Why is Insomniac Games Incapable of making a successful new IP?

I did. It's a Ubi game with a Spider-Man skin.

Ok, we'll agree to disagree then.

Far from it, but keep trying, you may make a convincing argument some day!

Someone who has played Spiderman would have a more detailed critique of the game than simply "it's like Ubi game with Spiderman".

Funny enough, if there's a PS Studios that can be considered like a Ubisoft open world experience is Ghost of Tsushima. It's almost literally assassin's creed Japan, only with better UI and amazing combat.

Yeah ... I think these formulas need to be updated soon. It's getting a bit stale IMO, and I know we are getting a GoT 2.

GoT was one of my least favourite PS Studios games, and I'd rate it at most an 8.5/10. It's fun, the combat os great and the game is charming as hell, but the stiffness in the characters, the lack (at the beginning) of Japanese lip sync and the closeness to Assassin's Creed, a franchise I can't stand, put me a bit off.

Though the combat is just galaxies ahead of AC which is what saved it for me.

It's specially funny when they also claim BotW is very innovative and talk as it would have invented the open world games.

Why is @Sleepy Brown incapable of making a thread that isn't bait?

They're all the same. Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon, Spider-Man and all the others. Find a "tower" to clear the map, follow footprints, kill enemies, repeat.
Side quests: Collect all drones/artifacts/pigeons.
Open-world Ubisoft games with a different skin/setting.

Doesn't change the fact that Insomniac is struggling to make their own suggessful AAA IP. For almost ~15 years.

 

[The Legendary Warrior]

Sunset Overdrive is Insomniac IP. I guess you can count that as 1.

 

[Yossarian]

Even though I don't care about capeshit I think they are talented and did a good job with Spiderman. Rift Apart was good, not great, but worth playing. It's not their fault resistance didn't sell, it was a good series

Suggessful? How did that make it pass auto correct?

Every single open world game is the same then. Incredible.

It's kinda like saying all cars are the same, hey they got 4 wheels, an engine, and exhaust and get you from point a to b Bla bla bla.

But then you have your Mercedes and BMW vs, the Reliant robins of the world.

Insomniac is a premier games studio producing premier content.

Not really.
But Sony has different studios. And they're pretty much all Ubisoft open-world games. Just with a different skin.

 

[Vertigo]

It’s safe to say that Jimbo would’ve shut 343 down if he was the boss.

Someone has to do what’s necessary when results aren’t produced for 3 games back to back.

“Bu, bu Bundles!”

Dude, MS bundles their entire library of games … for 10$. From day one.
