how is this fucking possible?where is all this money coming from?for comparison a few popular title costs:>bg3 was 100 mil>hl2 was 40 mil>sc2 was 100 mil>gta 5 was 260 mil>skyrim was 100 mil>witcher 3 was 80 mil>elden rign was around 150 mil >fnv was 10 mil
>>749142254From last of us sales

Can't wait for Sony to go NEXT DEV NEXT DEV when it fails to break even
>>749142254managers/execs jumping ship and trying to shift the blame to the next guy>be manager>get 100 million dollar budget for new project>work for a year or 2 on project>realize it fucking sucks>squirm out and give it to someone else>new manager thinks they can salvage the project for 50 million dollars>work a year or 2 on project>realize it fucking sucksrepeat this a few times
Try some therapy, it's good for you.
>>749142313Given that it sold like shit and already costed hundreds of millions, no
>>749142254>how is this fucking possible?Snoy has always been part of the sino-zionist bolshevik cartel
>>749142254AAA games aim for hyper realism in graphics, but that just means more and more and more assets they need to create. It becomes an endless void of busywork that eats up years of dev time. And the silly part is that once your brain acclimates to it, the graphics become "invisible" after a while. And they're so far away from ACTUAL photo realism, it's not funny. They still look like animated characters just with more details.
>>749142254jesus, they're gonna need every single ps5 owner to buy this shit just to break even
>>749142254when you are the face of multiple flops you don't get out of bed for less than 1,000,000+ so it makes sense if you don't think about it
>>749142254Embezzlement, management bloat and DEI hires.
>>749142254It has now passed more time between The Last of Us and the eventual release of this game than it has between the Last of Us and the last Crash game Naughty Dog made.I have no point to make, just an observation.
Is bald Asian even appealing to ball and gun gamers?
>>749142254The crazy part is what you could do with that money. You could build 2400 homes at 250k each. That’s a mountain of materials, transport, and paying a whole crew to bust ass on each and every one of them. That’s more material and sweat than a person can wrap their head around. You could build a whole town. I’m not saying they should, but it highlights just how wasteful the industry is. All that for a mediocre game that could be done for 20-50M on a budget.
>>749143274Houses aside you could fund any number of indie games that have concept that you know that will be bought en-masse and act as their employer-financer to reap the returns later.
>>749142439why are you fuming so much over this thread?
>>749142614Then they already lost. I don't own a single triple A game from this gen.
>>749143932>this gen
>>749142254>elden rign was around 150 milI need source for that.My guess would be not even a third of that
>>749142372>the first studio with the budget devs, when they fall, the next studio picks up the budget and devsI pray the layoffs are brutal and unnecessarily cruel.
>>749142254It's not possible. It' can't be true.
>>749142402this, this is goyim fault dont blame us. And also start supporting Israel we are based, I'm Israel tea chai
>>749144842From what I saw Elden Ring's was somewhere between 14-22 million. The film is over 100 million. Yeah there's a movie in the works. God knows how they'll fucked it up. How do you even make something like that into a movie?
what makes me sad is how much they could do with those budgets if they didn't set out to make a game as off-putting as possible I'm sure the visuals and spectacle will be great, maybe even the gameplay tooso people will play it and put up with the obnoxious story and ugly unlikable protagonisteventually it will happen enough times that those things will be normalized and the audience won't even realize what could have beenit's already happening to zoomers
>>749142713She doesn’t even look Asian. I think the actress is like 1/4 Asian and 3/4 black
>money spent on hiring Hollywood VA's, people like Debra and advertisement599 millions>money spent on the actual devs making the code, art, 3D models, animations, sound design etc.1 million
>>749142713The reason she's bald is because she has an afro.>>749145071She has a black father, yeah. The other half doesn't matter, they always end up looking like el americano.
>>749145124Sounds about right.>1 millionAnd it's all for outsourced Bangladeshi.
>>749142453>Almost made 1 billion with II + II Remastered sales combined>Sold like shitK3K
You could make over 40 New Vegases for the cost of Intergalactic, even after adjusting for inflation.
>>749144789Not everyone on /v/ is a poorcuck with a 15 years old toaster as main gaming platform.
>>749142254It's a Naughty Dog game. One of the most premium studios of the industry.It can rival GTA6 in sales and therefore needs a proper budget.
>>749145386Let chuddy cope in peace.This is gonna /v/'s Odyssey.It will be the GOTY with amazing scores and sales, and retards here will schizocope about some global conspiracy faking the numbers to demoralize them.
