At least they got all those awards from journos and industry insiders

I don't buy games because of the awards it gets

It’s a perfectly fine game, until you see the budget.

doesn't look like it was too popular with gamers.
why so many awards?

If they are so talented why not make their own game?
They could start small indie stuff and such.

Double Fine is the one I know will shut down. Studio is in California. They can't make commercially viable games, always goes over budget and miss deadlines. Their Kickstarer games were mismanaged. No one under 50 cares about Tim Shafer and that studio. They are fucked.

Where's the modern audience that's supposed to be buying these games?!?!
>>
>>743416526
They might be in California but they're also only 42 people. If they ship Psychonauts 3 and it does as well as Psychonauts 2, they're probably fine.
>>
do you think they would make my eroge gacha full of sexy, big-breasted women?
>>
I got baited into buying We Happy Few. It's an absolute abomination with nonsense mechanics like hunger and thirst which do not fit the game at all and only acts as a nuisance
>>
>>743414181
Just shouldn't have replaced their white Mc with that black ratchet hood skank looking character

They´re going to shut down within the year.

They hired more post Xbox acquisition. 105 people is a lot if they plan on doing small projects.
>>
>>743419595
I mean, they got paid six figures barely doing any work for 7 or so years. Some didn't even release games. It's a huge grift that western devs do.

Nintendo should give them a low risk low budget pity project. Maybe fzero
>>
>>743414890
Instead they pushed the budget to mid AAA, and hired SBI, and didn't even have a proper final boss fight.
>>
>>743416959
Nta but doesn't that game have no story? I remember it being presented as if it did in trailers but it's just like a rogue like slender man find the eight pages game
>>
>>743420139
I think what happened is they probably were making a different game that didn't work out at all and then pivoted to this, given how long there was between their last game.
>>
do these clowns seriously think theres a shortage of studios willing to sell out and accept jew money to devlop games about a brave nigger saving the world?

is this from MHWilds?
I don't understand how nobody outside of this basket weaving forum brought up how ugly this game is

This was supposedly a semi autobigoraphical story from the studio chief, at least before SBI stepped in.

Yeah, the whole Blackrock funding people to make slop stuff kinda started to collapsed, a bunch of republicans politicians were able to rub two brain cells together and realise the whole thing was kinda breaking a few anti trust laws, so now Fink is getting used and the whole DEI framework is falling down, a bunch of people are leaving it

This may or may not have something to do with the recent restructuring of the game industry

Dude I liked South of Midnight. it was a great game when it let you do the fun 3D platforming while the soulfull music was playing.
But this was NOT a 100m dollar project wtf is wrong with you? This was a small side project you let a small team do on the side while you work on a real big game.
And the most insane stuff is that all the worst parts of the game are clearly from trying to follow the AAA gamedesign patterns by dragging down otherwise pretty surroundings with yellow(or rather white) chalk/paint.

Tim Schäfer pretty much gave himself and his studio buddies a 5 years long vacation on Microsofts bill.
Keeper is fucking fantastic but it is not a game you need 5 fucking years to make. It just like the pottery brawler should be 6 months at best indie jam games on the side while doing a proper commercial viable game.

I didn't think South of Midnight was even that bad a game. Terrible to market for sure, but it wasn't awful to play.
Woulndn't mind more games with that stop motion look to them.
