nintendo owned. Nintendo didn't want to buy a western studio that had its own dev culture they would now have to manage, so they turned it down. The Stampers sold their stake to Microsoft and Nintendo sold the rest now that they were only part owners of what was now a competitor's studio.
>>742082650Rockstar and GTA6.
>>742082650>what studio?Bioware would be the most extreme example. They lost half their best talent between ME1 and ME3 and the other half afterwards.
>>742082816How do i buy and support the devs of a 35 year old nes game that hasn't been available on the market for 34 years? Go on retard, make us laugh
>>742082650For me it's>FROM THE LITERAL ACTUAL DEVELOPERS WHO MADE LEGENDARY GAMES 20 YEARS AGO... THE BIGGEST TURD YOU'VE EVER SEEN!
Pretty much any studio owned by Playstation
>>742085243I still can't believe their "spiritual successor" fucked up literally every aspect of Banjo Kazooie. It's almost impressive how they didn't get a single thing right.
>>742082816>fine or sent to jail for theftit isn't theft>emulation is illegalit isn't>I pay for my games. so should youthat has nothing to do with emulation
>>742083239you might not like this anon, but Rare was already starting to throw stinkers way before the whole buyout thing, and in my honest opinion Conker was the canary in the coalmine, yeah everyone loves conker and its story, adult themes and humor, but if you take off all of that, there is just a very mediocre game left, like im not even joking or being an ironic asshole when i say that conker gameplay is the prime example of the clunkiness meme, and after that what we got? dinosaur planet apparently was good but putting a star fox skin on it ruined it according to many people, grabbed by the ghoulies? the conker remake? look how they botched it after they left nintendo.Rare was dying and nintendo knew, many people claim that nintendo not buying rare killed their run for the gamecube, but honestly i believe they just dodged one of many bullets in that botched generation.
>>742083894>a mini-MMO Action RPG with PvE, PvPvE and Arena Modes, vast outdoor zones, craft powerful gear & epic Battleborn heroes!
>>742082650Bioware
>>742082650Bungie and Halo. Most of the recent waves of concordlikes(including concord itself) were sold to investors on "we have ex halo devs" - meaning they have people who maybe walked past the same room where the the OG halo devs drank coffee once.
>>742085243Sounds like the same guys that did Back 4 Blood where it was HOLY SHIT IT'S THE L4D DEVS and it turned out to be like 3-4 out of 200 and they were just concept artists or some shit.
>>742082759ah yes, highguard, my favorite studio
>>742082650Turtle Rock Studios>"From the creators of L4D">literally 7 people out of 200
>>742086802and thats without mentioning how valve pretty much put a lot of their own hand on creating the game.
>>742082650Shit like this is why I couldn't care less about all the recent layoffs. Development times are so long and attrition is so high in the gaming industry that deep down I know 99% of the people getting laid off didn't do a single fucking thing on the games I actually enjoyed playing.
FROM THE CREATOR OF 20 YEAR OLD RPG AND DESIGNER OF 25 YEAR OLD MMOCOME THEIR NEW STUDIO: "Soulless Ventures"AND THEIR FIRST NEW GAME: Echos Of Elysium: Reckoning Rising OUT IN EARLY ACCESS THIS YEAR
>>742087235You forgot>PRE-ORDER NOW
>>742082650Bioware and Obsidian
>>742082650Bioware and Oblivion
>>742082650Bioware and Obama
>>742083232FO: New Vegas
>>742082816I wholly encourage other people to buy the games I like
>>742087223I care about layoffs only because that logically means execs and shareholders, the robber barons that they are, get a bigger cut of money to pay for their epstein island ventures. Incompetent people losing their job needs to happen but not at the expense of millionares getting more money.
>>742085842Simple, I bought them 35 years agoBut they're in boxes and inconvenient to dig out of the storage room, when I can just load up a Wii with every retro game I own
>>742083232Baldur's Gate 2
>>742082650Blizzard Bungie
>>742084404It makes me think back to how just a few years ago I was banned from /v/ almost every week...Sometimes the jannies were saucey enough to global ban me.4chong is dead.
>>742087560Cool. How is a person 30 years from now going to play nes games made 65 years ago that haven't been sold for 64 years :)
>>742087235>Raises 10x the minimum goal in early access>Somehow spends years in development hell anyway>Eggs on the audience with concept art and ever increasing promises>Game finally releases>It's shit Time and time again I'm reminded of why creatives need producers to tard wrangle them
>>742082650quicker to list the 20 year old studios that aren't like that
>>742087684I get banned or rangebanned for insulting the staff many times a year. Its a badge of honor.
>>742082816anti-pirates better pay for all porn or you're a hypocrite
>>742082816This industry is ass.
>>742087684>>742088089it feels a little better since last year's hack, i guess a lot of the tranny staff got scared their emails leaked?