>>749145543the whole world cares about GTA. Only americans know about Spayed Dog.
>>749145543>It's a Naughty Dog game. One of the most premium studios of the industry.13 years ago, sure, but that was a long time ago.
>Ohh my baby, Neil, I will give you as much money as possible for your flop>What?! You want to make a spiritual successor to Metal Gear?!?!AAAAUUUUSSS!!!!
>>749142254>how is this fucking possible?Extremely bloated developer with a lot of useless mouths to feed, most of which are probably on a California-sized payroll
>>749145017>The film is over 100 million. Yeah there's a movie in the works.explains the budget for Intergalactic desu
>>749142254This game will NEVER recup the budget spent.Tlou2 was a flop and the tlou2 released after the success of part 1.Intergalactic is a follow up to tlou2, the most hated naughty dog game and rn, people not only dislike ND but also sony first party.There won't be that many people coming back to Sony shit when this game comes out. For sure not as many as there used to.
>>749144952Take your meds /pol/tranny.
>>749142439>they are not real...you do know that, right?Coming from a guy that was crying on twitter when people made porn of Sarah and Ellie, calling them his daughters.
>>749145610You won't be acting so smug when it wins GOTY and breaks sales records.
>>749145679How? The games and film together are still less than 200 million total, that one game is 600 million in and of itself. That's insane.
>>749142254Investors. Based on speculative value based on previous sucesses and loans for pushing DEI messaging. Probably fraud and embezelment as well.
>>749145736While Intergalactic is gonna be a success despite what /pol/trannies parrot, nothing comes close to GTA.
>>749142254Blackrock VanguardJews
>>749142439He talks like a female redditor.
>>749142439my therapist said we had to go back to square one basics and then the next session said we need a month-long break
>>749142254If these numbers are true they will need roughly 8.5mil copies sold just to break even. If even Wolverine struggles to get past 3mil I dont see a way they dont have layoffs given their studio size.
>>749145736>>749145857Even TLOU2, the sequel to one of the biggest games of all time, failed to make a profit. How is Intergalactic going to do that when it's an original IP with an even larger budget.
>>749142254Who even cares about this flop?
>>749142254Americans must be banned from game development.Only then will the medium heal.
>>749145775snoy movie lol
>>749146049Just kick out all the wokies
>>749145991When Wolverine breaks 2M Insomniac will boast about it.
>>749142254Multiple consultants getting paid 500 bucks per hour, HR dept, marketing dept, bribes for reviewers/influencers, embezzlement by suits etc
>>749146000>220 million budget>10 million sales>iT dIdn'T mAkE aNy PrOfIt!!!1!!Numbers and the fact Naughty Dog keeps making games say otherwise. You have no proof but cope. No, talking about secret extra costs or fake profit you only know about cause your Dad works at Nintendo is not an argument.
>>749146098nah if it takes too long they just stay quietdid Saros ever get any sales post?
How many games like that will execs/devs churn out until they give up?
Wokoid trash is made to piss people off, not for earning money
>>749142439>jewish cuckold can only deflect and passively agressively dismiss criticismTypical.
>>749146189>Numbers and the fact Naughty Dog keeps making games say otherwise. You have no proof but cope.Sony mentioned that it lost money in their lawsuit with Microsoft. The lawsuit where they didn't properly redact financial information, if you remember that one.
>>749146197Not sure on Saros. It has the brown tax which directly affects sales. Alinea announced 1.9M after 48 hours. Insomniac never announced 2M which should have come relatively after that. So until Sony or Insomniac give us sales numbers, we can go by 1M pre-orders on Wolverine. Even that is suspect due to cancellations but it's the best we have.
>>749146189Them losing money on the game is public information though
>>749142254>coming fromPrevious titles, sony funding>going toDev count * time
>>749142254It'll make more in revenue, no one care what 4chuds think
>>749146348Revenue != Profit
>>749146189
>>749146348LolIt's a flop in the making
>>749146368>Each game listed takes longer and more money to make>This bald asian dyke fantasy game is taking longer than the others and even more money>PS6 devvelopment couuld easily take 10 years and 1.5 billion dollars Grim.
>>749142254Money launderingTriple A game dev is rife with money laundering. The games are a smokescreen to move money around, hence why they're all cutscenes with extremely barebones gameplay shown (if any)
>>749146425Ask yourself why they do this when Roblox pulls in billions in profit a year.
