My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

Sony said in 2022 that it wanted to release 12 live service games by 2025, but by the time 2025 rolled around it had cancelled eight of those projects and effectively walked away from the entire strategy.
Good people have to die for idiot king to realise their own stupidity. RIP Bluepoint, you guys are so close to remake Bloodborne.
The plan was one company making TWELVE live services in one year.
Hey, Sony execs, quick game : make me a list of 12 currently running, succesful live service games, from any company. Oh, and don't count mobile shit, you're a console seller, that's not the experience you're providing even if you wanted to.
Bonus round : estimate the rough cumulated gaming time of all of your user base and divide it by 12. Now estimate the level of engagement these freaking games require. And take into account that there may also be other games around, and some people may want to play them too, amazingly.
Oops.
if they were making 12 of anything, they were expecting some to succeed and some to fail
And since a live service game comes with the expectation that it's not complete and will get more content later, making so many expecting most of them to fail is a big fuck you to anyone who actually bought the ones that get abandoned.
They really don't think these things through, do they?
If Sony is walking away why the fuck is that abomination Horizon game still being worked on that literally nobody fucking asked for
12 planned, 8 cancelled, 4 still alive, horizon one probably one of those 4, probably kept alive because it's almost finished and it's a known IP?
That's exactly it. They were TOO close to making BB remake a reality, so they had to be stopped.
We all know it's all about Bloodborne.
Definitely. It's too bad I can never replay the original Blood born again. Game's great, love the story, art, gameplay. But it only uses 20% of my GPU so it's just pointless to play it now /s
Stop letting cocaine make decisions.
How did I not know they had a remaster studio? No wonder they kept remaking 5 year old games every 5 years.
The studio's artists were great with making remakes with incredibly high graphic fidelity, but fucked up a lot of the original art design in the process. Should've made an original single player game in another timeline.
