Hideo Kojima is back! After unveiling the trailer for Death Stranding at the PlayStation conference, Gameblog have come to learn more. Meeting with a changing creator.
The president of Nintendo expects the game development cycle to be more complex and more lengthy in the future.
That's why this guy gets paid the big dollars...no one else could of worked that out...
During Devstream 179 for Warframe, Digital Extremes unveiled a lot of exciting information for stuff coming to the game, and we were able to ask about some of it!
In a poignant announcement, Dutch indie developer Paladin Studios bid farewell after an impressive run spanning “almost 19 years.”
Considering the level of games they made, I'm surprised that more than 2 people worked there. 45 people (+ outsourcing) making mediocre mobile games, like cut the rope. I mean dude....Nintendo stooped to new lows in quality development and entertainment standards.
Basically Sony was their best option.Thats the commitment of PS.
It would be awesome if his new team would create a next gen re-imagining of snatcher.
It was the PlayStation brand that brought him into mainstream popularity after all, as he himself described last Dec.
he chose the safest route. the ps4 is dominating, it has the power, and it will offer the best chance to sell the most copies. he could have gone with ea, ubisoft or activision but he's japanese and his loyal fanbase would be very upset.
he could have went independant but he doesn't have the capital to fund his project that is likely to cost a lot of money.
I feel like this was the right choice for several reasons.
Kojima has had a strong relationship with Sony since the beginning and he is passionate for the PS brand.
And this being his first game outside of Konami, it makes sense for him to partner with sony to not only get his team on their feet and ensure creative freedom but to strengthen the relation between him and Sony.
I don't think its anything personal against Xbox and PC, he just has a strong relationship with Sony/Playstation. And this is a smart move on his part.
