For the second generation in a row, Frozenbyte will be one of the first developers to release a game on a new Nintendo platform. Based out of Helsinki, they are most well-known for the critically acclaimed Trine series. Has-Been Heroes is a brand new IP that Nintendo showed off at the Switch reveal event on January 12th.
Just Pause had a chance to speak with Kai Tuovinen from Frozenbyte a bit about the game, Frozenbyte, and Switch development in general.
While Sony hasn’t revealed what some of its first-party studios like Housemarque is cooking currently, the company has revealed what focus they’re aiming for at the very least.
If it's live service it's a "no" from me. I'll take a Days Gone sequel though...
I’m not going to war with people who like GaaS. Lord knows everyone went apesh*t for Helldivers 2, but I will never buy a GaaS game and while PS5 is my system of choice I will not support Sony games that go in this direction.
I hate it, I don’t care how much Helldivers 2 was “GaaS done right,” and if the argument is these are the only way for the industry to make profit then all I have to say is something has gone terribly terribly wrong.
On the flip side I guess I’ll start saving more money if it’s mostly going to be GaaS games.
That's great news. Hopefully the Coalition can smooth some of those edges from the last Avowed reveal.
Well I'm annoyed. Especially at all the ppl who said the graphics sucked. It's your fault they probably shifted the game to unreal so it could look more fancy for you. I was ok with it and hoping to actually play it sometime soon. Now it's like 99% chance it's delayed.
Edit: effing graphics whores
Apparently the latest build looks way better graphically. This rumor from Jez Cordin (who's credible) pretty much confirms it.
Interested in seeing more on Avowed in a few weeks.
I liked the games unique artstyle when It was revealed. I hope they're not making the migration based on criticism. It's only a rumor anyways
This was the only game I was jealous of, but It's a wait and see game now. Plus, I can wait until they release it on PSN.
In case you were curious, a Steam account transfer via will is not permitted according to an official response from Valve.
Would be nice if the article's writer looked into and reported whether other digital game libraries could be transferred over via will (Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo, EGS, EA app, GOG, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar Launcher etc) instead of this half-baked piece but it's probably the same for all of them anyway
This seems like a way bigger issue than mandatory PSN account linking for PlayStation games.
So where is the outcry?
