Bloodborne Remake ~ PS6 launch title
:P

jznrpg101d ago (Edited 101d ago )

Or PS5 Pro possibly. I’m fine with PS6 though.

Cacabunga101d ago

How about a 60fps patch to begin with?

jwillj2k4101d ago (Edited 101d ago )

The only time I’d be happy with yet another current gen remake

raWfodog101d ago

It’d be even better if it was a sequel 😳

CrimsonWing69101d ago

Yo, I wish we'd do sequels more. Like, don't get me wrong I'd play this, but it's disheartening to here Remake this and Remaster that, when I'd love to see more of the universe with new surprises and experiences.

1nsomniac101d ago (Edited 101d ago )

..But how then would management and shareholders continue to strangle the industry with their capitalist continual profit growth strategies???

/s

CrimsonWing69101d ago

Haha, I mean I get that they’re cheaper to produce… I think. But I’m thinking of things like Dead Space Remake and how it would’ve been cool to actually get a next-gen Dead Space 4 and just wow players with new things. Same with this, I mean, yea the game is flippin’ amazing, but I really would rather see newer things that expand the lore and universe than to continuously play through a prettier version of the same game.

I see articles on here saying such and such should get a Remake and Remaster and it makes me so grateful we didn’t have this mentality in the good ol’ days when we could get Dead Space 1-3, Resident Evil 1-3 on PS1, etc. I just miss when sequels were in demand and not saying, “Hey this was such a great game last-gen let’s totally remake it on current-gen!!!”

MrBaskerville101d ago

@CrimsonWing69
Yeah, I agree. While I appreaciate DS remake, A fourth game would have been cooler, then they could have thrown a quick collection of ports together to supplement.

anast100d ago

I agree, but sadly I will be buying this day 1, so I am not helping the issue.

Magatsuhi101d ago

If they do a bloodborne remake, I want Miyazaki to take the helm on the project. Bluepoint does great work but they ruined the feel of the original demons souls particularly with their music remakes. Not everything needs a choir.

Chard101d ago

Yeah, I didn't realise at the time since I never played the original, but seeing the side by side footage made me dislike it more and I'd be mad if they messed with Bloodborne like that

Magatsuhi100d ago

Yes! I think BB def has one of the best soundtracks in the souls series right next to DMS imo. What they did to the fools idol theme was infuriating and I'm annoyed that people think the remake music fits. It doesn't.

Babadook7100d ago

No. The remake is still my game if the gen not counting VR. The graphics are a great improvement.

Magatsuhi100d ago

No doubt the graphics are a major improvement, don't think anyone is denying that. However, the tone of the game completely shifted with the music. Every boss is now an epic battle and to give this a pass shows that you simply don't understand the lore and story behind the characters. DMS is not supposed to grandiose such as DS3 and so to give a heroic theme to a character like garl vinland is to have completely misunderstood the tragedy behind him and astraea.

Blupoint makes excellent graphics but it's clear they don't invest time into the lore which is why they totally misfired with the music. I also read some people were upset with certain things in their other remakes so it's not surprising that this happened. All the more reason why Miyazaki needs to be in control.

Babadook7100d ago (Edited 100d ago )

I’ll definitely take another Bluepoint port here though. Regarding De Souls Remake; the music didn’t bother me, and the graphics and fluidity were better than what other studios would have achieved, including From.

KwietStorm_BLM101d ago

Well that pretty much confirms the PS6 rumor. Probably launch showcase title like Demon's Souls

Abnor_Mal101d ago

Well Fromsoft just made the decision of if I get a PS6.

Days Gone Director Says Bend's Project Costs Over $250M; Says PS Co-CEO Doesn't Want 2 Zombies Games

Days Gone director claims Sony has already poured in at least a $250M in Bend's project; says Days Gone sold more than Death Stranding.

shinoff21831d 7h ago

Well that sucks. Seems they want more online trash. I'd rather of had the sequel if it was single player

MrNinosan16h ago

What online trash games did PS Studios release last 10 years?

Notellin14h ago

The past has nothing to do with the future. This is such a terrible argument. Everyone knows about their current live service push.

_SilverHawk_13h ago

It's so tragic what happened to days gone. It is such an amazing game but bandwagoners trashed it and it underperformed in it's launch year. Days gone is the best open world zombie game released in the past five years. I was recently playing it on pc and I'm still amazed by it.

Games are very expensive to make and it seems like it's normal for a AAA game to cost over a quarter billion to make so if a quality game like days gone greatly underperforms then people shouldn't be upset when they see a lot of GAAS. I still remember a lot of bandwagoners calling days gone trash but years later it's now amazing when it's considered a failure by sony.

If a game isn't the best thing seen since hats with pockets then a lot of gamers who haven't played it automatically calls it rubbish and whoever made it should be incarcerated

Cacabunga12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

Co CEO prefers gamers to boycott.. so be it. I’ll never buy a gaas.
Just imagine buying a game you cannot replay in some years.. this shit must stop.