>>749142439>fag who makes fictional characters ugly, gay and lame because that's "realistic" lectures you about them not being realThanks, this worthless.
>>749142439Cool story Neil, mind telling us why you publicly post pictures of your jewish incestuous rape larping with the downie and justify it with muh holobunga (lol)?
>>749145736>breaks sales recordsnot with that main character
>>749143932why even have a ps5 at that point? just buy an Ouya
>>749145554>leftoids need to cope this hard and defend their corporate overlords and their abysmal shit tier gamesKEK
>>749146348you tell em xista!
>>749146459Retard
>>749142254Step 1: headquarter in one of the most expensive locations on the planet Step 2: bloat your staff for the kickbacks, even though the aforementioned location means that you’ll be eventually paying far more in wages than you’ll get in interest free loansStep 3: have an egomaniac boss that ignores game development so he can larp as the hollywood dogshit he always dreamed ofStep 4: do absolutely fuck all to advance development due to the boss being absent and the managers being happy to do fuck all for an easy paycheckStep 5: panic when you realise that you’ve spent the better part of a decade with jack shit to show for it, causing you to enter a constant crunch state for over a year
>>749146859I honestly don't remember half of these.
>>749142254it doesn't have to make a profit. it's guaranteed to be the biggest game of whatever year it comes out in. it will be all over the internet and will leave its mark on gaming culture just like TLOU I and II did.if it loses money in the process that's fine, this is a long term investment.
>>749146368How is it legal for publicly traded companies to keep costs and revenues secret from the public?
>>749146859>>749147114I remember allanyone who can't recall these flops should leave /v/ for >>>/r/eddit
>>749147114I wish I could say the same. I remember all of them except Directive 8020 and blops 7.
>>749147248>blops 7iirc it's the one with Warzone cut map as the campaign
>>749142254it's not selling anywhere near enough for that cuckman might kill himself
>>749147206TLOU I came at a time where third person movie games were all the rage, console games were naturally building towards that and millenials ate it right up. TLOU II just had to ride the wave of TLOU's success and was guaranteed to make money. Intergalactic is a new IP realing in a completely different market, but with a massively bloated budget. There is no way this is not a gigaflop, probably eclipsing Concord. I just hope it's one of the last of these AAA third person movie games.
>>749147432It also benefitted massively from being a console bundle, so people who would never normally touch it have it a chance
>>749147317Well, seeing as I haven't played a CoD: Black Ops since 1, the later ones all kinda bleed together. No way I'd remember specific details about any one of them. It was just surprising to see the number 7, when I don't even remember hearing about 5 or 6 at all.
>>749142439Fuck you, the cute little fairy that live on my shoulder and love and for who I make comfy dollhouse existWe're getting married soon
>>749142254Yeah it's a good question, and it's particularly baffling when you look at these hyper-expensive games that also end up being small-scope crap like a singe linear campaign you knock out in a few hours. It's not like they're making some impossibly huge game or anything, how the fuck are they spending this much?
>>749147239Why should I keep up with this stupid bullshit? If it flops it's meant to be forgotten. The studios closed and got punished for making shit, this isn't like TORtanic where Bioware got bailed out.
>>749146348It would be very lucky to turn a profit even if it had an appealing protagonist. As it is there's absolutely no chance.
>>749147541there's no BO5 actually, it was called B"O: Cold War"
>>749147661>Why should I keep up with this stupid bullshit?to learn the signs of a guaranteed flop
>>749147940You can already tell at a glance. It isn't some divine revelation. Every one of those games looks terrible, there's a reason they flopped.
>>749146859The fuck is the red one beside marathon?
>>749147940Just remember the people behind these games.Most of them get hired somewhere else to ruin the next game
>>749142439Cuckman is legitemetly a retard and I dont mean in in a derogetory way. I think hes genuenly mentaly deficient.
>>749148047not /v/ but Josh Haber is still """ freelance""" after killing Friendship is Magic lol
>>749148025lesbo knight, think wokie wanna-be dawnwalker
>>749147913Kinda like there wasn't a Modern Warfare 1, because it was actually CoD4:MW?
>>749147206it won't gta 6 pc edition will cuck it to death
>>749148465With MW1 it makes sense becauae it was literally the first game in (what would later become) a sub-series of CoDBO5 is just them dropping absurdly big number just to get it back with BO6
>>749145017they make a intergalactic movie?Am i reading that right the game isnt even out yet
Did they really think that the woke fad was going to last forever?
>>749142254Are sonyfags desperate enough for new games to buy this?
