In a conversation with IGN, Soul Sacrifice creator Keiji Inafune confirmed that not only does he want to do a sequel to his PS Vita-exclusive game Soul Sacrifice, but that he’s actively talking to Sony about making it happen.
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
A Soul Sacrifice sequel on Vita is great but I hope Soul Sacrifice also gets a new installment on PS4
DO IT! The first isnt even out but the demo makes me crave a second one.
My Vita time is split between Jet set radio HD(thx PS+) and this demo, its addictive only a few more days till the full game.
History is filled with mythical lore that is heavily present in Soul Sacrifice so another game that dives into these lore is always welcomed.
Keiji Inafune no matter what some may think about him, the guy has a proven track record to make great games.
Seeing that this is an SCEJ game, they must not allow to let this ip go to a 3rd party dev, just like what happened to demon's souls (although Sony hold the name of the ip, it's successor went on as a 3rd party game)
Nice idea but there is no guarantee the game will do well. Even selling well on Vita does is not a direct correlation to making "enough" money to justify producing a sequel.
Interesting concept but I think the "spell" system will turn some people off... no simple sword and board, etc. But, to each it's own and hope it does well.
