What Remains of Edith Finch has been a highly acclaimed game thus far. And while the developers, Giant Sparrow, who released their games only on PlayStation (The Unfinished Swan was only on PlayStation since Sony was the publisher), have eschewed PlayStation exclusivity with this title, and released it on PC, too, there is still no Xbox One version in sight.

Secondly, I want to ensure we actively look at the sentiment and create a holistic view of WHY feedback is given. And my working theory is that TTK is too high."
Druckmann claims the tech could 'push the boundaries of storytelling in games.'
I’m more interested in what else he said.
“Neil Druckmann says new Naughty Dog title could ‘redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming’

every time naughty dog make a game, you play it and get the feeling "this is not possible'
from the boulder running towards you in crash, on ps1,
to the massive open world of jak and daxter, on ps2,
to the QuickTime events sequences of uncharted on ps3/4
and now we will see what they do with ps5,
Arrogant asshole who sniffs his own farts bigs up next game…sounds like typical PR to me
You know what I find interesting? Almost every site reporting this as the main title where the REAL interesting bit of the interview is Neil praising AI and saying it will be used to help push story, characters, dialogue and more.
It’s super shitty to big up AI especially when it comes to story telling and other creative elements.
Just because someone says this type of stuff, it doesn't mean that it's guaranteed to be good news.
You can say this about microtransactions. MXTs revolutionised the gaming industry.
He also said it has "ethical issues we need to address" but of course that doesn't get the clicks.
I’m all for it. Cuts the time to make a game. Look, Hellblade 2 took 5 years to make, if AI can do that in half the time, as a consumer, I support it.
Hidetaka Miyazaki appeared in an interview to discuss the future of the Elden Ring DLC and FromSoftware's future plans.
I hope Bluepoint are working on BB remake..
Sony now seem to have lost it with all the gaas, i have no hope in seeing them approaching FS to make a sequel. I hope gamers will push Sony and show continuous disapproval to the gaas model
U probably right about the remake it is maybe too early. A performance mode would be more welcome at this point
can we get new ideas instead of remakes? gamers are the most nostalgia driven on this earth istg
The problem with new ideas is that they are often riddled with modern gaming problems like battle/season passes, MTX, DEI and/or agenda pushing narratives rather than making something fun.
We look to nostalgia because the magic was still alive and well, where as now it's often limited to indies.
Look at how Bluepoint changed the art for demons souls. I wouldn’t want them doing that for Bloodborne
Compare their releases. How many are GaaS and how many are not. Put the number here for people to see.
I don’t know how to feel, Armored Core just isn’t as good as Elden Ring, Dark Souls, Bloodborne and the like.
I hope he does a new IP instead
I love the Armored Core series, I hope it becomes a regular thing again, like it was back in the PS2 days, we've been starved of AC games for a long time. Although I prefer the gameplay in the PS2 games personally. AC6 was really fun though.
The last game was a difficult challenge. I had trouble beating that last boss
I'm hoping for a Sci fi game. I guess armored core would be Sci fi but I'm not talking about that. I'd like a new Sci fi game
Fortunately, if you're not interested in the AC series, he doesn't say he plans to drop everything to work exclusively on the next one, as implied by the article header. Just general comments about it being an important series he wants to be involved with at some point.
Wouldn't shock me if it eventually released on Xbox One. Many indie games that launched first on PS4 like Rocket League, Outlast, Abzu, The Witness, eventually came to Xbox One. The install base of the Xbox One is large enough and development similar enough that most studios will opt to bring games over.
Good despite the fact I enjoyed the game from start to finish it ran horrible on my OG PS4 and apparently is only a better on Pro by a minor margin. The Scorpio should make the game more enjoyable well as long as the price point is right.
Word to the wise though if it struggled on a PS4 I don't want to imagine what it would be like on a standard XB1 or XB1 S perhaps outputting it to 720p or 480p might help (not joking here it ran very poorly on PS4).
