Happy New Year, loam lords! This year we have big plans for Shovel Knight! There’s a lot of news, so let’s dig in! Announcement time!
Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove and Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment will be released for Nintendo Switch!
The next Witcher game will still be an RPG but players can expect new things as CD Projekt Red want to push boundaries and discover new ways of storytelling.
Bethesda seems like a studio that is "stuck in the same spot". Development wise. Glad CDPR are wary of that element in game design.
Industry insider Dusk Golem reveals that there is no Resident Evil 1 Remake in the works. Instead, Capcom are reportedly in active development of Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica.
RE Zero would be better to do first over RE1 because they can tie the story into RE1 more.
The original RE Remake was weird because Rebecca never mentioned anything about what happened in Zero and it felt so disjointed because Zero was developed during the Remake and they clearly didn't share any notes with one another.
Founder of Metal: Hellsinger studio says he wasn't against Game Pass until their game launched on Microsoft's service, which affected game sales.
Why did PS copy gamepass if it's so terrible and unprofitable? PS Now was before gamepass but it was streaming trash that no one had any interest in.
And honestly the way the industry releases overpriced and broken games with day one season passes and dlc who wouldn't want to just pay for a subscription instead of $70 per game?
Only biased PS fans would defend paying more to a corporation rather than an option that's cheaper for the consumer overall. If it's from an indie studio that needs the sales that's different but games published by larger companies are fine on a subscription model. Also any of these devs who complain did decide to put their games on gamepass in thr first place.
I feel no sympathy for the guy, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that putting your game on gamepass would affect sales.
The 'day-one' feature is the breaker or maker with GP, business-wise.
GP is no Netflix.
Because, from all the Marvel's Avengers to Sicarios, illustratively speaking, they all had their box office money. Before they had entered Netflix.
This concept shows you what Microsoft have actually put themselves into.
And what situation studios put themselves into if they go day-one into GP.
Why not sell your game the traditional way first? Then after about 6 months to a year put it on a sub service.
Day one on gamepass is a gamble. It works for some (Pal world) and not for others.
Awesome news. Will definitely pick it up to go along my Wii U and Vita copies.
Thats a huge indie announcement for Switch, it seems the console is going to be perfectly supported by indie devs.
Well I was goIng to continue waiting for Shovel Knight to get a discount on PSN, but hearing that they'll increase the price this spring makes me think that isn't going to happen.
Looks like I'll have to take the plunge. I just hope Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove content is also available on PS3 cuz I didn't see it listed in that article.
That coop update sounds pretty tasty too.
Is switch guna hve enuff ram for shovel knight >.>
