The company also doesn't expect to release any game from major existing first-party franchises until April 2025

-> Any new existing major first party titles. This means we are only getting new IP this year.

:marseysmugretard:

But my fav was announcing last of US part 3 for 2035 :marseythumbsup:

Like wtf happened to gaymdevs ? Like it took rocksteady 6 years to make 3 Batman games and 10 years to make suicide squad then it took naughty dogs 10 years to make 6 games (don't include remasters with remasters it's 19 games (4 jack games separate for ps3 then years later for ps4 then uncharted 1-3 hd remaster and last of us ps4) ) and now it took them 4 years to make a remaster of 2020 game that was already 4k and now more than 10 years to make 1 sequel

There's no way people are going to accept them rolling out a new generation of consoles any time soon. The five year cycle from like NES to PS2 era doesn't make sense today because games aren't being made quickly enough. It used to be that you could expect an entire series to come out within the span of a few years on the same platform.

This generation has been terrible so far - it's mostly been just a handful of open world and live service slop and a bunch of last gen ports, remakes and remasters.

Yup, with dev cycles approaching a fricking decade per game (remember when that was such an absurd amount of time that a game got famous, Duke Nukem Forever, for being in development heck for that long?), the generation needs to last way longer, which keeps the age-old tradition of holding back the entire industry technologically because these megacorps still need to make their money off the last shitbox they sold :marseyeyeroll:

Modern gaming has actually become so creatively bankrupt and insulting to the consumer that I don't buy new shit unless it is something I know I will love (Elden Ring, new Tekken, etc.) and if I want a "new game" I just go into my massive back catalog of games and play some GOATed game I missed on PS2 or whatever :marseyshrug:

>creatively bankrupt

I go on about this too much, but millennials suck at this shit.

They stuck with YA shit well into adulthood (or "adulting"hood :marseypuke:) and openly venerate "trauma" or "sooo relatable" narratives for activist purposes.

Might've been considered novel the first couple times, but it's currently all they produce for movies, shows, games, comics, etc. and it's getting tired af.

And I still don't have a good reason to want one :marseyclueless:

I've been waiting for a price drop and some exclusives to motivate me and so far the price hasn't changed and Gran Turismo is the only game I feel like I'm missing
