During his keynote at the opening of Devcom today, God of War game director shared many interesting tidbits on the behind the scenes development and the making of the game.
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.
Discover Crow Country, the upcoming survival horror game from indie studio SFB Games. Get ready for an original PlayStation-inspired gaming experience as we speak to the developers and get an inside look at the studio and game.
Nintendo made a significant move by issuing a DMCA notice to take down more than 8,500 clones of the popular Switch emulator, Yuzu.
The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.
There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.
lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to
i'm glad for him, glad his vision turned out to be the best thing to happen to GOW since GOW
Ranks as one of the best crafted games of all time in my book. It does everything extremely well from combat to story to graphics to music to enemy design to EVERYTHING.
And to think, the end result is simply a masterpiece, no surprise there.
While there are certain aspects of the prototype gameplay I wish couldn’t stayed into the finished game (certain animations etc..)the end result is the complete package. Great story told with fantastic voice overs/performances/one shot camera. Fluid, fast, and brutal combat, and music that just hits so strong at the right moments.
its still kind of rough in many ways, but its fun, looks nice and people who like video game stories are drawn in. I mean for example when you get the prompt to press in the analog stick the animations can be downright wacky if close to a wall. I still liked it quite a bit, but it felt like a ps2 game with shiny graphics. I also don't get why we still have pretty much all story elements presented in a non interactive way, for me it really takes me out of the experience. But I still bought it and liked it, it was fun even if I started to want to skip much of the cut scenes after a while.
Thank goodness they were given the time and money needed to produce this fantastic game, just with all of Sony's other first party games.
