Xbox and Bethesda Developer_Direct [OT]: Redfall, Minecraft Legends, Forza, Elder Scrolls Online Updates

[anonpuffs]

In the end who the fuck cares if Microsoft made it? Either buy an xbox/pc to play the game or don't. Microsoft may not have greenlit the game but they certainly own it now. Don't cry about it, that's loser talk. Rather than dump on it just treat it as if Microsoft paid to make it permanently exclusive, and ask Sony where their own indie gems are. It's certainly a valid question as Sony doesn't make very many of them anymore.

Dude.

March 2021 (Deal Closed) to March 2023 would only be 2 years. It's not even 2 years... since they've been bought. No offense, but you are incorrect on this one sorry.

A sale being announced in September 2020 does not mean the company has been bought. You can start saying its been bought only the day it has happened. Its disingenuous to say it has been 3 years since MS bought Bethesda, cause that's just not true my guy.

Bethesda has been officially owned by MS since March 9th 2021 - ( Source - https://tinyurl.com/edzfm2yn ) which means on March 9th, 2023 it will be officially 2 years since the ownership.

That's fine, that wasn't the focal point of my post anyway. I was just replying to posts which keep implying that MS 'stole' this game from Sony because it was somehow well into development by the time of the acquisition (when it obviously wasn't)

I said it was in development, I never said how far along it was. Considering pre-production is part of development and considering the director said he pitched it in 2017 I'm guessing it started between 2017 and February 2021. The director of HiFi Rush directed TEW2 not Ghostwire so he led another team while Ghostwire was made. Mikami admitted he had tried a playable build of Hifi in March 2022.

I can't find any source which says Mikami admitted that he tried a playable build of hifi in march 2022, this is the closest thing i could find:

What’s more, back in March 2022, Shinji Mikami said that his studio was working on a new non-horror-related Xbox exclusive. In fact, Mikami also said that the mystery game was the “complete opposite” of what some fans might expect. So it seems that the mystery game was Hi-Fi RUSH.

Can you share where you read that please.

We are discussing it because you made up some nonsense comment the game was completed in 2020 and attributed it to me. It makes no sense when the company was not under Xbox at the time so why would they? When challenged on it, you declined to provide anything and asked why are we discussing it.

It was not made up nonsense, it was in reply to posts like this which say that MS just bought a fully ready game and called it a day.

True. But didn't microsoft just buy the game and not build it?

I wish you would quote reply them as well.

Shinji Mikami wants Tango Gameworks to make smaller and non-horror games | VGC

The Resident Evil creator doesn’t want the studio to only be associated with a single genre…

www.videogameschronicle.com

Mikami drove this point home later in the interview by discussing an upcoming game being led by John Johanas, the director of The Evil Within 2, revealing that it isn’t a horror title. Mikami had previously confirmed that Johanas was working on a new game, but hadn’t given further information on it until now.

“John Johanas, who directed the DLC for The Evil Within and The Evil Within 2, is working on a completely new title that is the complete opposite of horror,” he told Famitsu. “It’s a really good game, so keep your eyes peeled.”

I know you are going to be obtuse but if someone high up in a dev team says it's a really good game, you expect they actually played it in some form of playable build. Unless you're on a gaming forum obviously where people claim they played a game they never owned.

You claimed I said those comments, not people are claiming this, and I told you to point out where i said it. You failed to do so. You are talking through your arsehole.

I didn't shout at you, I asked for facts. You lied the whole way through. You are always disingenuous and when caught in a lie, as you often are, you try to change the narrative.

Sony won't do indie because it doesn't make money. They literally don't care

Which is unfortunate. I certainly enjoy their high budget games but imo returnal was a more enjoyable experience to me than any of the uncharteds and engaged me more than god of war or spiderman.

That's false and is a blatant lie. Shuhei Yoshida literally now runs the PlayStation Indies operations with indie devs. Herman Hulst took over the Worldwide Studios which is what Shubei Yoshida used to run.

Sony's next indie "Season A Letter to The Future" is coming out January 31st of this year.

Shu has impeccable taste in games and he's big upping psvr2 lately which makes me really hyped for the 22nd

Well you can't exactly post a vague quote and then pre-emptively say don't be obtuse lol.

I don't doubt that he looked at some kind of a build of the game in 2022.

I also don't doubt that the bulk, if not all, of the development happened between 2021-2022.

If they’re indie games, why the fuck would Sony be making them?

Indie means INDEPENDENT, as in self-published INDEPENDENTLY by a small developer.


Sony doesn’t make indies because they wouldn’t be indies, they’d be Sony games.

If you mean low-budget games, say low-budget games.

Words have meanings, people. Use the right ones, it helps you be more credible when you do.

 

[thelastword]

If Drawn to Death was shadow dropped it would have been a GOTY contender in this direct....

Btw guys, where was Hellblade 2, that game was first shown in 2019......You always got a feeling that this game was slated for an earlier release..

@David Jaffe they're making fun of your game again!

My guess is they meant to say more AA, colorful games from Sony first party, which Team Asobi, Pixelopus and Media Molecule all do.

Are you cruising to lose a month here too?

Be nicer, or Rare won’t ask you back for another interview.

It's not even a Sony games lol
They just buy out temporary exclusivity, by some sort of help, in the development
No need to compare this and literally the games that come out under the PS Studios brand.

I said don't be obtuse because of your history...and here were are again.

What does the last sentence have to do with anything?

Put the shovel down. As you claimed, did I say the game was made in 2020? Either admit you lied or show the evidence.
