'Fan-made Bloodborne Kart catches heat from Sony, forcing developers to SHIFT GEARS'

Bad writers believe that inserting cringey puns demonstrate superior writing ability and an insider knowledge. Here, it just feels very laboured especially as its the type of speech that is written but never said.

atleast they let them still release it xDD

thorstein140d ago (Edited 140d ago )

The developer is in agreement. It's not "forced."

This is old news.

Michiel1989140d ago

wdym? if they don't listen to them they won't be able to release it, so it's definitely forced.

"So Sony contacted us," the devs explain in a message posted to social media. "Long story short, we need to scrub the branding off of what was previously known as Bloodborne Kart. We will do this, but that requires a short delay. Don't worry, the game is still coming out! It'll just look slightly different. We don't have a release date yet, but we will let you all know ASAP when we do!"
"We were honestly expecting something like this to happen and the idea of having full creative control is kind of exciting!"

That's from the Dev. Doesn't sound forced at all. And it is expected due to copyright infringement.

Hidetaka Miyazaki 'knows for a fact' other FromSoftware devs want a Bloodborne PC port

Keep that hope alive, PC gamers.

Honestly a bloodborned PS5 Remaster and PC Port would have gone really well especially for this dry spell we seem to be in.

I think he is saying only bloodborne can make him wet.

Skuletor2d ago

They're probably referring to first party games.

Poor him. I have too much to play and it's not even funny.

VincentVanBro2d ago

Bud were you here for 2023? We’re drowning mate, no dry spell in sight.

-Foxtrot2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

It’ll happen at the PS6 launch in my opinion

We might get a PS6 Remake for launch like they did with Demons Souls for the PS5. The PC port may follow who knows.

I just wanna be walking around with my Deck playing Bloodborne like a absolute nerd on full blast so people can hear the shrieks.

"But there are millions of PC gamers out there still holding onto hope"

Game gets announced...and the complaints pile in to justify piracy. It's old so it should be 20 dollars, psn requirement means no buy but i will pirate, it's just a port they didn't even remake it and it doesn't have every graphics option ever so I'm getting the torrent.

Skuletor2d ago

Even so, that shouldn't have prevented Sony from releasing a FPS/resolution patch or upgraded PS5 release by now.

VersusDMC2d ago

Maybe the From Software engine is such a mess that it is not worth the cost or time for Sony. Bloodbourne is one of the lowest selling souls games.

And even with Elden Ring selling 20+ million they still haven't patched the PS5 version to play at 60fps. Only way to play elden ring on PS5 at 60fps is to play the PS4 version on PS5.

But maybe Bluepoint is working on a remake as that would be the only thing they could charge full price for and be worth the time and money.

Chard2d ago

Most FromSoftware fans would rather a port with the original art intact over a remake that messes with the assets and atmosphere

Elda2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

But instead Sony gives PS5/PC owners an option to buy a PS5/PC Until Dawn remaster/rework this year, something I highly doubt PS fans asked for. A Bloodborne PS5/PC remaster is highly anticipated among fans.

Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower is my fave boss fight from Bloodborne, a flurry of brilliant swordplay was that fight that left me salivating.
