DailyGame: Will Sony’s removing the camera to get the PS4 price reduced have long-term consequences for next-gen games? What does it mean for multiplatform titles?
Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher developer CD Projekt hosted its fiscal year 2023 earnings conference, and provided details about its games and business alongside comments on the use of generative AI and licensing its IPs for mobile games.
Though this news in a way should be good new trilogy making cash taking a break from cyberpunk and all that i would like to reminded everyone that the new cdpr is pro esg. There focus going forward is to make games for everyone so the next witcher will have less everything watch the swearing/blood be political the main character might just be a woman that is trans lesbian perhaps likes dogs who knows.
see video cfo cdpr there new esg vision

I am a witcher fan enjoyed cyberpunk but i know the old devs are all gone the people that made red engine are all gone so this is a new team with a new visions under the esg the same esg that looks at a company like sweet baby as visionaries.
So take this news with a grain of salt as the chance of witcher 3 magic again is very low seeing how starfield removed gore to appease the masses and we are gun ho with live service. We will see what this looks like but keep your expectations low.
I mean remember how netflix wither is being handled though yes more on that teams side than cdpr but yikes.
I will leave rebel wolves site they are made up from former cdpr devs

Though still hush hush on there new rpg.
IGN: "If our two-hour hands-on preview is any indication of the rest of the game, then Visions of Mana's fresh take on battle and class systems not only gives it the potential to meet the success of the originals but possibly even the chance to surpass them."
It's balancing old and new, then, and embracing a sort of breezy retro simplicity. Pleasing as that is, though, it so far feels a little shallow by comparison to other genre heavy-hitters. Despite moving to an open world and offering sumptuous presentation, Visions of Mana clings to the past and lacks truly fresh ideas of its own. It's a welcome return and a fun, bubbly, frivolous experience, but the Mana series looks set to remain in the shadow of Square Enix's premiere franchises for now.
We've already said no in other stories about this. I have never once owned a Eye or motion controller set up. It's just not for me. Yet, I own many games that have the ability to use those types of controllers. But since I don't "need" them and can use the DS3. I'm not missing out on anything. I'm glad the camera is not forced on us.
Depends if motion/camera games ever mature past party and child game phase.
Edit:
Wouldn't mind seeing a few more lightgun games.
Some lightgun games.
*Any* lightgun games...
I own the Eye, Move, Nav controller, and Sharpshooter. I would have preferred if Sony included the camera in the KZ bundle instead of a second controller.
I understand why they did it though. Most people don't care about Move. I'm sure Shadow Fall supports Move, but its a bit suspect that they didnt mention it. The only rational explanation is that Sony wanted to downplay the importance of the camera since they didnt want consumers to feel like they were being shortchanged by the lack of a camera in the bundle.
Probably very little if Sony had software or camera hardware that were worthy of mass adoption they would include it. But yes the mass adoption angle to game development will be held back when it comes to what little Sony's offerings could bring to the table.
No, because controlling games with a camera doesn't work, EyeToy showed it and Kinect stamped the confirmation on it.
