What major game studio is next on the chopping block?
>>750163705Nigger.
Bungie
Why would Naughty Dog have issues? Bioware made multiple flops for 10 years while Naughty Dog has had only out of the park hits. It will take multiple failed games over a long period of time for Naughty Dog to have issues.
>>750164096Their last 3 releases were dreadful either pitiful sequels or remakes. The good co writer left now Druck is running up a 600m budget for this nothing burger fetish game.
>>750164213The budget is actually 600 trillion. Sony will go bankrupt.Before GTA 6 releases. Please God.
Remember Wolverine? I already almost forgot about it.
>>750164328It was a huge failure. Sony went bankrupt because of it, right? Please.
>>750164328I remember the one on the 360. Would be nice if we’d got another Wolverine game but no such luck.
>>750164096lol nigger the last 10 years they did nothing but release the same two games, over and over
>>750163705The absolute cope and seethe on Reddit when naughty dog gets toe tagged is going to be glorious. They’re already making so many excuses for Bioware and blaming everything on EA and throwing around their favorite “enshitification” buzzword, lol. TOTAL CHUD VICTORY.
>>750164328Were Wolverine's official sales numbers ever released or is it still just guesswork?
>>750164213>fetishRight? It used to all be played for fun untill all these new ones showed up with pre loaded conceptions. They took it all wayyy to seriously
>>750163705Rockstar.GTA 6 will bomb hard (but be financially successful since every NPC pre-ordered, which will be a cataclysmic event for the entire industry except like always Nintendo.
>>750164213>>750164473?????? Their games sold over 10 million copies. There is no way they are going under anytime soon.>but I didn't think the games were that greatDoesn't matter. It's not a democracy, you vote with you wallet. And they won.
>>750164842>Rockstar
>>750165787Like, they sold 10 millions each, or cumulatively?
Obsidian
>>750163771This is the most obvious answer. That and whatever studio is working on fair games
why did the platformer genre have to die?
>>750167502Because no platformer in the early 2000s reached GTA3's numbers and Western devs were already eager for an excuse to start making mature games for mature gamers like themselves. Bad Fur Day wasn't an outlier, it was a bellwether.
>>750166357Each. And they sold over 10 million.
>>750164740still guesswork
>>750167502Because that's not what people wanted to play.
>>750166397>Obsidian>MajorHeh
>>750164096>out of the park hitsTLOU2 did so poorly they canceled the sequel
>>750163705
>>750168256It sold like 14m copies
>>75016639750 : 50 on whether Obsidian will reform itself.
>>750167502There's new platformers all the time tho?
>>750163705Bungie, Naughty Dog, From Software, Rockstar Games, Larian Studio, Capcom, Bethesda Softworks, ID Software, Team Ninja.
>>750163705Do you think Cuckmann ever feels like he made a mistake? Like maybe he flew just a little bit too close to the sun to own the chuds by making his own games gay, ugly, and lame? Do you think he wishes he could go back? Well he can't now. He was the one who sealed his own fate.
>>750164842>GTA 6 will bomb hard (but be financially successfulWhat the fuck is this schizo even trying to say
I'd put money on Insomniac. On Kalshi. Bet on Kalshi!
>>750163705Whoever shat out Queers of War.
>>750163705>Bald dyke Star Wars knockoff will save the studio
>>750168662and yet they canceled the sequel, so clearly it wasn't enough
>>750168256TLOU2 sold over 10 million copies and they didn't cancel a sequel.
BioWare have released two games - both flops - since 2017 and their most profitable title in forever has been a shitty cash shop MMO.
>>750163705There hasn't been a major studio yet. Just a bunch of PC cringe.
>>750168662On a huge budget. But they probably broke even or made a little profit.This game's budget is probably double TLOU2 and there is no way it's selling even 10milly. This game will finish in the red after all things are said and done.It blows my mind, because I read a leak of the game story and it was actually really good if that was legit. All they had to do was not make the MC an avatar for their retarded LGBTQ fantasies to own chuds and focused on the gameplay/story and it would do double of it's trajectory.
>>750164305>Please God.Sources say Sony is stable.
>>750169385Which one of SEGA and or Square/Enix do you see Nintendo buying? None is an acceptable answer as well... I guess I'm leaning none unless the price is right. Rare that Nintendo does large scale acquisitions.
