Final Fantasy XV Director Hajime Tabata commented on the hottest topic in the whole game industry: loot boxes. He also said that his dream Final Fantasy game would empower players with complete freedom.
Following a recent interview with Sony, Naughty Dog head Neil Druckmann claims the original intent was “unfortunately lost” in the process.
Glad he clarified it but i'm still somewhat skeptical. Plus, his comments about how Ai will revolutionize storytelling were still pretty iffy.
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’
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.
CD Projekt RED and Yigsoft have launched The Witcher 3 REDkit on PC. We interviewed both studios to discuss the release of these mod tools.
The Pitioss Ruins he talks about are the absolute highpoint of FFXV. Seriously, that should be the first thing people do once they reach the postgame.
Really need to get back into Final Fantasy XV. I really enjoyed it but think into distracted by something shiny and never came back.
FF with complete freedom? would be a dream game
Like he'd ever criticize loot boxes. The company that employs him are currently running a dozen or so f2p games with gacha systems in them. Heck, he was likely involved in the creation of two of them: Justice Monsters Five and King's Knight: Wrath of the Dark Dragon. There's also A New Empire, which he probably had at least some involvement in.
Open world yada yada yada. Make a proper finished story first next time.
