"Not too long ago, two new photos of the Playstation 4 Controller prototype were leaked online. Trusted sources around the web say these are indeed real photos of the real prototype controllers. We're going to breakdown every possibility of everything we can see in these photos right here and right now, just for you" -Retrospect Realm
Stellar Blade's creative director, Hyung Tae Kim, has also claimed that the game is deeply inspired by Nier: Automata.
I feel like Yoko is downgrading Automata because he has expressed multiple times he'd like to revisit the universe, but Squenix hasn't been keen about it. We know he loves 2B and would love to take her out for another spin, so maybe this is how he gets the company to think about it.
u do realise that Square made Nier a franchise after Automata right?
Taro is downplaying it cause hes not a snob like most of the directors that think their games are gods gifts to the human race.
he said the same thing when being interviewed during the development of Automata too, that he couldnt have done it without the devs.
hes just a humble guy rly.
I mean, Neir existed before Automata with both OG Niers and Drakenguard. I don't count NieR Replicant, since it's a remake of the OG games. Sure, we have Reincarnation, which is still stuck on mobile devices (quite a damned shame). I just remember Taro saying he'd love to revisit Automata if Square Enix lets him. I do recall there was supposed to be a sequel to Automata, but it wasn't confirmed and I'd imagine it was just for Reincarnation.
Enjoy Taro, he seems like a cool guy, who loves the ladies and is humble. But damn, don't put down one of your masterpieces.
I get he's giving them some credit, but i strongly disagree based on the demo. I honestly don't think any aspect of it feels good, it's not bad, it's just kinda ok but definitely a little jank. Also the souls like formula it is adopting does not help it imo. I was looking forward to this for years, now im just kinda let down honestly 🫤
Daniyal from eXputer: "Dragon Ball FighterZ was so close to a revival but ineffective communication and a dubious launch of an anticipated update botched that hope."
Jack 3,5
Mic
New D-Pad (good improvement)
New stick (good too)
Touch screen (can be useful for navigation on internet)
I hope L2/R2 have been modified too :)
It's funny, I hated this thing when I first saw it and now I'm loving it lol
And that new d-pad looks alot more comfortable for my thumb.
I love the speaker idea.
Reloading will sound awesome now.
I like having a mic in every PS4 control. Hope that's true.
Headphone jack is going to be useful especially when playing at nights.
I like the overall design think Sony did really well, it's all about substance.
Hope this will be the final prototype and be the control pad for PS4.
