Ready at Dawn with an injection of Sony money and resources would be a great studio for PlayStation. They are a very talented studio that are culturally aligned with PlayStation devs (including previous work with their IPs/studios as well as experience with VR). They just got hanged because of one game that didn't work out (the same could've happened to Bend had they been forced to release Days Gone earlier, not to mention SSM that got one of their games cancelled).
Big ups to him for the Rocko avatar. Love that show!
Also not surprising, there will probably be a good deal more RAD people re-joining PlayStation. Working for Meta in regards to gaming is pretty much a lost cause now.

If Order 1886 was a success, i am willing to bet Sony would have bought them. They made great psp GOW games nad Daxter was the best Jak spinoff
Fuckkk yesss! As a fan of computer graphics, this guy was a big reason behind why The Order 1886 looked so good. Almost cgi quality at times. I lowkey wish he was joining Guerilla so he could work on Decima, but SSM is fine too. SSM have lost the graphics crown for a while now, I don't find GOWR that good looking. I just hope more Ready At Dawn folks like Andrea find there way back to Playstation
IMO, any shortcoming with Ragnarok's graphics was down to it being crossgen.
Good to see talent put to good use for the benefit of gamers.
It doesn't look that great to me even for a cross gen game. HFW, and Miles both look better to me. GoW 2018 didn't look that great to me either so they haven't really impressed me for a while. None of their games look bad artistically, it's the engine which looks dated to me.
So, Santa Monica do realize they have to improve their engine. Ragnarok didn't show much progress over GOW 2018.
Asgard looked amazing, almost life like at some stages
Agreed, if anybody could come and save that engine, it's this man. They just need to give him free reign to implement all the techniques he did in the order to make it look so CGI quality.
The GOW isn't bad from rendering side. It's actually good.
The problem seems to be eith how it handles data streaming. Hence, they have small levels and too many squeeze sections. Even for last gen standards, it was too much.