>>742083232Fallout and Planescape: Torment
>>742082650This one makes me sad.
>>742083702Stormgate would have done way better if they didn't have awful AI art. The moment that travesty of a cinematic they made came out it was over.
>>742082650Every single AAA North American and European studio.
Three Fields EntertainmentFor the love of God can someone give Burnout (ANY entry) the BallisticNG treatment already. It can't be that hard right. Any of the Burnout games is so goddamn simple. Burnout doesn't deserve to die in a ditch like this
>>742089748Burnout is one of those games that looks braindead simple until you actually try to copy it and realize 90% of it is invisible tuning. The crash physics, traffic placement, rubberbanding, boost economy, track width, camera shake, takedown angles, all that shit has to be perfect or it just feels like some Unity asset racer with cars exploding.Three Fields proved that "we have the old devs" doesn't mean anything if the budget and QA aren't there. Burnout 3/Revenge were lightning in a bottle and EA is sitting on the corpse because it can't be turned into a live service slop trough.
>>742084404Man, remember when "mfw" was an auto-ban? How times have changed.
>>742088232>betterNah the staff is still as bad, worse now since the furfag proxies that pop up. Declining PPH and the site is also still rife with banal shitposting.
>>742082650Rare.

FROM THE GUYS WHO WERE IN THE ROOM WHILE VALVE MADE LEFT 4 DEAD
>>742089915Even Paradise is one of a kind, especially in light of how modern racing games (and even Criterion themselves) always fuck up when copying its style of open world. Paradise hasn't used the open world to its fullest potential yet, and in a different world where we got Burnout 6, maybe they'd develop and polish the formula even more, like what they did to Burnout 2 with 3. But nooooooo, NFS just had to take priority and they fucked it all up and now BOTH franchises are dead in the water and fuck me I'm just so goddamn fucking MAD I just want to race goddamnit
You know something is going to be shit when they pull out some popular devs name who worked on a hit from 30 years ago. Specifically the Diablo or WoW team. They always get namedropped in some new game and it always ends up shit.
>TMNT Last Ronin reveal>From the Studio that brought you Bayonetta & Nier Automata>Every single director of the Bayonetta series (even the Origins director) has left Platinum>Automata was a joint project with SE and the Platinum-side director left to make his own studio>Platinum has had as many talent exoduses as Capcom in significantly less time and the only relevant name from Day 1 still there has transitioned entirely to doing corporate work
>>742082816life aint fair
>>742082816When was the last time that you purchased a game's source code?Because that is the only definition that "pay for a game" fits.Otherwise, you're just buying a license to intellectual property.
>>742090656Plus wasn't this like the second time Platinum made a TMNT game?
>>742084592this was instantly suspicious since it was well-known that colors and generations were made at the same time by different teams.kind of weird they would start the trailer for a new game with a blatant lie.
>>742082650>green arrows outside of 4channel
>>742088267This one game embodies so many incredibly stupid decisions that it's impressive. You have to wonder if it was pitched as a joke.
>>742082650BungieNintendoBut the reality is every studio. The turnover rate is high in video game studios. The smart ones can leave for greener pastures at a moment's notice. Why would anyone take a 33% paycut to work in an industry that has crunch times. My buddy worked for iron galaxy studios. Now he works for raytheon. His starting salary almost doubled over night. He doesn't have 100 hour work weeks anymore and he can take vacations. Only a fool would stay a video game developer, especially after realizing that auteurs can't be made anymore and people stopped caring about individual talent on a team.
>>742082816Some women have to have miscarriages.Women should have a tattoo on the back of their hand if they've had a miscarriage.It should be legal to kick a pregnant woman in the stomach if she does not have that tattoo to make her miscarry.It's only fair.
>>742082986>people who commit real crimes and hurt people aren't sent to jailonly if they're brown
>>742082954>BethesdaNo, they have the opposite problem where they don't fire anyone even when they really should
>>742082816>Hurts the industryOk, where's the downside of pirating games then?
>FROM THE MAKERS OF LEFT 4 DEAD>literally 3 subcontractors who did some testing
>>742082650Frost Giant comes to mind. The whole stormgate thing...
>>742082650bungiearkanerockstar
>>742083064It's really not bad
>>742092425Worse, it's boring. Back when Obsidian made broken and incredibly flawed games at least they were interesting.
>>742086051KekWhat the fuck were they thinking
>>742087940Sounds like star citizen
>>742090656>TMNT Last RoninThey are adapting the comic into a game?
>>742085456>it's okay to pirate something that nobody is offering anymore and will likely never offer again because you cannot get it otherwise>"wtf thats so autistic"Why?
>>742092561This.I don't know how they managed it, but it was like it was condensed boredom. It had problems, but nothing that should have been a dealbreaker for my shit-eating tastes. Made it about 2 hours and just couldn't find enough interest to keep going.
