I've personally never been much for JRPGs, most of my Japanese game enjoyment came from racing games like GT, TXR and Choro Q. That said unlike many of their fans I didn't let them influence me into becoming a "OMG THING BUT JAPAN" type fag

All of those titles are dead now besides GT, which may as well be dead.

Not dead - on the Switch.

The Cruisn' game that came out was excellent.

Can confirm.
Cruis'n Blast is stupid fun.

The only reason Cruisn' still exists is because it's a Nintendo IP, and Raw Thrills is run by Eugene Jarvis, the creator of the series, and bringing back their old Midway arcade titles is kind of their thing.

Wasn't The Amazing Lucas MAGA three, four years ago? Now he's okay with Miles Morales replacing Peter Parker as the main Spider-Man because of racism? I'm confused as all hell.

I said it before in another thread, he's dipping into the black fragility market. He made his name known with anti-SJW shit and now he's pivoting for more lucrative markets. Like Shoe.

That would be like SquareEnix telling PlatinumGames to cover up 2B's design for Nier: Automata. The main character's striking design has become one of its biggest selling points. I don't think even Sony are that stupid, nor do I think the developers would get in bed with Sony if they asked them to make drastic changes.

My nigga, these same devs sold out to Tencent and started nerfing character designs in Nikke. You should have seen what the CBT had let alone what they had before partnering with Tencent, hell they had shower scenes in the code that they removed before release. They actually lost their main artist over this because he disagreed vehemently with the direction. They already nerfed the jiggle physics in Stellar Blade from the original trailer to when they announced being a PS5 exclusive. Shift Up is a public company now, they're gonna tone shit down.

A decade later and their grasp on vidya, direct or semi-related, is MUCH worse.

I think the bigger issue is not that they are a public company, but that Tencent is their second largest shareholder.

Nah, it's not just Tencent. Tencent has allowed other games of theirs be uncensored for the West before, Alchemy Stars for instance actually has much nicer skins. Shift Up's CEO is making the changes on his own because he wants to be more palatable to the stock market as a whole and has largely shifted from Destiny Child tier designs to something more mundane -- which is why their main artist quit. I think quite a few of their team quit, but I'm not too sure on that since I never saw a confirmation.

The only thing Tencent is largely guilty of is making greedier decisions. Pushing to squeeze as much as possible out of players, but I've never seen them demand any censorship and that narrative doesn't line up with Alchemy Stars or other games of theirs. That just comes off as cope to me. I'm not afraid to blame them for shit they're responsible for - like the minimal battlepasses and skins at exorbitant prices or shifting SSR diamonds from 100% SSR to 60% chance - as @Celebrate Nite pointed out, but censorship hasn't been one of them from my experience. I've seen Sony more actively step in than I have Tencent.

Either way, I don't think Stellar Blade is gonna be a Lies of P scenario. I'm not sure how Neowiz managed it, but they did and they've consistently followed through with every update. Stellar Blade is gonna be an action game that's more than likely gonna be another abysmal mess like so many before it. The jiggle physics was the only thing it had going for it in the trailers, which they toned down since.
 
Stellar Blade was always going to be a 7/10 at best, but now that it gets a Sony logo slapped on it, it will be hailed as the best action game to exist surpassing DMC at it's best. Also, the Soynyboys will be thrilled to be allowed to lust for attractive women for once and it will be VERY jarring for anybody that was paying attention to the "objectification" discourse.
 
I guess every game is somebody's favorite game.
Wait, how the fuck was Alien: Isolation "completely discarded"? I remember it doing fairly well critically, it just didn't sell well. Is this some stupid "the game didn't exist until my favorite popular Youtuber played it" nonsense?

I thought that as well. I THINK he meant to say "Colonial Marines", but instead of double checking, he went full retard and posted it anyways.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=SP0-P6uyQV0A little over a year ago. I doubt that they'll change the model, since it looks like a considerable amount of work has been done on the game already, and changing the models on both Eve and Lily would set development back significantly. But of course, this IS modern Sony; I wouldn't put it past them. Especially since they're publishing now.

I remember in one of Volound's videos, some of the former CA employees have said bad shit regarding Isolation's development process. Critically it was good, commercially and development-wise it was shit. (though chalk this up to Creative Assembly's incompetency as a gaming dev for the latter to occur).

"Also, could Forspoken truly be a failure if I created this petition"

Well, with an ambitious goal of 100 and at 73 whole signatures as of right now, I'm going to press X to doubt that Square will consider that. Aside from the amount of insane hubris you have to have to go full "well I liked it therefore I desire another sequel made for ME". Though a part of me would love it to get some traction to force a Morbius scenario, if by some unholy black magic Square actually was suckered into making a sequel nobody gives a shit about, it would be pure gold.

>"waaaaah, fuck what everyone said, we need to help them make a sequel"
the cope is radiating all the way to outer space. Note the "I"s and "ME"s, as if this person's petition and oppinions are so important that it will actually matter in the long run.

Forspoken will go down as one of those games where it doesn’t really know why it exists, but it also will go down as one of those games where one questioned why it needed to exist in the first place.