Days Gone did zombies in a very original way. The story was also so engaging. You actually only meet Zombie hordes later in the game. There are many more enemy groups to deal with.

MrNinosan10h ago

@Notelin
I am one of the few who bought Days Gone on release day and loved it completely.
However, "more online trash" is phrased like Sony has put out alot of trash online games.
We got what, 2 games? Helldivers 2 and GT7, 2 of the most sold Playstation games where both is loved by millions.

You, me and especially shinoff has no idea if Fairgames, Marathon and Concord will be trash.

Just because we (as in you and me) don't love or support online games, doesn't mean millions of other do.

And we don't know what Bend Studio is working with? We don't know if they're forced to make a online game or another amazing single player experience.

The only thing we do know is that it's not Days Gone, sadly due to poor sales the first 6 months.

shinoff21838h ago(Edited 8h ago)

More online trash wasmt meant how insee it comes across. I should've worded it different I was meaning the focus they currently have on it.

Anything online is online trash to me. How long did naughty dog spend on that dumba last of us multiplayer, how about Concord, or even the other couple we hear about. I fk with Sony because rpgs and their 1st party single player games. Been like that for years. I hate seeing them waste time, money, and talent on trash. I understand bot every game is gonna be for me but this focus they've seem to had on multiplayer is extremely disheartening. Even at the state of play the only things I was really feeling were Astrobot and silent hill 2 and I'm content with that, not everything is for me. It's just the online focus I hate. Ms bought up 3 to 4 wrpgs developers, Sony just ignores rpgs 1st party wise.

And a days gone 2 would've been much better then whatever online sht bend is working on. I do know sometimes I get very idk emotional. I do need to work on toning that down a bit lol

It would be a shame if it was true that Hermen never gave the franchise a chance simply because he didn't like it and they already had a "Zombie" game with TLOU.

NaughtyDog are most likely moving onto a new IP next so it would have been the perfect time to do it.

ThinkThink23h ago

Here's where xbox steps in and releases state of decay 3 day and date on ps5.

shinoff21838h ago

I mean it's not out of the realm of possibility at this point.

Grilla16h ago

Days gone 2 was canceled before Herman was in charge. That happened like 4 years ago.

vfl52315h ago

4 years ago he was head of Playstation Studios. He would've probably had a hand in the cancelation.

Notellin14h ago

Man two seconds of research could have saved you from this comment. Amazing work Grilla you fit in with the uniformed N4G community who speaks before verifying anything that they say.

Redemption-6413h ago

Maybe encourage people to buy the game at full price and not when it's heavily discounted or go on plus. If this game had sold well when it was full priced a sequel would have been in the works. They made a single-player game that most people didn't support until they dropped the price.

Cacabunga11h ago

The guy’s just a moron.. he should have stayed within game development. His choices will have a terrible impact on the brand in the long run.

tay87012h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Dude is pretty pathetic. Sounds like a guy who's girl left him for someone better. Always talking about days gone sequel that never was, even though he is no longer at bend and hasnt been for a while. I for one am not upset about the lack of a sequel. It is one of the worst 1st party games in recent memory. Completely jank, played like an xbox game. The only redeeming quality was the hordes.

excaliburps17h ago

Yep. Kind of weird since it wasn't a sales flop, no?

I know we have to take what Ross says with a grain of salt since we're hearing just one side of the story, but even so, the game wasn't bad at all. Heck, it's my brother's favorite last-gen game from what I recall.

The amount of zombies on screen, imagine that with the PS5 and SSD? That would be insanely fun!

Grilla16h ago

Most copies were sold on sale. Not enough ppl bought it at full price. I paid 20$ for it 6 -7 months after release.

Notellin14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Yeah we should never believe the creators side until we hear the corporate/big business side as history has shown we should always believe billion dollar corporations.

What a bootlicker statement.

derek10h ago

@Notellin, of course you'll believe an embittered ex-employee with an axe to grind because it's evil Sony he's complaining about. You guys act like days gone was this huge success and somehow Sony hates easy money a sequel would have generated. The game was mid and so was the response to it. They're still supporting the developer who is making a new ip that could be great.

shinoff21838h ago

Days gone was fantastic. I bought day one but didn't get around to it for months. When I finally did I was pissed at myself for waiting so long lol

P_Bomb16h ago

Well I don’t want 10 live service games, but they have no problem doing that lol. Ugh.

CrimsonWing6916h ago(Edited 16h ago)

Oh great so we only get what the big wigs want… y’know, the people that really have their fingers on the pulse of what their consumers want. Faaaaantastic!

rippermcrip13h ago

Well consider they know the sales... they do know what the consumer wants.

It sold shit.

-Foxtrot8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

But if it’s true what this guy says it sold better than Death Stranding

Yet that got a sequel and Kojima aside out of them both DS didn’t really NEED a sequel compared to Days Gone which ended on such a cliff hanger twist.