Nah, next predicted gigaflop that will cause heads to roll is the new Fable. It's also taken forever to make and has a ridiculously bloated budget.
>>750163705Druckman is one of the Chosen, he's invincible.
>>750168256they cancelled some faggy online live service thing
>>750170003they make Forza, they'll survive
>>750163705Hopefully bethesda in the next decade or so
>>750163705Santamonica, bungie, naughty dog, bugthesda. Basically everything that makes plebstation gaems or makes shit ass gaems.
>>750163705For some games it's not that simple. My favorite part of game development is the fact that they've been cooking these games for years and they literally have no choice but to release a stinker that will come back to smack them in the face.Sometimes they get a new CEO, or bought out by a larger company, and in comes the new guy/woman who says, "Alright, wrap this up and ship it. We need to get some money back." Lmao. Like the kids quickly scribbling in their homework as the teacher comes around to pick it up.
>>750169348It will be woke slop and possibly broken on consoles and will only make money because of sheep pre-renting. Which will cause trust to collapse and make future R* games sell worse and worse. This is what he's trying to say.
>>750168662(((Investors))) were expecting 30 million without all the bundles being counted
>>750169282>BungieLikely>Naughty DogVery likely>From SoftwareExtremely unlikely>Rockstar GamesUnlikely but they bet everything on a single game at a time, there is a small possibility >Larian StudioUnlikely>CapcomUnlikely>Bethesda SoftworksSame with rockstar but in this case it's far more likely and actually a scary possibility for todd>ID SoftwarePossible>Team NinjaWho?
>>750170278True. Tism core games will survive no matter what
There will be a mega restructuring because it turns out AI can take a look at animation and mimic it perfectly so it's pointless to make a game since everything can get recomped in a day. The only question now is how many tokens will be made available to developers. AI is excellent at making soap opera slop narrative so you can expect Last of Us clones that have 100 hours of runtime within the year.
>>750170558>everything I don't like is le wokePlease off yourself chudcel
>>750170883I hate to say it, yeah. Basically why I switched from every other genre to strictly military sims. It's very hard to kill that scene. They will make games from plastic and cardboard if they have to.
>>750164096They'd need to make a game where you can shoot synagogue statues for someone to close them down.
>>750163705I think this game won't disappoint only because Sony doesn't get a lot of quality games. Its ND's take on Elden Ring and while it won't reach those heights its going to get a lot of praise for ripping them off.
Gotta be insomniac. Spiderman 2 didin't perform as well as it could, Wolverine was hot garbage. idk man, three strike rule seems to be in effect.
>>750171535Wolverine is breaking sales records, the sequel is already confirmed, the studio is safe for 10 more years cope
>>750168662...and its multiplayer DLC canned and its sequel were shelved.
>>750164473and retards bought it 3x in a row>>750163705every ND game is shit and yet they sell 20 million copies. normies and consolefags are subhuman goys who will buy ANYTHING you tell them to
>>750172047Jak and Daxter was fun
>>750172130fundamentally not the same company who made those games
Intergalactic will undoubtedly flop but it won't kill Naughty DogThey have two or three more flops in them before they die
>>750167502Grow up weirdo tendiephile
>ctrl + f rocksteady>0/0come on guys...
Hopefully Halo studios but realistically it'll probably be a studio people actually like, like Fromsoft dying to some kadokawa legalese bullshit to continue the worldwide demoralization campaign
>>750172740I forgot they were still alive. I don't even know what they are working on after that Suicide Squad game.
>>750164096Did you forget they cancelled a Live Service TLOU project they were close to finishing? All that money GONE for nothing.
>>750163705All of them. I want Western games to thrive. That means a harsh culling where the next generation will shit their pants if they even think about making a game that players (specifically: players) don't want to play when they think about the financial insolvency of years past where "too big to fail" eventually did.
No more Crash Bandicoot feels bad man
>>750170558Cyberpunk was an absolute disaster on launch, and still sold millions of copies, and people still love CDPR, Witcher 3 hit the game's peak of CCU with the recent remaster.
>tfw THE game you were looking forward to was The Last of Us Factions 2/TLOU Online>it was literally THE game that kickstarted every modern cancellation and live service botch>it was the only one that actually had a genuine reason to exist in the first place>was aborted at 80% completion
