at the Bandai Namco Games Global Gamers Day in Las Vegas, City Interactive Senior Producer Tomasz Gop previews the new RPG Lords of the Fallen in this exclusive interview.
Lords of the Fallen is out now on Game Pass, and a new update improves performance and adds two new Boss Rush modes.
Saad from eXputer: "After suffering from massive financial hits, Square Enix & Bandai Namco appear to be turning over a new leaf but I'm still unconvinced."
I was talking about games with some Japanese guys here in Japan, and it seems like around here Bandai Namco has a fame of making low-quality games, with the occasional gem.
About Square Enix, I believe they lack the capacity to improve. They should learn with Capcom (although even Capcom still makes some bad mistakes), but I don't think they ever will. They keep chasing whatever is new at the time (blockchain, AI...) to say "we innovate", without considering the public perception and if these things actually improve the games or not. Them releasing too many small games with no advertising also shows a lack of trust in its own products. Even with their biggest games, like turning FF into an action game with XVI and the very divisive plot changes regarding whispers and timelines in VII Remake, shows them trying to attract a new generation of gamers without understanding what made the series so big in the first place.
I don’t know why NOW they decide on this, but I guess later is better than never.
Are you ready to become the Master of Fate? That's what you'll be doing with the latest free update for Lords of the Fallen.
Even the developer says this game is going to be hard.
Rather, for sure, but it's forever complaining, it still does not convince.;) And will not be easy, if only because almost every opponent you will have to approach differently, and not for a madman waving sabers.
I agree with you totally. This game can surprise us and be one of the best RPG games in this year. Sounds great so I can't wait for this game. Three class is already a standard in game like this.
The games are hard for someone and easy to others. We can see in gameplay that we have to try couple of times to defeat enemy. If I like game I always play on hardest difficulty it gives me more fun.
