After mentioning that he’d like to make Drakengard 4 on PS4, but he’s unable to because he lacks the funds for development, Drakengard 3 Director Taro Yoko received a large number of messages expressing support and enthusiasm, many of which suggesting the use of Kickstarter.
He explained why Kickstarter is not an option, but he does plan to make something new this year, also mentioning that a spin-off might be on the menu, if he gets the chance.
IGN: "We talk to Yoko Taro and Hyung-Tae Kim about the ways that Stellar Blade is inspired by NieR: Automata, comparisons between EVE and 2B, and much more."
A sequel to Square Enix and Platinum Games' action role-playing game, NieR: Automata, has been teased by series creator Yoko Taro.
If it can be done right then amazing, yes please. Yoko Taro seems to change it up each time so I'm curious what a 'sequel' really means.
On a sidenote assuming this is indeed Nier 3 then I kinda wonder if Yoko Taro will stick to his guns of creating new characters and stories each time, or if he'll continue with 2B & co due to their skyrocketing in popularity. I guess he'll probably do whatever Squeenix pays him to do lol, but I'm hoping for the former. 2B and her gang got a decent enough conclusion (especially for a Yoko game) and I feel like continuing their story would ruin it.
Actually, now that I think about it, a new Nier game would technically be Nier 4 since the gacha Reincarnation was declared as the sequel to Automata and is therefore Nier 3.
Oh man, that game was a slog. Graphics and music were excellent though, and it's nice directly strongly to Automata.
Tifa is a good sign. There's at least some hope, lads.
Just maybe they'll leave things alone.
Plus, like people are saying - Taro don't play that sh*t.
ACE, a self-taught independent game developer, has made a name for himself in the rapidly expanding indie game development world by creating a project that has been garnering attention and intrigue.
i say Sony should hire this guy for a project!
Sony should approve of spin off Drakengard and bring to America!! Can't wait for that decision Sony!
looks like sony is losing interest on it's domestic market...with a consistent withdraw of investiment
I cant hold all these draknegard games! Cannot wait :3
I like this guy, i think i'll pick up 2 copies to show support.
