The existence of an alleged Red Dead Redemption remaster grows as the game's achievements get a surprise update, but one element from Rockstar Games is unclear.
Danish from eXputer: "The Witcher's upcoming sequel needs to overhaul the series' combat system if it wants to make a big splash among gamers."
Saad from eXputer: "After suffering from massive financial hits, Square Enix & Bandai Namco appear to be turning over a new leaf but I'm still unconvinced."
I was talking about games with some Japanese guys here in Japan, and it seems like around here Bandai Namco has a fame of making low-quality games, with the occasional gem.
About Square Enix, I believe they lack the capacity to improve. They should learn with Capcom (although even Capcom still makes some bad mistakes), but I don't think they ever will. They keep chasing whatever is new at the time (blockchain, AI...) to say "we innovate", without considering the public perception and if these things actually improve the games or not. Them releasing too many small games with no advertising also shows a lack of trust in its own products. Even with their biggest games, like turning FF into an action game with XVI and the very divisive plot changes regarding whispers and timelines in VII Remake, shows them trying to attract a new generation of gamers without understanding what made the series so big in the first place.
With confirmation that Larian Studios will not develop another Baldur's Gate game, the fourth entry has a major challenge on its hands.
Larian had big shoes to fill themselves. Hopefully another studio can pull off the same miracle, but uphill battle is an understatement at this point. It feels impossible that BG3 even exists and accomplishes what it does.
I doubt anyone will attempt a Baldur’s Gate 4 for minimum a decade. It took about 20 years to get a third one for a a reason.
Maybe, but the main reason the GTA DE sucks is because it's all based on mobile ports of the games from 2013 and they've just been repurposing that for crap console ports ever since. RDR does not have a crappy mobile port so maybe it'll do better, but we'll see. If it's given to Grove Street Games I'm losing hope 😅
I have no interest replaying 100+ hour games, how about GTA6 first?!
The developer seemed to transition GTA V to PS4 then to PS5 smoothly, will little updates here and there. Perhaps, Rockstar wants a read dead 2 current gen release to be a big step up from the original or they just don’t find a current gen update worthy of their time and effort. I would be happy if they just updated the game with 60fps, and SSD fast loading times.
